I started seeing a super guy a few months ago. I eventually started wondering about his weird schedules and time frames. I also noticed that sometimes he was snappy and cross for no reason, or quiet and brooding, and that seemed out of character for him, because usually he was happy and giving and just all-around great. Recently he told me that he has clusters. I was with him when he had a really bad night and I was frightened. So, being the resourceful person that I am, I found this website. All of a sudden, I understood everything. I copied everything I could (it took me three days to copy!) and shared it with him. He was really surprised that there was a website for cluster sufferers. I hope the info will be helpful to him.
I have a question for anyone who could help me. What do I do when he gets this pain? I tried to stay out of his way and just check on him now and then. I felt like crying. I felt helpless. I felt scared. I wanted to be near him, but I know that when I have pains, or even when I have a rotten day, I just want to be left alone. I didn't want to say or do the wrong thing. I don't now. But I don't know what to expect. And I don't know how to act. I feel like crying a mountain of tears for this wonderful man who has to endure the kind of torture I witnessed. I don't want him to know how I feel because it may embarrass him. I hope someone can give me a word of advice. Because it's too late to turn back now. I believe I'm falling in
lo...lo...love. Thanks. Thinking of you all.
