if you have a skin problem or scars from a problem, dose it put guys/ladies off. I have two or three problems going on. The main is called "Sweet syndrome" which starts out as small blisters and developes into quite nasty sores and they can leave awful scars.It hits my legs, arms and bum, I love sex with a passion but i am low on confidence because of this, it's a part of my life and it's not catching. I just wondered if anyone else out there has a problem that they wished they did'nt have !! |

I have very sensitive skin and can look blotchy. I also get shaving rash quite often which isn't a good look. 
Question is, do you mention it before a meet or hope they don't notice?! I say nowt and no-one has ever mentioned it either.  |

some skin problems would put me off some wouldnt
I have to be honest if i met a guy or saw one in a club that had blisters and sores about his body then yes it would put me off simply because sore are in effect open wounds that can weep and bleed and i would give that a wide birth, maybe part ignorance of not knowing what it was and i wouldnt want to take any chances
However skin probems that i understand such as psoriasis does not bother me as i know its harnless |

Yup
I have vitiligo which is a condition where your skin lacks pigmentation so doesn't colour. It is progressive and no treatment has worked, so I am stuck with it.
In all areas other than round my groin I can manage by simply not sunbathing due to the joy of being naturally pale skinned.
But as with a lot of guys, I am darker round my pubic area so it does show up.
I have only ever had 1 meet mention it upfront in 12 years of doing this and he thought it may be contagious ! (it isn't)
Some people will ask me about it in the post shag comedown and no one has ever been phased in the slightest when I say what it is.
Infact, it usually leads to another round of fun and frivolity.
I know it is there and I am concious of it when it comes to the 'big reveal' (i wish) so in some ways yes it does initially affect me.
Having said that, I haven't let it stop me from meeting and I have grown to quite like my cock in it's little 'desert camouflage' outfit 
It is part of what makes me unique !
I should imagine that some people may be phased if they saw 'sores' on your legs but you may find (as with me) that the 'problem' is bigger in your own head than it is in other peoples.
Just be honest with people - some will see it as an issue, but most won't as long as they are aware. |

i suffer with Psoriasis and it does knock my confidence with new people but i am also ok with having it now as i know there is nothing i can do about it, tried all the treatments ointments and creams and its a little better but not much, but i do feel the need to tell a new meet about it |

Thanks to all of you who have responded to my partner on this one. Tbh, her 'problem' is - like anyone else afflicted - only as big as she makes it herself. The couple we met about 10 days ago hadn't even noticed anything until she mentioned it 2 hrs into the meet! Any visible condition which makes you feel 'less of a person' is bound to affect your confidence, so anything that can reverse your own self-image has to be good, doesn't it???
Thanks once again to all of you  |
