Would you date a person with a disability? (66)
One time it happened by mistake but i'm older now and you never know. I'd like to at least see more in her than the arm she didn't have.

I have nothing against anybody with anything...which should not even be mentioned...the "normal" people think they are the be all and end all pitying the rest...as long as they are alive, even dead...being it fauna and flora too...they count very much in my book...and no they are the ones with the sense...

My best friend is paraplegic since his teens. I was best man in his wedding in May. I am disabled and never married (bipolar). It depends on the person, but it's difficult to find someone who has an understanding of such things.
I hope your brother can find someone Didi.

My recent ex had a disability. When you fall for someone you see past it and love them regardless.

As her debilitating condition progressed it became increasingly difficult. Eventually she had to move back to the south coast to be with her family.It was so sad, when we first met we would go climbing and mountain biking together, but within 18 months she was in a wheelchair. I used to carry her into the pub or into her flat, she never gave up.

Yes, I had actively dated someone with relapsing remitting MS. the disease finally took her years later. Somethings were uncomfortable but manageable.

Wow Ken, didn't know but (from what I know about the Bipolar issue) I can empathize with your struggle. I think that my brother may have given up on marriage, but I still wish that he could find someone who cares enough to take him seriously.I hope your brother can find someone Didi.

Oh my, sorry to hear about this. What an experience that must have been for her, and for you. I've only ever seen that scenario in movies, but you both actually lived it.It was so sad, when we first met we would go climbing and mountain biking together, but within 18 months she was in a wheelchair.

Really Jac? Isn't that dependent upon the type of disability that the person has, and how well he/she manages it?------ This poll is Archived ------

Nice of you to have overlooked her disability, to see and be with her Gal. It takes patience, understanding and compassion to be with someone with medical issues.

Wow Tru, that was very loving and very dedicated care that you gave her. I'm sure she was proud that you were such a good son to her. Lovely...------ This poll is Archived ------

It wasn't sarcasm, it was a different perspective.I really don't like the word 'disabled'.
I really don't like the vibe I'm getting off this thread.

Would you date a person with a disability?(Vote Below)
He's still single, never married, is employed, owns & drives his own car, owns his own home... but he's not dating the way he once did. Is it still an option?
Ladies, would you date someone like him?
