If you really do not care what others think you would not be posting anything on a public forum asking what random strangers think you should do.

Concentrate on youself and get to the point soon where you really do not care what others think.

I wasn't saying it'd be gone in a year, though I'd really wish it'd happen that way. I said I'd need to rest up for a full year in order to get my health and strength back to normal state even if my illness would miraculously cured on its own now.

I wonder where you got that impression from?

Well, that's an interesting way to look at it. I never thought about it that way. But no, that is not an excuse for anything at all. If a right person had come my way today and if I were healthy and able I'd certainly go for it and build something out of it. Unfortunately that's not the case.

Have you made your appointment at the sleep lab yet?

Thanks SF for taking the effort to reply in a such a meaningful way. I really appreciate it.

For your question above, I've just found out that they won't. Someone here has already speculated about me using the illness as an excuse to avoid having a relationship. When would they stop? Human nature, I suppose.....

Actually I was asking what others would do if they were in my shoes, not what I should do. I know exactly what I should do and I'm doing it.

Love Joe's answer, we all hae a terminal illness called life!!! What do you really want? Would you like to be in a relationship? If so let go and see what happens...., I'm diverced many years, childless, many friends and it would be great if I met my match but in the meantime I'm living my life as you should....
hope you feel better.

I thought it was pretty clear, and in line with what others create threads about.

"This is my situation, what would you do?"

To answer the OP: been in a similar situation, and recommend getting your health in order. People are going to talk regardless so do what you need to do.
