burning 4 revenge Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 There was a thread about on-line dating sites yesterday. I wanted to know if anyone knows any quality sites that cater to disabled people. I've joined one and it isn't very extensive. The only reply I've gotten was from a woman with no arms who lives six hours away. Now, I could handle no arms or six hours away, but no arms and six hours away? Come on!

Author burning 4 revenge Posted August 4, 2006 Author Posted August 4, 2006 It sounds like it could be a far reach for you to hold up with such a relationship??yes, well i guess the burden of "holding up" such a relationship would be on me
Tony T Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Why don't you Google "dating services for disabled." I did and got lots of sites.
a4a Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 They just did a story about one in China for impotent people. I often wondered why they don't have dating site for people with severe emotional issues..... hummmmmmmm........................

HA!! :lmao: I often wondered why they don't have dating site for people with severe emotional issues..... hummmmmmmm........................ I was under the assumption that well adjusted, rational people weren't welcome on internet dating sites.

a4a Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 a4a, China is farther than Tallahassee Yeah but if you dug a really deep hole you should be there in no time I bet there are many here in the US, there has to be dating sites for all different things...... I often wondered how little people hooked up with other little people as well. And don't be smart and tell me through the Lollipop Guild !
Author burning 4 revenge Posted August 4, 2006 Author Posted August 4, 2006 I don't see why women would go to a site specifically designed for impotent men. If there is such a site I think I would be at a great advantage, though, considering most of the other guys would be thirty years older and using walkers.

Some women have conditions (medical) that prevents them from having intercourse... intercourse can indeed be painful for some that suffer from a variety of conditions.
Author burning 4 revenge Posted August 4, 2006 Author Posted August 4, 2006 hmmm well, i want to have intercourse, it's just that i need medication and i probably will eventually need an implant and that's a big turn-off for women in my age group (early 30's) that's why i've been researching disabled adds, so i could get all that uncomfortable stuff out of the way up front and prevent a disaster like my last relationship

Author burning 4 revenge Posted August 4, 2006 Author Posted August 4, 2006 I got an idea....... try dating nurses.... they should not have a problem with it at all. i've thought about that. people with medical backgrounds who could understand, or people with other disabilites who would be more prone to understand. gosh, lifes not easy
Outcast Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 I think your best bet would be to do a search on 'healthy coping strategies'.
a4a Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 I think your best bet would be to do a search on 'healthy coping strategies'. Ehhh..... I don't think he is ready to dig the bullet out quite yet, probably just wants to stop the bleeding and get some pain meds........ but hopefully he will dig out that lead ball before he gets total lead poisoning
Author burning 4 revenge Posted August 4, 2006 Author Posted August 4, 2006 I think your best bet would be to do a search on 'healthy coping strategies'. yeah, but i can't sleep with healthy coping strategies. being alone is okay for some people, but it's not for me and i know there are many lonley women out there who could relate
Outcast Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 You really don't want to find someone just to have someone. That never works out well.
Author burning 4 revenge Posted August 4, 2006 Author Posted August 4, 2006 You really don't want to find someone just to have someone. That never works out well.i agree. but what's the alternative. becoming a monk?
Author burning 4 revenge Posted August 4, 2006 Author Posted August 4, 2006 Outcast, I'm curious what you mean by healthy coping strategies. Do you mean coping with being alone permanently?
Craig Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 well, i want to have intercourse, it's just that i need medication and i probably will eventually need an implant and that's a big turn-off for women in my age group (early 30's) that's why i've been researching disabled adds, so i could get all that uncomfortable stuff out of the way up front and prevent a disaster like my last relationshipB4R, how about this approach instead... well, i want to have intercourse, it's just that i need medication and i probably will eventually need an implant and that's a big turn-off for some women in my age group (early 30's) so now i'm going to get all that uncomfortable stuff out of the way up front and prevent a disaster like my last relationship
Outcast Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 1. You won't be alone permanently. One healthy coping strategy is to refuse to believe fallacies like that. 2. An extremely healthy coping strategy is to get right in your own head such that you learn to enjoy your own company and you learn to enjoy life without needing somebody attached to your arm. There's a wonderful world out there with plenty of things to enjoy and you are, if you allow yourself to be, perfectly capable of enjoying them to the fullest. I know yours is a hard lot, but you're not dying, you're not living in a city where you could be bombed into shrards any minute, and you've got a lot going for you. Don't waste your precious life wishing it weren't so. Make the most of it. Look at the Christoper Reeves in life - an awful lot of people deal with hardship and resolve to find enjoyment in life anyway. You need help to be able to quit feeling so negative about your life and your prospects. You are more than the tube of flesh on the front of you, but if all you make of yourself is that, yes, you will remain lonely forever. The only thing that will keep you 'lonely for the rest of your life' is the conviction you will be. Change that and you'll see your life change. And if you can't manage it on your own, get help.
Guest Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 i dated a guy that had a small penis and wished he had an implant!!!!!
Pink Amulet Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 The only reply I've gotten was from a woman with no arms who lives six hours away. I want to know how she replied to you.....
johan Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 I want to know how she replied to you..... I assume she still has her nose.
