Askmen Dating A Girl In A Wheelchair Site:www.reddit.com
Being a car guy myself who loves to drive even 24 hrs a day, I should say we are made for each other. I've dated a few girls like that and it didn't bother me. They provided other value to my life that made up for their lack of driving ability. Jake is being manipulative. He knows his depression and him being in a wheelchair will get sympathy from you two. Regardless, you get to set your boundaries. Tell him you and Sarah are attending as a couple and you'll see him there. If he goes to the counselor, so what, you haven't done anything wrong. Don't let him manipulate you out of your date.
I've been in a wheelchair for 18 years. I've never been in a relationship or on a date.
Dating A Paraplegic
I know I'm not ugly. I'm smart, funny, and have a generally positive attitude about life. So, the fact that I've have never been asked out by a guy makes me think it must be the chair.
Maybe guys find it intimidating, or they're scared of the unknown. I'm not sure what it could be. I know a number of guys in chairs who have wives/girlfriends, but think it's easier for men in wheelchairs because women tend to be more compassionate and enjoy the role of care taker.
AskMen, what do you think? Would you be willing to date someone in a wheelchair?
Also, do you have any advice on how I could help make potential 'love interests' more comfortable with the situation and to see passed the chair to the fact that I'm just a regular person?

I used the search bar and couldn't find anything about it, so hopefully it's not a repeat.
I'm 18, and have a neuromuscular disorder that's classified as moderate to severe. At this point I can still walk, horseback ride, kayak, canoe, and swim, but I will slowly lose my ability to do such things as I age (yaaaayyyy). I've never really been self conscious about it until recently. I told my ex and he became afraid I would 'break' and couldn't touch me any more (awesome).
So, would it honestly weird you out/turn you off to know that a perfectly normal looking girl is going to slowly lose her ability to walk?
