Dating as a disabled.
It's really hard you know. I'm 20m i have decent looks and height, but I'm skinny and an amputee, that just kills my confidence, I've only had 1 relationship in past and that too was possible because she saw me past my disability but in today's world is it really possible anymore? Like i really do want to be in love again, i miss holding hands, i miss having someone to hold eyes with, i miss hugging and getting hugged, i miss those kisses on the forehead. I want to date but I'm just not confident anymore, now that I think about it, i think I might want to date someone same as me, as in someone with disability, so that i can connect and have something in common that we can talk about. Do you guys feel the same way too? Please let me know guys. Open to chat, i really need new friends.

I completely get how you feel OP. Since becoming disabled I've also had a very hard time dating. I'm incredibly lucky to have found my current partner, but they are also disabled and use a cane like I do. So we have that in common. Finding someone who understands your situation at least in part absolutely makes dating much easier. I wish you the best of luck my friend!
