Hi
My best friend call me Doune, but my real name is Gerdine. I am 29 years old...30 in a few weeks. I am here to make new friends because I am hard of hearing, almost completely deaf. I have a moderate to severe hearing loss from 250-8000HZ. My MCL was found to be 75 dB in the left ear and 90 dB in the right ear. Doctors and audiograms say that I have a nerve problem that getting worse every year and there's no way to stop it. One day, i will be completely deaf! That's not a good news at all...
My hearing loss really spoiled my life. I feel like really limited in everything, even in making new friends. My personal life is a disaster, no boyfriend or lover. Who wants a deaf girl? Even online, I am always ashamed to meet people and I flee all meeting request... I know it's not normal... I need to have more confident in myself..., but it's hard when people get mad at you because you can't hear what they say...Everyday is a new challenge for me at work. The customers hate to repeat, but my managers are nice and help me a lot. I am working on a big store and i have to help dozens of customers every day...that stress me a lot! :Oops:
In spite of my hearing loss, i am a very pasionate woman. I love to talk, love to laugh, love to do things i really enjoy. I looooove love love photography (outdoor, fashion, children, animals) and graphic design, I love working with my hand and my mind, create thing like cards for announcement, wedding, baby... I love to cook and decorate also, but I don't do it often...
But one thing that i'd really like is to make friends, good, very good friends, deaf or not on any gender... I just need someone who can understand me and have good times.
Thanks!
