That was very interesting to read, I never thought about that.  I would think people would like you more when you are recovering, since you're not so into your ED.  I guess the people who were in your life before the ED would like you more when you're out of the ED, but maybe people you developed relationships with during the ED wouldn't, because maybe the relationship developed because there was a common ground of an ED, or something else.  Hmm.

I don't feel like any of my relationships have been sacrificed because of my ED, but maybe I don't know.  I think people are attracted to my sense of humor and kindness, which has remained throughout my ED.  I don't know if I'll ever not have an ED, but hopefully my personality will remain the same.  Maybe my ED is part of my personality now.
