skinnywhiteboy View Profile History	disabilities Posted : 24 Feb, 2010 04:04 PM I dated a blind girl once, things didn't work out, and I'm not the type to pine over the past. However, I'll never forget the way she could "feel" when I was upset, or losing weight due to overwork. She's always stuck in my mind because of that. Anyone got anything along those lines?

View Profile History	disabilities Posted : 5 Mar, 2010 02:10 PM Hi, I was born with cerebral palsy, so I can tell you first hand that people with disabilities don't see themselves as disabled. They see themselves as everyone else just differently abled but people that may not understand give that label as disabled Post Reply
