Loc: Ewing, NJ, USA (IBS-D, Vegetarian)
I had IBS before I started dating Mac, I got officially diagnosed the first time about month after breaking off a long term relationship with someone else, but I'd had it for a few years. Mac knew about it sort of before we started dating. His way of asking me out was he came to my dorm room door, and asked me to ask him out on whatever my version of coffee was, since he knew I couldn't drink it! We ended up going for a long walk the next evening.
He's great about making sure I eat, that I have things I can eat, that we go out to places where I can eat something there, he cooks for me, eats what cook no problem, always asks me if he can do anything to make me feel better, helps out around the house with my fibro (in fact will drive me to school when it asks up so much I can barely walk), takes me to the doctor's, and is more worried about me most of the time than I am! He also knows I want to be held when I don't feel well (weird quirk of mine) and oblidges when he can!
In fact, he's making me breakfast in bed this morning since my fibro's acting up (we were out late last night at a holiday party for his lab).
