| Dating an amputee
Posted: 8/21/2009 7:09:17 PM | I've done it, and usually it was OK. But before you do this, know your limits as it is not fair to get someone involved and then decide you can't take it. So yes, you can date people who have physical or mental disabilities and both of you can have a great time.
Particularly in the the case of the chronically mentally ill you will have incredibly enlightening experiences. Going on a dinner date with someone who is obviously mentally ill is an exercise comparable to climbing a 14,000 foot peak. | |

Posted: 9/1/2009 12:35:40 AM | In case I haven't already said this, and sorry, not reading through this whole thread for this 10 second post. I've dated women without brains before. That count?
I'm real big on legs, so I would miss one or two, but yeh, if I fell for the gurl, why wouldn't I? The question is, am I shallow enough to not fall for someone who has no legs? Hard to answer since I haven't met anyone I liked, then they had a leg or two taken away and seen my love fall flat. I would like to think I would rush into a burning building to save a kitten. I haven't tested myself on that. Hadn't had the opportunity. You must trust our conjecture and ignore the fact that many will be biased here towards making themselves look good...
I will say, that I actually would prefer a blind woman. | |

Posted: 11/1/2009 12:31:32 PM | | Yes I would date an amputee if they didn't have a chip on their shoulder. True beauty comes from with in and can be seen and felt by some who is open minded and wants to love. | |

Posted: 11/1/2009 2:54:17 PM | | I would love to date an amputee. My two best and most fulfilling relationships of all time were with women who were amputees. One of them had other physical differences or disabilities too. There's no reason why a relationship with someone who is different should not have the same potential to be rich and wonderful as any other relationship. | |

Posted: 11/1/2009 7:25:37 PM | If me and someone with physical disability were to emotionally fall in love I would data
them. I think that personality out weighs any disability. Some of the nicest that I know have a physical disability. | |

Posted: 11/3/2009 7:53:57 AM | Dated and ultimately married a bilateral amputee (both legs below the knee).
She had an absolutely wonderful attitude and did everything she could to be 'normal'. In fact, she made it as an alternate in the 2000 Paralympics.
Yes, there were challenges but she never allowed her disability to become a means for generating pity.
In fact, she had a great sense of humor about the whole thing. I remember in the playful, bantering about sex stage of our relationship we joked about hopping in the back seat of my car. I reminded her how little room there was back there. Her response was 'we don't need much room; remember, my legs come off'. | |
