[nabs-l] Families misunderstanding real world

Why must we constantly say, "But it's difficult for blind people, fill
in blank..." I mean, it can be difficult for anyone living in rural
areas to meet people. As long as we have to constantly quantify things,
sighted people will too. Disabled or not, dating is dating.

Ok.  You're right.  What I'm concerned about is people not understanding

not only that I've got this, I'm on top of my game, and that sort of 
thing, but that I'm also not putting myself in any more danger than the 
average person.  My cousin says I should not meet others online at all, 
and she doesn't understand that disabled people in rural and hard to 
staff areas have to do that.  Case in point, myself included. Beth
