He's mentally handicapped, but it's not severe. He thinks I'm supposed to find him one. What do I tell him? He's 25 I figured out long ago that he probably wouldn't have one, but I don't know what to tell him.

He has a job and is saving for a house.

find a way to engage him in activities where he could meet people, or google a camp or group that are for mentally handicapped people and stuff. that way he will learn more about himself and could meet some girls on his own.

It's more of a need than a want ! The good part is that he's working so it's not all that bad but the bad part is that the challenge MAY extend to the children they have.The doctors would be better advisors,my personal piece would be,as hard as it may seem to be,keep him single and go for treatment / activities that would divert his mind away from girlfriend and marriage.I interact with many Elderly as I'm the Managing Trustee of Thegoodshepherdhome.org (a home for the old) and some had children like this and it grew worse.Right now you two are the effected but later, it is you two plus the wife plus the children plus the in laws plus more difficulties.

Explain to him gently that you cannot find someone for him, as you dont know who he will love. When the time is right, he will find the right girl
