Dating can be challenging for anyone at any stage in life, but
having IBD and/or other chronic conditions adds another level of
difficulty that can be disconcerting. Angela Cohen was diagnosed
with Crohn’s disease after her intestine perforated. Her long-term
relationship ended not long after and she was thrust into the
dating world. What she discovered while going on more than a few
"first dates” was illuminating not only about how IBD and other
autoimmune conditions are perceived by potential partners but also
about herself and what she wants to get out of dating, as well as
her life goals.
