I was in a car crash when I was 17 I damage my optic nerves I have limited vision and I can't make eye contact so it's hard to meet women which is a big problem for me Because would love to be in a relationship. I would also like to work but I can't because of my eye sight. Seeing other people Get new jobs start families Do sports and activities they enjoy makes me so angry and upset because I see no hope of having a relationship and I can't do things I want to do because of my eyesight. I also have Hardly any of my money left from my compensation because I overspent And was ripped off a few times so don't know how I'm going to live when this money goes I see no future and really don't know what to do .
