I notice when a girl or anyone for that matter has horrible acne or the scars that tend to follow a childhood full of terrible acne. I feel for them deeply. I can't imagine the pain it inflicts on a person. Both physical and emotional. I did date a girl for a while who had some bad acne scars on her cheeks. It didn't bother me any. Search within r/AskMen. User account menu. Found the internet! Men of reddit who’ve dated or are currently dating a disabled. As someone who’s disabled, but not in a wheelchair, I’ve found a lot of the things people are scared of when dating me just aren’t true. My partner last year Skyped me in a panic saying he wasn’t sure he could be my main source of support during my suffering and wasn’t sure if we should continue. I know her beauty is not my lack but for some reason, I couldn't shake the insecurities away. I felt inadequate because I was physically disabled and she didn't appear to be. She wasn't in a wheelchair while I was. I heard about this ex before because she's the one his younger siblings (all young children) keep talking about.

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?

Pure hypothetical here, but it's been on my mind tonight. I have a friend who is a few years younger than me, and she's a really sweet girl who I've known for years, but she's been bummed out lately about the prospect of graduating college soon without ever having gone on a date. She has CP (she's mobile and goes to physical therapy, but uses a walker most of the time) and feels like men are incapable of looking past her disability to actually get to know her. Part of me wants to say that's not true, but, I mean, I'm an able-bodied woman who hasn't had her experiences, so I have no way of knowing. Would you guys be open to ever going on a date with a somewhat physically disabled girl? If not, is there a specific reason why, or is it just one of those things?

(I'm not going to show her this thread or anything, so please, be honest. I'm just interested to see what the spread of answers from this community would be, especially as opposed to other subreddits where I could ask.)
