Would you date a handicapped? (if it's not too much to ask elaborate, if you don't feel at ease doing so, at least vote anonymously, thx)

• That is 100% true, but I wonder if ppl would be willing to consider to date them without truly knowing if they will ever grow into that mutual love and understanding.

• Ok I'm engaged so this point is really moot but let's say I was to suddenly become single and available again. While I honestly would not go out of my way to date someone with a handicap if I met someone who was handicapped and we develepoed a solid friendship and assuming she had the important qualities I seek after that being kindness compassion looks at the whole package and not just what is outside I can honestly say I wouldn't allow her handicap to stop me from wanting to become romantically involved with her.

• What about blind date, if someone were to set you up, knowing that the person is either paralyzed waist down, or has uncontrollable movements, or is slow to understand "average" social meanings, would you still go with the same enthusiasm?
  (If you hate blind dates, pretend it's not, someone just wants you two to go on a date and introduces you, and then you go)

• Sweetie I am terribly sorry it took me so long to get back to you. If it was a blind date I would make the best of the situation and try not to focus on her handicap but rather having a good time. If I knew ahead of time the person was disabled in all honesty I probably wouldn't be excited about the date but I would go and again make the best of it and if I had a really nice time with her I would definitely want to see her again and see if maybe this could go somewhere.

• I don't mind at all, I don't expect ppl to drop everything and reply hehe... I really appreciate your reply at anytime really
  
  Yeah I was thinking about the same, that if I had to start dating a handicap I wouldn't be as eager, but I wouldn't pass the opportunity, but I was still feeling somewhat guilty for not feeling eager for it... so I was wondering what others thought.
  
  It's very different if you already love the person, because then it feels like you only want to stand by their side even more, to help them in every way... yet I was curious what about if you don't know the person. I really appreciate your answer!!! Thank you!!!
