Dating sites learning difficulties

Dating ain’t easy! Endless awkward exchanges via Tinder and Happn, maybe leading to an even more awkward first date that you either spend watching the clock or trying to read into the other person’s every move for some sign that they possibly like you. But what’s it like to date if you’re disabled and have needs unlike those many people are familiar with?

How do you broach the subject? Especially if your disability isn’t immediately visible.

We explore love and relationships with stories from people with love and marriage to dating and intimacy, all with disability in the mix.
