I know how you feel, even though it's pointless doing the oh poor me routine, sometimes i feel ripped off because while everyone else was out confidently strutting their stuff in their twenties and sorting out life partners etc, i was battling with the confidence-sapping day to day IBS. It's not easy to put your best foot forward and convince someone you've taken a liking to that you are the person for them when you are battling to feel like a normal person. I am staring down the barrel of 40! and while not single, don't really consider that i have met my soul mate either. I have to say that i have made huge leaps forward in my health since finding this site (thanks H) and combining the hypno/fiber/eating better has brought me to near normalcy. Of course everyone is different but i suggest that you launch an all out attack using all means available to you to stabilise your health, allowing you to pursue far more important things such as dating a hottie! All the best Ralph
