Would you be with someone who is physically disabled?

I am wondering if you liked someone, you meet them by chance or have liked them for some time and they walk with a limp are noticably in pain. Would that stop you from starting a relationship with them? So I've had rheumatoid arthritis since I was 2 years old, I walk with a bit of a limp and on my bad days I can barely walk. I'm curious if you see someone, you find them attractive and they have a great personality but has a limp, would you still ask them out? I'm not gonna lie my chronic pain really messes with my head at times and I honestly feel that most men wouldn't want to be with me because of my chronic pain. I see myself as damaged good in all reality. So I just want to poke into the minds of others to see if it would impact how you feel about someone. Would you date someone who is physically disabled?

Actually it's the other way for me as I am the one walking with a limp due to a mild polio. But most of my dating has been through online meeting where I get to know the person well enough.. and [b]I have never been rejected [/b] and have good romance and friendship.

So with my experience outlook matters only for ONS .. but not for relationship. As a sapiosexual I don't reject but embrace to see how life can be lived.

But many go not by their heart, but contemplate how it would appear to others if I appear with this person or what my colleagues friends relatives think.. and that makes them avoid the relationship.
