Love life

LegacyUser

I'm a twenty five year old guy who's got a good job it pays okay.I'm generally quite content and stable emotionally.My problem is my personal life, family's grand and that have a few friends but I don't have a love life, its really annoying me.

I also happen to be deaf, but generally speaking my hearing is okay but sometimes communication can be diffiicult.I'm also different in that I didn't go to a deaf school, don't know sign language and don't socialise with deaf people.I also have no interest, in doing so after positive experiences I decided the deaf life wasn't for me, too boring restrictive etc.

My question is do girls actually prefer to date men who haven't got any disabilities, do I have a fighting chance with the girls???

Of course you do!!!

It wouldn't be a problem for me anyway (I'm 26). Can't see it being a problem for most mature girls.

Anyone who would have a problem with it, really doesn't deserve your time anyway.

Best of luck

Yes I agree with BoozyBabe 100%! I definitely wouldn't have a problem with it. I don't see how your disability would have a major effect on a relationship anyway. Girls don't prefer to date men who haven't got any disabilities..it doesn't matter, disabilites or not. Once you like/love someone well that's it! Don't worry, the right girl will come along in time.

No I think you will be ok. The right one will come along. TBH the ones who do have difficulty arent worth bothering with anyway.
I work with a guy who is deaf and his eyesight is very poor and he is happily married
Also I work in the civil service and they have day release courses in languages one of them is signing. They can hear but have decided to learn signing so that if a visitor with a hearing difficulty arrives in the laboratory they can, if necessary be fully include in all lectures and converssations
its only an example, but perhaps there are weekly courses you couldd go n which aren't so restrictive for you.
Perhaps someone could post a resource?

Any girl who has a difficulty with it isn't worth a second glance.

I know a guy who's deaf in one ear, and not great hearing in the other. He's engaged, has his own house with his fiance, with second child on the way.

I wouldn't let it get me down, just try and get out a bit more with your mates, and I'm sure it will happen for you.

Nah, deafness wouldn't be an issue i think ........
A girl i know constantly calls me deaf ... although mines more of a listening issue

god i wouldnt care less if a guy was deaf or blind or in a wheelchair. if he's nice, whats the problem? maybe if you couldnt communicate properly it would be a problem but you seem quite capable. dont worry bout it

Heyes

If they do have a problem with it their not worth your time and attention. I went out with a deaf girl once, was good. Best of all she knew when to shut up

Just kidding.

Im sure you will find someone soon, just keep looking and broaden your horizons.

There's a lot more to a relationship. People are complex. Play to your strengths, and don't dwell on this one limitation.

Thanks for the advice guys and girls, I'm now reassured about my disability.Its true that I should play to my strengths, its all you can do.

Cheers!
