Ok. So I’m 17F and new to dating, and this issue has come up a good bit. Once I’m 18 it’ll probably come up more if I ever make dating app accounts. When I meet someone in person then it’s not an issue as it’s quite obvious. The issue is when I meet someone online through a friend etc. I know I shouldn’t wait too long to mention it, but what’s the right amount? If I lead with it, I end up only getting people who have disability fetishes which I don’t feel comfortable dating. If I wait too long the people feel lied to. I’m thinking that maybe I could start talking to a guy, and then once we start talking about meeting in person (in the future, can’t meet anyone now) I should mention it? Not 100% sure. At that point I know some people might see it as a dealbreaker and that’s fine- but I also would rather people know me at least a little bit before making that decision. I just also don’t want them to feel lied to.
It also might be worth noting that I’m pretty much completely independent, I don’t need a caregiver or anything so that’s not a concern when it comes to relationships.
