Relationships and finding your soul mate is difficult at the best times, for those with disabilities in some cases it’s tougher.
Over the past few years the stigma which goes hand-in-hand with online dating has softened dramatically. It’s no longer perceived as ‘sad’ if you tell someone you met your partner online. In today’s society online dating is becoming the most effective way to meet that special person. Exchanging emails allows people to introduce themselves more effetely opposed to shouting over loud music in a night club.
Bearing this in mind the love triangle between two lovers and internet dating sites are booming faster than Cupid’s heart. The market for online dating is expanding and some sites love you for your monthly payments ahead of their concern of your single status.
Online dating sites for disabled people are available and the heart-warming news is, they can pair you up with an able-bodied person as well as someone with a disability.
One site which is free is disableddatingforfree . We guess we didn’t need to explain the obvious as the clue is in the title, but the services they provide won’t cost you a penny. The site is very basic and easy to use.
Another site you may fall in love in with is Dating4Disabled – again the service is easy to use and there’s also an online chat room, blogs and a forum. Their services are also free but donations are gratefully received which can be made online.
Although DisabledDate has a completely different layout and address we believe the site is exactly the same as disableddatingforfree . Carrying an identical opening introduction gives the game away, so don’t think you are cheating on either of these sites if you use them both.
The EnabledAlready website has now closed down as the people behind it, probably a couple, are now enjoying retirement so if you are a former member it’s about time you go your separate ways and see somebody else.
Here’s a lovely sickly title for a dating site, DisabledCupid . It’s another basic website which is very straight forward to navigate around.
These are just some of the services available, our advice is to predominantly use UK sites, presuming you live in the United Kingdom of course for obvious reasons. Long distance relationships can be a nightmare.
We have solely focused on disabled dating sites purely because we are a disabled awareness website, but that doesn’t mean to say you should also try more commercial websites which are aimed for everyone. When you complete in your profile the choice is yours if you wish to state whether or not you have a disability, but sometimes it’s best to be open and honest from the word go. It will save any awkward situations should you decide to meet up.
If you are looking for love we wish you the best of luck. Remember, there’s somebody for everyone out there – you just have to find them!
