Hello all, I'm Geoff, just feeling alone wondering if I will ever find someone to share life with, who has a urostomy and knows how hard it is day to day.

So many ostomates feel the same way. Keep living your best life and hopefully, you'll find someone along the way.

Hey Geoff, sharing with us is a good start. Lots of us have been where you are. Things get better for us as we learn from other’s experiences and our own experimentations. Folks here are wise, caring, compassionate and mostly experienced. You’re in a good place.
I think you got good advice from WIGirl77.
Respectfully,
Mike

Hi Geoff,
I am now 73 years of age and have had my ostomy since I was 15 -- 58 years. I am now with my second husband for 38 years and have an active, wonderful sexual relationship. I found that finding a person who knows about ostomies and isn't upset by them is important. I was careful to let anyone I was getting close to in a romantic way know what was going on with my body. I never had any problems, but I was very careful who I encountered! Best to you, Marilyn
