You seem to be having trouble finding guys to date that won't be put off by your bedwetting. From what I've read, I think part of your problem is lack of self-confidence, and a major cause of that is you can't keep the sheets dry. You assume (probably correctly) that most guys don't want to get soaked in the middle of the night. The first thing you need to do is find a good diaper that works for you, and you probably won't find it at the local Wal-Mart. Check out www.incontinencesupport.org and click on the link to cloth diapers. There is a very good discussion there on both disposable and cloth diapers, how they work, and how to make them work better for you. (After reading it myself, I switched from disposables to cloth with plastic pants and very rarely have leaks anymore) Once you figure out what works best for you, it should be easier to find dates. Some men will still be put off by bedwetting but some of them won't, especially if you can assure them that the only thing likely to get wet is the inside of your diaper. Good luck and hang in there. |
