Disabilities in Relationships
I'm here asking for everybody's honest opinion on this:
When you are considering entering a relationship with someone, have you chosen or would you choose not to enter a relationship with someone who had a disability?
I was talking with a few guys I know last week, and they commented that they would deliberately choose not to have a relationship with someone who had a severe disability, such as deafness, blindness, or some other physical impairment. I was shocked to hear this, as this was from a group of guys who I had, up to this point, deemed to be extremely intelligent, good hearted, unbiased guys. Their reasoning for their choice was the relationship would require more work, and they didn't want the other person to become dependent on them.
I'm really curious the choice other people would make in this decision - please share!
