Does anyone have advice about dating with OCD?

Yes. Do it!

Be open and honest about your situation, and make sure that they are empathetic to it. Having a partner who is stable enough not to take it personally when you have bad days is really important.

Dont

I wouldn't do it. I would try to get your OCD under control first. Believe me you don't want to bring it into someone else's life. I have lost many relationships even with those at first who were understanding

I tried but I feared intamicy eating her cooking and more. She tried to make it work but eventually she needed intamicy and she went elsewhere for it.

It depends on your level and type of OCD and the person you are with. I've had problems in the past, but those are my experiences. Talk to your therapist about any concerns you might have during the relationship. Listen to what your instincts are telling you. If something doesn't feel right, it probably isn't (I ignored my instincts and ended up getting manipulated a couple of times. One time ending very badly). Make sure that the person you are with will be understanding and willing to work with you if you need help. Don't date someone that will raise your anxiety, or has a condition that would exacerbate yours (I dated someone who had a manic episode and ended up living with me at my parents house for a couple weeks, where my contamination OCD was the worst. Before this happened, the anxiety from the relationship triggered the worst Harm OCD episode in recent times, so I was already in bad shape. I also may have triggered him with post rumination texts about things he did that upset me). I have also found some people that are very understanding about it. Even though there was some manipulation with my first (sort of) relationship (he tried to convince me I would fall in love with him, even though I wasn't attracted to him), he went out of his way to try to help me out, even after we broke up. We are actually still friends. The guy I'm talking to now I've had full conversations about it and he has been pretty accepting, although we have yet to meet in person, and I'm a bit afraid I will end up hurting him (nervous guy). My advice: Take the risk, but be cautious.
