Finding Someone Special
Opening Topic for Open Chat Night: Does your significant other also have hearing loss?
During the past several months, I have been conducting a poll on my Website asking if your significant other also has hearing loss. About 34 percent of the votes responded with “yes.”
I am curious to know because I have been looking to meet someone myself. It has been very challenging for me to find someone and build any kind of close relationship. I sometimes question myself whether part of the reason for not meeting someone is due to my hearing loss. Would any girl I approach perceive me different than a normal guy only because I wear hearing aids? But, I know other things too have played a major factor such as my shyness and being anti-social. I’m trying very hard to change all of that and hopefully this will help me find a girlfriend down the road.
I had posted blogs earlier about my online dating experience and other social avenues for meeting people. What are the pros and cons for building a relationship with someone, whether they have hearing loss or not? Share your past experiences for being single and dating or married. I think this will be beneficial for me and others in the hearing loss community looking to find someone special.
