DangerouslySweet: Start a relationship with someone if you knew they were terminally ill???
I know someone that did,,,haven't talked to them for a while though. seems to me that if you fell in love with someone than nothing else would matter,,I know that is only my view,,,just should not stop you from loving them.;-}

career working with people that are sick or dying i don't think i could

If i really loved her from the bottom of my heart i would do all that is humanly possible to comfort her in her last few days. I would cherish them as everlasting memories of my beloved.

I agree its very much a situational thing.. depends on the level of feelings etc.. I wouldn't say never.. but I wouldn't just for the sake of it (would be pity based..not right).. having said that.. friendship.. definitely (if there were a basis for same)

A part of me has to agree with you. The career you chose, in my opinion, takes not only a strong willed person, but also a person with unending kindness and caring for mankind to be able to care for them in their dying hours. I truly admire you.

Morning Aries, guess i've seen thepain first hand and don't feel i could tho it, but yes as a friend definately. If i was already in the
relationship ans my partner became ill, then of course i would be there

that were terminally ill, also worked with the elderly , part of the job is also supporting the families
i think that was the hardest part and it affected me deeply and made me question many things.

Yeah.. never say never (for me) but I strongly suspect that I would take a similar stance TBH

It's been my experience that when faced with life and death situations, whether it be yourself or a loved one, we do tend to question many things and even change our thought patterns.

so true, once we are given these new stages in life, we can find ourselves very different than what we may have thought, people that I know, some in my family, though strong in mind and body that sweared they would never live if put in a situation such as ,stroke or other limitations,,they themselves changed and overcame their past thoughts and even give more to the world in ways they never dreamed.

I think if you are in the relationship you view it differently and find that strengh, but starting a new
relationship is different

I think you're right of course, however, for someone it may be a different story,,everyone is differnt,,well,,many are similar and then there are some individuals that surprise us all, guess that is what makes it interesting, the human factor, predictably unpredictable.I think if you are in the relationship you view it differently and find that strengh, but starting a new
