Why do special needs people always have a tough time finding a boyfriend/girlfriend?

I m special needs and I m just stressed out to when finding a girlfriend. The girls always choose guys who ending up breaking their heart over a nice guy like me. Sad Is it because I m not normal to them? Its just really tough for someone like me.

@mikeh1995,
Nice guys finish last, and fully functional beautiful people usually go for other fully functional beautiful people....this is the world that you must navigate.

@mikeh1995,
Dating sites may not be the way for you to go.

Join clubs and groups that interest you and mingle more. We "all" have something wrong with us, injuries, not tall enough, too tall, etc.

Stop looking at yourself in a negative way, smile and get out into the World.

I suggest that you read the entire sentence, no point picking two words out of it, when the entire sentence makes perfect sense .

And, I am no "Bro" so I think you also need to take time to investigate who you are replying to and have some, respect and call both correctly.

@FOUND SOUL,
The sentence makes perfect sense grammatically. That is not the issue. It is clear that you do not understand the point I was making, which is that saying that people with a disability have "something wrong with them" is insensitive and excluding. As for calling you "bro", I shall do so if I want to, bro. Respect has to be earned, and you have a considerable deficit to make up.

@mikeh1995,
Find things that you enjoy doing (sport, music, art or whatever) and do them with a passion. You'll make friends and then you may be surprised what happens. I don't know what your special needs are but maybe you could be doing some kind of activity where you meet people in a similar situation.

My son has autism and my biggest fear when he was little was that he would end up lonely. He's single at the moment but has had two girlfriends and is now very fussy about who he will go out with. I went with him recently to Special Olympics state ten pin bowling championships and most of the young (and not so young) adults in our group were partnered up. Having special needs shouldn't stop you from having a girlfriend ...you just haven't met the right girl yet.

So why did my post saying that Found Soul made a wrong choice of words when he/she called disability "something wrong" with a person, get from + 3 to -6 votes? Some cowards I think. Or one person with fake accounts.

I still stand by what I wrote. People with a disability, or who are on the spectrum, do not have "something wrong" with them. They are not broken toys or faulty products. They are people just like everyone else.

Cowardly downvoters can go f***k themselves.

Maybe because I also wrote:-

I am sure most got the point I was trying to make and that is, that Mike should stop viewing himself in a negative way, we all have issues and I'm damned if I am going to continue to defend myself to you.

@Tes yeux noirs,
That vote swing was interesting. The post was at +4 when I first saw it.

I'm very much in agreement with your comment on Found Soul's post.

Maybe I can trigger that same vote effect Rolling Eyes

I wonder if some people thought (even though I quoted "something wrong") that I was disagreeing with the general sentiment of Found Soul's post? As he or she keeps bleating, it is unexceptionable.

@Tes yeux noirs,
Possibly, as that is how I took it, perhaps I was wrong in how you meant your reply to me, then.

Therefore I apologise.

Seems both of us had good intent.
