Well yeah, mee too! What off-topic thread have you seen on this 
list where people haven't said anything about it being off-topic? 
There were a lot of people who said even the off-topic thread 
back in September was off-topic, but some people just chose to 
continue it.

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight.  The 
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that 
exists.  If a blind person has the proper training and 
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical 
nuisance."
-- Kenneth Jernigan (President, National Federation of the Blind, 
1968-1986

in Maryland say "I can," by empowering them through providing 
assistive technology and scholarships to camps and conventions 
which help them be equal with their sighted peers.  For more

Oh wow.  With all the off-topic threads that didn't relate to
blindness, we're jumping on the off-topic bandwagon on this one? 
I'm
just happy the man asked for advice before he made such a 
momentus
decision!

 meant strictly for blindness-related discussion, as this one is.
 If there's a general chat list out there or a dating list or
 something like that, you could try that, but I wouldn't post 
this
 to a list at all; maybe you could try posting it to your 
Facebook
 page or something like that.

 Hi Koby,

 Wow! Sorry I can't help you here; I'll just say this.  I don't
 think this question is really blindness-related, as the fact 
that
 your parents don't want you to see your girlfriend has nothing 
to
 do with your blindness.  So, I don't think this is a good list
 for it.  Just my opinion!

 Hello All,
 I'm totally blind and am 19 years old I currently have a
 girlfriend

 I'll be
 graduating highschool on December 20,2011.  I'm thinking about
 moving in
 with her on that day after I get out of school.  However, I'm 
not
 sure
 how I should explain this to my parents sense they don't want us
 seeing
 one another.  Any ideas?
 Each one of you right back soon,
 Koby.
