How to Date a Physically Disabled Girl

If you are an open-minded person, you might consider dating a girl with physical disabilities. Excluding a person on the basis of her disabilities limits your opportunity to find the girl for you and reduces your chances of meeting your most compatible mate.

Instructions

1. Focus on the person and not the disability. Disabilities are important but by no means define a person. Get to know the girl for the person she is. Don't dwell on any physical ability she lacks.

2. Ask her out on a date. Let her know you are interested in getting to know her better. Take her out on a date like you would any other girl.

3. Check that the date's destinations are accessible. Make sure the place that you take her is accessible to a wheelchair, crutches or whatever piece of adaptive equipment she uses. Call in advance or go and see the place for yourself. Public places must be accessible by law. If they are not appropriately accessible, ask to speak to the manager and refer them to the Americans with Disabilities Act.

4. Arrange for transportation. Find out what type of transportation the girl typically uses. She may drive an adapted vehicle or may be required to ride in an adapted vehicle due to a wheelchair. Ask her in advance how she prefers to travel and make the appropriate arrangements.

5. Go out on your date and have fun. She really is just like any other girl. Treat her that way.
