No Maya, You should never give up, as long as You have marriage in Your heart’s plan, even if, it goes against reason. The heart is unrelenting and defeats reason, speaking for myself.
If high standards present ablock, then, the question arises: which is more vital to You, and perhaps there may be room for some adjustments
as is known, I am hard of hearing… I didn’t met my future wife until I was
32 and didn’t get married until 36… today, July 5th… is our 21 year wedding anniversary…
so I wouldn’t panic quite yet…perhaps in another 20 or 30 years you might want to
give up… however not yet…
Maya, do You belong to Braille Inst., and do they have social services? If they do, so You partake of them? You may consider me short sighted forn such suggestion, but, I do not know Your situation, and do not know hardly anything at all. IT appears that it is difficult here to be honest, and as such the desire to be more confidential is to a certain extent difficult to none.
None of us want to be burt, and honesty and disclosure sometimes backfires
So please feel free to PM me anytime, and perhaps it would be possible to be more open there
If you are ready to get serious and start a family, join a dating service where they screen the men via your likes and dislikes. If the service is costly, ask your family if they’d help.
Or you could mingle more with males on some forums that draw on your interests. It seems that on philosophy forums, men circle females like sharks hunting their next kill. Of course most of the men are delusional in their beliefs that females are generally inferior to their superior maleness, but I have no doubt that you could set them straight on that account in the intellect department.
I met my male partner on the ILP website and we are getting ready to celebrate our one year anniversary of co-habitation.
Yes it is, but are You aware of The Royal Institute of Blind People, or, Oxfordshire Assoc. for the Blind, Deafbkind UK, Dorset Blind Assoc., ?
If You do not have a seeing eye dog, Guide Dogs UK charity for the blind and Partially sighted may be of help.
Again, please do not take these suggestions as foreward in any way, if You are already familiar with their services.
Braille is very good here in all aspects of service to the visually handicapped, and there are a variety of people enrolled, of various social standing, ethnicity, religious and other preference.
I do not consider the search for companionship to be limited to those people , necessarily sharing the very same type of disabling condition as a given, however sometimes this preference may usually create a bond. Others may be attracted to the opposite, and relationships may be strengthened one partner possessing an ability to compensate for the disability of the other. It is so relative to the feelings, comprehension, and situation of those involved.
