I can't answer your question but my best friend just got married and he's paraplegic. He's had no problems dating before he was married.

Best of luck to you!wine

Hello Gemma!!!
Welcome to CS!
cswelcome danceline balloons
My brother just had his right leg amputated below the knee a few months ago due to complications with diabetes. He is single but unfortunately is not on this singles site. His leg has not healed yet to the point that he can be fitted with a prosthetic. He will be spending at least the next 6 months in a nursing home/rehabilitation center. wave

Hi Gemma. Nice to see you.

When I search at advanced I can chose disabled, and this list came up:



158 women under disabled, but it say not what the disability is about only.

The word 'disabled' pisses me off.

It's an environment that is disabling, not the person who can't shift a 12 foot glass door, or levitate up steps.

I'm guessng there may be many members who have different abilites, but don't tag themselves as disabled on a dating website.

A girl I was with years ago had a condition in which she was born with 7 - 8 fingers. She was the fastest typist I ever seen using a keyboard. She could do anything with her hands that I could.

Okay sorry about that.
It is listed in the search criteria here on cs under that label.
But then again those are 20years old.
Didn't mean to piss you are anybody you care about off Jac.

GEMMA, listen I meant no offense.
It was just one possible way of finding some folk
here at cs categorized that way.

By the way, I just found out the list of the 158 is everybody who has ever been here and not deleted, so many has not been online for months and years. But the first ones has. Good luck.

Supposedly, someone who is real good and trained can use all 10 moving like a blur. I noticed though that most people use 4 - 6 at the most.

Disabled has been largely replaced by accessible....and it's generally people with a 'range of abilities' we talk about these days...

I don't use all 10...I'm fast but not a great typer...the backspace is the most over used button lol.
It's certainly a skill...John laughs at me when he sees me typing...he is a one finger at a time person on the keyboard.

When I get into it I can use 4 but thats it for me. I never done any keyboard training, I just have my own way of doing it and yes, I stare at the keyboard and not the screen laugh
