You turned up for a social meet with a guy and he was in a wheelchair? I don't know if it's ok to talk about it on here but this happened to me a few weeks ago. He had a very good profile, with verifications saying what a nice guy he was but no mention that he was severely disabled so I really wasn't expecting it. He told me when we met that he'd broken his back 20 years ago. I was pretty gobsmacked to be honest and didn't really know how to react. We'd even had a chat on the phone and he hadn't mentioned it.
We had a pleasant enough evening but I decided not to meet again as it wasn't what I was looking for. I felt really bad about it afterwards but also bit deceived as he hadn't mentioned quite an important fact about himself before we met. I wondered how other women would feel if this had happened to them. Obviously everyone has a right to a sex life, regardless of their disabilities but I think it's only fair to tell someone else beforehand? |

I always mention that I am ugly before arranging a meet. It would not be right otherwise. |

Personally I think it only fair to have mentioned it to you so you could make an informed choice |

It's the kind of thing I'd expect someone to tell me. Probably wouldn't make a difference to me but it's nice to know. Maybe he was scared of rejection, but it's almost as bad as using different pics to get a meet as you are scared of rejection |

I suppose none of us advertise our bad points on here (obviously, I am perfect, like everyone else reading this!)
It is hard enough to get even a social meet on here as a single male, so you wouldn't want to reduce your chances by stating something that might put someone off. Poor chap was hoping you could see beyond the disability and the wheelchair.
But yes, it would still surprise me if the person I was meeting had omitted to mention it. Would it put me off? No, not on its own. |

Oh god wish I never opened this thread. Honestly if I met a handsome guy with a dick that still worked and he was in a wheelchair it would open up a whole can of worms and fetishes I have that I don't feel I can discuss.
It wouldn't put me off though, but to answer your question, yes it should've been mentioned before meeting. |

It's better to be honest, no point in trying to be dishonest about, a disability, size,age,etc, because you get found out if you meet,I've met a few that say they are non smokers, but they do lol,another said he was 6ft 2, he was so short I could pat him.on his head  |

He did have veris from pp he'd met in clubs who all said he was a nice guy. No mention of his disability. I just felt disappointed really and shocked as it just wasn't what I was expecting! He knew what he had done as he said, 'I know it's a bit of a shock but you did say you wanted an intellectual connection ' |

Hmmm, difficult one, having met him, did you verify him? if you did, did you mention the unmentionable?  |

If I was in a wheelchair I'd have to mention it
I don't think I would like any sort of negative response if it shocked some one who wasn't expecting it
I think he was brave to do what he did,maybe he's had a lot of knockbacks because he's mentioned it before a meet
Maybe he doesn't see it as any sort of problem so didn't think it worth mentioning  |

I think he should have told you in advance. I met a guy ages ago who had shattered part of his spine and walked with a stick - it wasn't a problem at all because he'd told me about it quite early on and could answer any questions I had about how it would affect the sex, which I probably wouldn't have been comfortable about if I'd been caught off guard. |

I'm on the fence about this. Why should he mention it? At what point does being differently abled become something you need to mention before a meet, is one walking stick ok to keep quiet about but two something that needs to be declared, at what level of visual or hearing impairment should we let people know before we meet?
I don't know the answers. |

"I've been known to 'warn' people that I sometimes wear glasses instead of contact lenses in case they're anti-specs! "
Yeah that confused me HH last weekend I was expecting you in glasses and saw you in contacts
Lol I might upload a photo of me in glasses just to confuse people as I don't normally wear them only for cinema and when I try to look clever
Going back to the wheelchair I would want someone to tell me beforehand as I think it would be important |

She was verified a week ago, i would guess its from him.
I think it should been mentioned prior to meeting, but equally its just a social, so I wouldn't be annoyed or put off, if anything I would feel dismayed that he didn't feel comfortable with our conversation to tell me |

My bad I didn't look at the veri summary. I think I'd be a bit put out if he didn't mention it previously. |

I met a guy in a wheelchair and he was great. He did tell me before and told me what he could and couldn't do. It didn't put me off meeting him but I was glad he told me.
This guy should have really but perhaps he thought he'd take a chance and get you there at least x |

Tbh its happened to me well he disclosed his disability as o. Was on my way to meet him. But in all fairness we had a great social meet and we did meet again for dinner and drinks a few weeks later , his legs don't work but his fingers and tongue do and his personality is second to none... He did agree though that he should of informed me earlier about the wheelchair but we have become great pals now.. |

Where men are men, and sheep are nervous...! |
"... I wondered how other women would feel if this had happened to them. Obviously everyone has a right to a sex life, regardless of their disabilities but I think it's only fair to tell someone else beforehand? "
Strangely, I was told a very similar story to this on the first NSA site I was on about 6-7 years ago. A lady I chatted with on there had gone to have dinner with a guy she'd been chatting to for a while who she broke a rule for as he was at least ten years over her upper age limit anyway.
When he came into the restaurant.. on his disability scooter with his prosthetic leg strapped to the back seat.... things changed a bit. She had the meal, but wouldn't see him again either.
*****
I have a blind mate of mine. He's a couple of years younger than me and I've known him since I was about 20. He's a very talented musician and very confident in may ways. But... he cannot face his own blindness and expects everyone else to 'see' (no pun int!) beyond it. I am not the only one who has said to him that things will change for him (he's never had a proper relationship and as far as I know is still a virgin) when HE faces up to his own blindness - and stops expecting others to see past it...
I wonder whether some or all of this is what is behind this guy who the OP, and the lady in the other story I was told, both met? They want YOU to see past their disability, rather than them confronting it...?
Before you jump down my throat, I do not have anyone who is severely disabled in the ways described in my family so I can only come at this from my experience, specially dealing with my blind friend, so apologies if I have offended anyone as I know there are quite a few disabled Fabbers on here.. |

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum |
I would be very upset if a guy I was meeting neglected to mention something noticeable that might affect the way the meeting will go. There is a level of honesty expected between two people that may get naked together. I don't expect his bank account details, but I do expect to know whether I can go on rambles across the Yorkshire Dales with him. |

Actually - I do!!
I point out all my flaws very clearly so people can make an informed decision as to whether to meet me! I do this because I'd hate to see anyone's face fall when I strip off!!  |

Well firstly, if I were to post something like this I know the forumites would be hating on me for posting something about another fabber. So far you're in the clear 
Secondly, yes I think you have the right to make an informed decision about the people you meet, but maybe because it was a social meet he wanted a chance to explain or let you see him and not his disability. On the fence about it as I understand how you are feeling, but also how he feels too. |
