I am in a group on FB for dating for disabled people. One of the members posted a question the question "Why are most disabled people single?" A lot of the members all seem to agree that they feel that people look at us as damaged goods. I definitely feel this way about dating and it makes me feel I am not alone with the struggles of the dating game. People who aren't disabled don't feel comfortable around people with a disability when it comes to dating. People do see the disability first instead of the person, I know people actually got to know sees the person but if a stranger who I was interested in and I wanted to talk but they rejected me they see the disability. Let me know really if you would date someone with a disability and I don't want to hear the the cliche response "I would get to know the person and look past disability" because for the majority of people I know and I feel that's not true. When is a time where you saw a person with a disability and thought that person is really attractive and I would be interested in them and actually looked past the disability?
