Note to reader: The following post is ONLY about me venting/talking about my own personal thoughts/feelings about this subject. The way in which I chose to handle explaining my CP(Cerebral Palsy) to people/guys I am trying to date might be different from how others choose to explain it. I speak for no one with a disability other than myself.

Dear reader I have been on a “dating” site for about a week and a half now(the site shall remain nameless for personal reasons), I am very up front and honest with people about my disability in my profile(which anyone who has read my blog for any amount of time can pretty much already tell because of how up front and honest I have been about my disability on here).

I say up front that I can’t walk at all and I need a lot of physical help so if a guy can’t lift me or doesn’t want to I am not the right girl for him.

I have had a lot of people ask me if I feel bad about having a “normal” guy help me so much, my answer to the question is no I don’t because I know that it’s hard work however no guys I have ever dated have left me because of my chair it’s always been for other reasons.

I know that I bring a lot of love, honesty, and loyalty to the table whenever I date a guy and I know that that is worth something.

I hate how so many guys say that they have read my profile and they are ok with my chair and the very next sentence pretty much proves that the aren’t as an example of what I mean:

A guy said he was ok with my wheelchair then he asks me why I don’t go into the woods a lot. I said because it’s not normally wheelchair accessible. He wanted me to go camping and on nature hikes with him and yes dear reader I know that I could probably find ways around it but I’m not really a let’s hang out in the woods type of girl.

Once he thought it through he realized that it was too much for him personally to deal with.

Some people don’t seem to really understand why I can’t physically do certain things until I have to explain it to them which I understand however I personally think that some stuff should be kind of obvious once they know that I can’t walk. It annoying to have to deal with their let down over the fact that they can’t deal with my chair when they said from the start that they could.

I know that I will find the right guy for me eventually the drama and the liars are annoying.

Thanks again dear reader for staying with me on this journey and listening to me vent I love you guys so very much ♡.
