NOTHING is easy when you have fibro, nothing. Fibro affects every single thing you do with your body, how you speak, your emotions, whether you can be touched or if it causes too much pain...everything. So no it absolutely is not easy to maintain a current relationship, even if you have the most understanding partner on Earth. The only way your partner will truly understand what you go through is if they have it themselves. On the flip side, yes it can certainly be very difficult to find a partner. My only recommendation for finding a partner is definitely do not try to hide your disease. It'll come out eventually anyway, and it should be sooner rather than later. Be open and honest with them about your limitations, or heck, even find a partner who also has fibro so they know exactly what you're going through.
