Steveno, that is not an easy question. I think it depends on the disability and the person with it. This isn't a black and white question, but one with shades of grey. There are people who handle being disabled much better than others, and disabilities that would be easier to handle than others. So...good question.

I already have. I dated someone who was deaf. She was gorgeous. It was fun learning to sign and she could read anyone's lips so I really didn't have to learn a lot. It was funny b/c she could tell you what people were talking about across the room, mall, etc.
But yea, they are no different. You could be disabled one day, wouldn't you want someone to love you?

Very good question again.
Again it would depend on the level of the disability and how I was feeling about it.

I could'nt agree more. I have a gal pal who has epilepsy. We were at a movie when she had a seisure, and it scared the crap out of me. I had no idea what so ever to do for her. Fortunately, she came out of it as quickly as she went into it.
I was stunned, I had never witnessed anything like that up close and personal.
She is one of my closest personal friends and we get together on a regular basis, but there is no romance there.

Steveno: Would you date someone with a disability?
Is being broke considered a disability?
Seriously I cant say until I meet a man and until I know what his disability is. Some disabilities dont bother me and some do. I dont think I could date some man with a mental disability. Physical disabilities dont seem to bother me but mental ones do and I dont think I could handle them.

It appears every woman I meet is a real "Nutcase" and I am wondering if they should be considered disabled??

It depends.
How evolved are we, really, spiritually?
We all see ourselves as spiritual beings, and we are.
But, the trueness of our Self comes out in questions
such as this.
A date.
Can we see and relate to their spirit?
Are we stuck in the ego's choice?
Do we make a choice for Spiritual Love
or choose
fear and ego?
A choice between two consciousness es.
Choose again.

I dated a deaf guy, and he was a lotta fun, he seemed happy, he could read lips, and sign, and he talked a little loud, but I thought it was all part of his charm.But yea, they are no different. You could be disabled one day, wouldn't you want someone to love you?

A deaf mute....
But then I would have to hide all the pens & pencils so she could not leave "notes"..

Here is a question that has no gray area. Diabled people need love also and they do have feelings. They can't be as eloquent as a person who is not(as far as expression). I guess this is a question of whether or not one has an open mind. I was in the Phillipines and dated a lady who was in a wheelchair. She definately had needs and was a wonderful person. I just left because my time was up and I had to rotate backt to the U.S.

Steveno: Would you date someone with a disability?
Morning all!
Good questions Steveno. My wife developed epilepsy during the years we were married but it was completely controlled by medication. Dated a gal that was deaf while in college but, quite honestly, she was so good at lip reading it was hard to even catch that fact. Type of handicap would play a huge factor. Of course, you're assuming you actually have control of who you fall in love with; big assumption!------ This thread is Archived ------
what about people with a learning disability a friend of mine has one most people dont even pick up on it when she meets someone its a minor problem she has in fact when she tells people they usally think she is full of it but she not thats how minor her learning problem. for the blokes would any of u consider going on a date with her.she is single and i think any bloke would be luck to have her. she is one of the most caring honest thoughtful person i have ever met.

Very well put Dru. My ex-boyfriend suffered a brain injury from a motorcycle accident. We stayed together for 3 years after that. Unfortunately, his mood swings got too severe & his family refused to help me or include me in the comments to his doctors. Meanwhile, I was starting to get emotionally & physically abused. Without the help of his family to back me up, it grew impossible for me to stay. It broke my heart, but I had to leave him for my own safety & sanity.
