Thank you so much for your support!
But I think I was also hiding the issue to myself. I expected so much from this relationship that, for once, I didn't want the incontinence to rule my life.
Also, like everybody else's I wanted to show the best of me to seduce my new girlfriend. I wore makeup, lingerie, skirts or cute jeans... I needed to feel sexy and attractive. You can understand that wearing bulky granny pulls ups wasn't the plan
Pads, for a girl, are much more acceptable in my mind, other people mind and I hoped my girlfriend mind.
I often wear pull ups in a lot of situations. Mostly when I want to feel safer or when access to clean toilets is complicated. But the downside of bigger protections is that it's more complicated to change.
And I guess you're suppose to keep them on longer? With my urinary retention issues and regular dribbling (or more) I really struggle with odours. My protections gets smelly quite fast. So when dating or remain very close to someone, I feel very uncomfortable when I have to stay with the same protection for an extend period of time
Don't you feel bad when you're sitting close to someone with a protection that is getting wet for more than 2 hours?
With pads I can freshen up more often and avoid smelling too awful at the end of the day. So I went for a lot of pads, change of clothes and panties, don't drink too much and hope for the best...
I know it might have be better to be more upfront about my issues.Edgewater said:Sorry that your relationship did not work.
I would recommend that you not underplay your situation next time. It is always better to be over padded and not need it, then to have leaks when you are underprepared. This whole start light and pray that all works out is doomed to fail as the reality of IC is that the worst will happen at the worst possible moment!
