How to deal with triggering vocal sounds from partners
I liked the funny post from Steve who identified that we can all get bogged down with too many phobia labels ! I agree and I think that labelling phobias are not really getting down to the deep stuff. I am in need of support with my relationship which is possibly ending because of how I feel often when she speaks . I…

Why do some men and I seem to have a huge age gap?
I'm a woman with learning disabilities and I'm 24 years old. I've had some experience with some men but they're not looking for anything serious. It's difficult to meet guys my age but they're not interested in a long-term relationship. I also encounter the problem that men I meet in social events seem to have a huge age…

My mom is making dating with learning disabilities even more difficult?
My mum and I have always been stricter when it comes to dating men with learning disabilities and one of them that i can't even date is mild learning disabilities. My biggest complaint is that I can only be a moderate learning disability or severe. As a consequence, I don't want to date men who have severe learning…

Partner is my Carer
Hi everyone, firstly thanks for even starting to read this. I am hoping to just pour everything out and see if anyone else can help me make sense of this. I have recently loved to Lancashire to live with my partner. He has taken on the role of my carer and I am resentful of it. I wish I could do things for myself, some…

What are the results of online dating and real-life dating?
I don't get attracted to many men in real life, it's going to be more difficult for me to find my type of guy in real life. There are some previous ex-boyfriends I met on Facebook or on Badoo. The experience I've had with real dating is similar to the experience I've had with online dating. Whenever I attend events for…

How do I end my relationship?
Hey everyone, this is a long one so settle down, get comfortable and have a read.. if you want. I have been off and on with my partner for the last 5 years, everyone around me asks why I have let it carry on for this long, I guess people ask him the same thing. It is toxic on both sides, I can not put all the blame on him…

Dating with chronic pain or invisible disabilities...
Dating with chronic pain or other disabilities is tough, especially if there’s nothing visible about your condition. Finding someone using dating dating apps like Hinge or Tinder is hard to begin with, but dating with invisible disabilities adds a whole other level of difficulty. Here are a couple of things I've figured…

Why did the first guy mess me around with the first date/meetup and the next guy did not?
he was slightly later than planned on the first date, then it was cut short afterward. When I went on his Facebook, I saw he was in relationships with more than one woman. I gave up on him and went onto a guy with whom I had a first date / meetup. There is no mention of the first guy who was texting multiple women as being…

How does dating change as we age, or does it stay the same?
I'm been wondering if dating changes as we age or stays the same. i already been through some rough patches to get into a relationship and I still haven't been in a relationship since I'm 24 years old. I had previous relationships in college, but I also found it harder in my 20's+, so I took a break from online dating. My…

One of the guys is suspected to be a player, but now I'm on to the next guy, how does that work?
I met up with a guy who stopped texting after I felt like he wasn't communicating well with me. Then, after giving up and stopping trying, I saw a post where he had been tagged and said he was in a relationship with a woman. I moved on to a new guy who I also met on an online dating site called freedating. co. uk. He was a…

I met a new guy online who is looking for a serious relationship. What are your thoughts?
My first date wasn't worth it and was a player, so I moved on to my next date with a guy I met on a dating site called freedating co. uk. I know he had been seeing a girl before, but the girl broke it off because they were going too slow. I did ask a question and asked to explain what i meant by taking it slow. i meant is…

My last “date” was 25 years ago, as in meeting someone new and building a relationship. We were together for 22 years and in that time I was made disabled…..Traumatic…

My mom has issues with using mainstream dating, but she doesn't have issues with me using disabled
My mum seems to have an issue with me using mainstream dating apps or sites. I do not like the idea of attempting to use disabled online dating, however. Although I hate it very much, I still try to get back into disability dating. Although I said there were a lot of creeps and not-very-nice guys out there, I disagree with…

What can I do to prevent meeting any immature men from my previous online dating experience?
As a woman with learning disabilities, I want to avoid meeting up with or finding an immature man, although all men can be inherently immature at different levels, regardless of how old they are. My past experience was meeting a 33-year-old man who was immature and also a cheater since I found more than one account on…
