I don't see a disability, I see a person.

i have a disability.it holds be back some.if someone wants to always be doing something then it would be a problem.also,i understand someone not wanting to be a caretaker but some don't want to be with someone who is "different" additionally,not all handicapped have made historical achievements.[just like not all non-handicapped persons.]i think there is still some work to be done in accepting others.

very true, I would hope that no matter what however anyone would want to see who you are on the inside and not think will they need me to care for them.

We all are a little bit different, some people do not care about the things that you might think they would. If you are comfortable with yourself then it would not be a problem. Confidence can go a long ways. But like other people said before, there is someone out there for everyone...but you might just have to wait a little while so in the mean time go out and have fun living your own life and good luck.

Does it matter? Yes. Should it matter? No. I believe there are people out there, that will love you no matter what the cause is, however I've had severe issues finding that person.. myself. I would love to sit here and be positive about this issue, but it's one thing I have problems with. I'm always upfront with people about the fact I have a physical disability and that I have days where I can't get out, or that I have to cancel plans. I've been in relationships that start out fine, and they can handle the various issues, trips to the dr and hospitals, days we have to stay home, and side-effects of medications, but the bad thing is from MY experience is that, they eventually get tired of it. I get around a lot of days okay, however I'm never aware of the days that are going to bad. I think that's half of the people's problems I've been with. I wish you all the luck in the world finding someone who will treat you like the beautiful person I'm sure you are.

Do you think someone being disabled should matter in a relationship? "should" is a pretty big word and disabled is also a pretty general term deaf might matter if there is a need to learn sign language to discuss with them sight might matter if a large part of the other persons life involves visual mediums,,etc,,, I think it should matter what each person needs and wants and whether those needs and wants are compatibile
