Say a "special" person who had down syndrome wanted to date you and had a crush on you do you refuse or do yield to their demands?

If you no you risk hurting that persons feelings and being called insensitive to the disabled BUT if you say yes that person may go further and ask you to marry him/her or have child with him/her.

So what decision do you make?

Are you going to risk going second base with that person or do you ignore them and risk hurting their feelings?
And if you say yes you'll also being doing it for charity and be rewarded a handsome check.

I would reject them in nice way. I will let them understand that I had only thought of them as friends & we had always been great friends.

I think relationships isn't something you can use as charity. If you don't like that person & you force yourself to accept them, its just going to leave even more complications in the future..

Reject. I can't be acting like a gf to someone just cause of sympathy.

I'd go on a date if I really got along with the person and found them fun. People don't get special treatment in love just because they are disabled. I've known some special guys that were great and some that were jerks. Peaople are people, that's all there really is to it.

sorry, but why do you always make threads with weird questions?
-- like the would you eat your boyfriend one >_>



you have to realize that a relationship is a two-sided thing. all your questions ask someone to be selfish, I mean do you think the special person would be happy just because you went out with them based on pity and not real love? if you go out with them for the check, it doesn't make you a very good person either, does it?

Hahahah! That made me laugh for a disturbingly long time.


On topic; No, I wouldn't. Not unless I was actually attracted to the person anyway.

It's kinda funny when you say that going on a date with someone would lead to marriage. Seriously, people go on dates all the time, probably will different people in the same time span. Does that mean they're cheating on one date with the others? Or that they're going to marry the person they're dating? No. It means they either see their dates as potential partners or would maybe like to give them a chance.

So my answer to you? Why not go on a date, see what they're like and if you like them. Going on a date does not mean you guys are going steady, so if you don't like them, it's not the end of the world, and you shouldn't force yourself to 'love them' out of pity...because that's just really insulting to that person.

And in a society like ours, not liking someone because of a disability is just plain ignorant and arrogant.

if this is not a level, you're a douche.

what a dumb question. if a "special" person asks you out, you say yes or no according to how you feel about them. you dont ask on a message board whether or not to date a special person just based on the fact that they're "special". i think you should reevaluate who the "special" one is.

and how is dating a retard doing an act of charity that should be rewarded handsomely later? what charity? special people aren't charity cases just because they're disabled. its not even good karma to date someone just so you can get good karma later loser. your intentions aren't altruistic. you know what, maybe you should say yes, this may be your only chance in dating someone in your league

No, because the relationship would not go well if you do not like that person,
and that person will just get hurt more in the future if you do say yes...
and if you marry someone you will do not like... you just basically ruined the rest of your life

Same as a "normal" guy, reject nicely and stay as a friend. You should be honest and kind whoever it is you're rejecting

I'd refuse. How is refusing a date being insensitive to a whole demographic of people?
If you go on a date you automatically have to get to second base with her?
If you get paid it's not really charity, is it? But now that money is involved, my answer would still be no.

I will reject.
And I'm sorry, I think that will not happen at all.
Unless you are a 10 year old who complains at things like that.

Her: Hey I love you, bla bla bla. Wanna be my bf
me: sorry but No
Her: Just because I'm disabled T.T

no. That is lame. I think that is a 10 year old line. I don't think people would complain like that.
I mean, she probably knows that is the reason, but people wouldn't be dumb enough to make the FRIENDSHIP even more awkward by saying that line.

Well I mean, yeah I guess it's the truth, we don't like that person because he/she is disabled.
But After all, Love can't be forced. If you don't like her, then you just don't I guess.

Thank you.

If it's not love, then that would be more like babysitting. deformity or not.

The standard is to be rich and handsome. Of course this falls below the acceptance level. No girl will say yes, unless he is very rich.
