It is always difficult to find a partner or maintain a relationship, regardless of the circumstances. No, I do not have a partner, but that is mostly by choice. I have read stories on Facebook where people have lost relationships because of HS, but some relationships have also been made stronger. It is always a good idea to be completely honest with someone with whom you are involved. If the person chooses not to be involved because of your illness, it is best for you. Nothing is worse than getting into a relationship with someone without compassion. Don't be discouraged by this: there are still compassionate people out there whose strength will strengthen you. You will find someone. Never give up hope.
