Unfortunately, some folks here the term "disabled" and they get it confused for "unabled" or "I don't want to work, I just want to be supported". It really can tend to scare people off.

I generally wait until I've spent some quality time with someone and I feel that there is a mutual spark before I say anything, that way the person can get to know you for you, and not your disability and they would hopefully feel a bit more invested in the relationship. Sometimes you just have to fly solo for a while though, but that can be fun too. Put on some nice music, draw yourself a warm bubble bath, poor yourself a glass of wine, light some candles and soak your troubles away.

If it's the physical relationship that you are craving, you can always compensate with the occasional game of "Solitaire", if you know what I mean. Just make sure you have plenty of batteries!! LOL!!!
