Topic: Is finding a date based on looks or personality? | |
---|---|
Hey guys,
I just wondered since it seems that I'm the only blind person on here, which is ok. But I was wondering when you look for a partner online like this, are you looking for what they look like, or are you trying to get to know them? Of course since I can't see very well I go by personality since I would like to date someone who is a great person, not just by looks. If they're good looking, that's great, but looks aren't everything. I'd rather date someone who's not very good looking, but who is a nice and wonderful person. So I was just wondering what you guys think of this or what your views are? |

Most people look at the cover of the book before reading cover to cover and finding out they either love or hate the author.

I was never blind before... |

Well, my computer reads to me what's on the screen. I can type just fine, very fast in fact lol. You can adjust the rate of the speech, so people who are sighted laugh when they hear it because it sounds like jibberish, lol. I guess they're making lots of audio electronics for us blindies now, like talking clocks and timers to for cooking and scales in the bathroom. So I've got lots of things in my apartment that talks lol. I do have to listen to what someone might sound like and get to know them, but it's hard to do that when you have a computer reading a profile, but I don't mind. I've dated from the net before, so that's nothing new I guess. But I do read braille. I had a little bit of vision when I was younger, but not enough to read print, but I could see it if it was really big. So I hope that answers your question.
