Should I Disclose My Health Status?

Share

Dear Yemisi,
I am  a civil engineer and an undergraduate, aged 26. I have been in a serious relationship for over three years with a lady who has total trust in me; she loves me so much. I know everything about her, but I don't know how to disclose my health condition to her. I am  asthmatic. I don't want to lose her.

How do I get out of this?

Jude.

 

 

 



Dear Jude,
I sincerely appreciate your honesty. You have nothing to lose by telling her your health challenge. This, to me, will endear her more to you.

If you have any serious commitment to each other, kindly be open to her without hiding any information.

Being asthmatic is not a crime and you’ll not be the first or last to have such and there is the tendency for you to outgrow it. It seems as if you’ve allowed this condition of yours to becloud your thinking. You are not helping matters by keeping this very close to your chest.

You can overcome the problem by trying as much as possible to identify what triggers the attack and consciously avoiding it while also taking your drugs as prescribed.

Once she is carried along, she would know how to take good care of your health if there is true love and even check your excesses.You’ll be saving yourself from any embarrassment of being jilted midway into your relationship.

Be positive at all times that you’ll get over the problem with the assistance of your creator.
