Have you been in love with a disabled person?

 Living with cerebral palsy I always wondered why people never fell in love with me when everyone said I look soooooooooo pretty. Does it happen only in movies? 

Only married men seemed to have some interest in me so I couldn't take it any further obviously 🤣

So today I want ask my readers - have you ever been in love with a disabled person? 



I've had crushes, but it never seemed to go beyond that. Mom said I never responded properly to those who may have tried to make a romantic move. Maybe... But I could never be sure. So I thought it possibly happens only in movies. 

I've been people's inspiration a lot of times.. and honestly, I'm bored of that. Like Aishwarya Rai says "Mein kisi ki khwahish banna chahti hoon"

 Since I spoke about inclusion, getting jobs, making infrastructure wheelchair friendly all these years, I thought I'll ask you if you have ever been in love with, dated or married someone with any disability. If yes, I'd love to know your story... And probably hope to have a story of my own some day. If not, you're not alone. 😜

You're probably thinking "how single is she that she has written an entire blogpost about being single"🤣🤣🤣

Well I had to write something on International Day for Persons with Disabilities and I'm done with inspiring people to do good 🙏  So tell me your love story!

    I met someone yesterday with cerebral palsy. We became friends very quick (i think). She has a boyfriend though, cooper. He's cute, cant complain. She isn't as cute as you are but beautiful inside. Felt the warmth while taking to her.

    If you have come to this page, please try and spend some more time reading this https://themighty.com/topic/cerebral-palsy/dating-person-cerebral-palsy
    It's not written by me but might help you if and when u become interested in someone like me. Recently someone said "I wish I had a disability so i could love you." I want to clarify that you don't need to be disabled. All you need is the capacity to love unconditionally. Rest is mentioned in the link above. Thanks 😊

    Hi Dev, thanks for stopping by. I guess it's not easy to find genuine love. I've not experienced that luck yet. I hope you are with the love of your life.

A Special Post On A Special Day

Image
  Today (December 3) is International Day of Persons With Disabilities. Every year, I make it a point to post something in my blog to create awareness. But every year I encounter a question – what new things can I tell the world about my disability? A lack of clarity makes me fear that I may be giving you the same information year after year. We need wheelchair friendly infrastructure in cities, inclusive educational institutions are required and more job opportunities for the disabled are a must. We know this.   All this is about what can be done for me. For a change, I thought I must write about what I can do for myself. Even after the government, doctors, teachers, family, friends and God have done their part, complete benefit is possible only when I start taking care of myself. Saying Yes To Professional Help I used the term professional help because it means different things for people with different kind of disabilities. For some it could be speech therapy and for ...

To Everyone I Know

Image
I never realized until now that I'm a little in love with everyone I know. A post I shared on Facebook sometime ago reminded me of this love. As I read the post, I realized that there's something we love about everyone we know. With too many things to do, we often forget it, but that doesn't mean that the love doesn't exist. The popular idea of love that we have created, prevents us from seeing and appreciating the various other ways in which it exits. It could be in the most insignificant things that people do or say casually. It could be in just a smile or holding the door open. I see love in so many things people do for me, but sharing food is my favorite way of sharing love. Chocolate says I love you, like nothing else :) Every person that I have ever met has taught me to love a little more. Sometimes, I take a little while to understand, but thankfully I do. So, I'd like to pause for a moment and acknowledge the unconditional love from everyone.... ...

The black spot that stays

Image
 Remember 'the black spot on the white paper' experiment? It is not leaving my mind today. I'm not sure why. I thought hard, but I couldn't decide whether it was because someone refused to see me as a contributor to society and was stuck with the idea of my limitation or because my ability was under valued many times. The spot never really bothered me as a child. Actually, I don't remember when it started bothering me. Maybe ten years ago, when I thought I can outperform the others and make people see me as the person that am, not as the girl on the wheelchair...  I thought I could change things. It seemed to work initially. I thought I'd succeeded. I thought I'd washed of the spot, but it reappeared. This time, even an excellent performance couldn't wash it away. One of my flaws has been that I'm quick to generalize. Usually, my family helps me see the brighter side. This time too, I was hoping my generalization was wrong. Sadly, it wasn't.  I c...
