As a guy in a similar position (on disability) I can understand where you're coming from to an extent. Online dating sites seem to be the way to go for people, the new traditional outlet, but you'll find people putting "job, car, home" as a requirement for the person they've yet to meet. And I understand why. Don't blame them really. But it's hard not to take that stuff to heart and not to start feeling as if everyone feels that way. As if maybe you don't deserve life, love or liberty because you make just enough to live and no more. In a society where you're judged more for what you do than who you are. I don't know what the answer is. I know logically there are people out there who wouldn't care after they got to know you as a person, but disclosing it all up front when there are who knows how many other potential suitors, well... then what? Mislead until later?

It's tough. I think "you'll meet somebody" is irresponsible. Tons of people live out life alone. There isn't someone for everyone. All we can do is learn to be content in our own company and hope for the best. Maybe find a way to meet people in real life using meetup or something, get to know them as friends with similar interests, put the personality out there first rather than through disclosing it all through the catalogue-like nature of dating hubs and feeling that rejection over and over again. Easier said than done for sure.
