what do you think of someone with a disability?

Question

do you or would you ever date someone with a disability..im not trying to be mean if others thing this is a mean question

Answer 1

someone with a disability doesn't make a person any better or worse than anyone else.it really depends on a combination of different factors that determines whether i'd date them or not.for example, if someone is gorgeous but a psychopath, i wouldn't date him.

Answer 2

Well i had a son with a learning disablity, and he was very well liked by all of the cheer leaders, and football players, and wrestler, he had no problem, and i believe if he would not of died in the apt fire that took his life, he would of ended up married, and had childern. All because someone has a disablity , what ever it may be , does not mean that they are not loveable, or want the same as everyone else does, cause they do. So yes i would date, or even marry someone with a disablity, if we got along, and fall in love. I do not see them any different then anyone else. By the way some young girl left a rose on the door steps of where he died, and told them not to move it. I am still trying to find that young girl to thank her.....Oh and i am mental disable, on SSA, i wasn't all the time, but i am now.

Answer 3

Every able person has some type of disability, starting with being imperfect. Humans are imperfect beings. People get so caught up in the labels that tell us what is normal and what is disabled. I like to think we are all "ables" with different types of challenges in our lives. So to answer your question, if I thought about not ever dating someone with a disability this world would be one lonely place for me. Because I would have missed out on a great love and and would have missed sharing in a great challenge. How bout you?

Answer 4

I don't think there is anything wrong with people that have a disability. Most of the time its not a persons own fault for being that way, they were just dealt a bad card so to speak. In my opinion having a disability is no different than some people having a bigger nose or bigger ears than other people or what ever, no two people are the same, but we are all special

Answer 5

Well, since I have High Functioning Autism, I'm not the one to judge. I'm more afraid that I won't be able to get a boyfriend because I'm so socially awkward:( It really depends. I think I probably wouldn't date somebody who was physically disabled, not because I'm being judgemental or anything (my favourite uncle is, so again, I can't judge), but I just don't see myself there. If my perfect guy was physically disabled, I would though...it really would depend on the situation. I probably wouldn't approch somebody with a disability for date (or anyone else for that matter) unless I was friends with them first.
Ok, so basically in the long message I just said that I would if it was the right person, but I don't see that happening. And no matter the person, their clothes can NOT clash! I wouldn't accept that!

Answer 6

I think you should re-phrase this question. I am a person with physical disabilities that is happily married with three children. Although I can no longer work I try to do what ever I can each day to be useful to my family and society. As for your question, I give people with disabilities high marks as they have to struggle to do everyday tasks that others take for granted. Also I do not appear to look disabled but once you see me try to walk it becomes apparent, however that does not change who I am as a person. So you should never judge a book by its cover, get to know the person before making such a statement.

Answer 7

I believe that it is a personal preference. You have to be a really understanding individual with a big heart. I say this because I am a mental health case manager. Believe me if I did not have a heart for the mentally ill I would not be of good use to my clients. My job would only be another job. But I really care about my clients and want the best for them and will do all I can to be sure they have what they need for daily living. So I believe your heart have to be very accepting, kind, gentle, patient and understanding to date someone with a disability. It is possible and if I met a guy with a disability and he gives me everything that I need and want from a man than I would date him....

Answer 8

a disability doesn't mean they don't have hobbies. Not giving someone a chance because they aren't the same as you isn't fair.
I have worked with people with disabilities since I was in grade school. I would spend my time playing sports during recess or just finding something that brings a smile to their face to help them feel included. My school offered set times to go into their classes to help out too. (wow I'm starting to feel old)
Not everyone was born that way either some used to have a "normal" life and don't need some one feeling sorry for them.
Get out there and get to know them.

Answer 9

People with disabilities are mistreated in this world, I think. They are either babied or abused or shunned upon or something. They are human beings just like everyone else. Just because one has a problem, doesn't mean you should treat them different or act different around them. I would most definately date a person who has a disability-- if I loved them.

Answer 10

People with disabilities are people too. They deserve to be loved. I have a friend who has a paraplegic son who is gorgeous, productive and married. He is a wonderful person, I don't think of his disability when I am around him because he is so normal and fun. Accept the person for who they are and don't think of them as disabled.
