Hi my name is Emily and I'm a suffer of cp. What I can't understand is this ... why can't we normally with cp people look at me and think I'm wierd because cp. They can't be bothered to come and talk to me about it then I feel lonely and helpless. Datings difficult for.oeopke with cp because of the age thing but really it matter how old tour friend/partner is because in the end its love and trust that always wins.
Its 20 times harder for me because I'm lonely see and I need a friend to help me. Please can you help me?

Hi @pooleestar26
Welcome to the community, thanks for posting, and I'm sorry to hear you have found dating to be a real challenge.
It can be deflating when you keep coming across people who aren't accommodating of your condition, but I think if anybody is like that in the first place then you're better off without those people anyway. As you say love and trust always wins and any worthy partner will provide those and won't care that you have CP.
Have you tried looking on the Outsiders Dating and Social Club? Or any of the other dating sites or apps?0 -

Lord it was wierd I met this lad and his name was ethan we got along g so well he understood everything that I've been going through with my Cp. He even understood about about my favourite actor Richard Armitage whose been a fantastic support. By the end of it we were together for a year. Xxx Emily0
