Crushing on someone *somewhat* disabled?

Posted: August 1st, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Travel For Disabled | Tags: , , , | 11 Comments »

Hey. So I’m on vacation right now and there is this guy about my age who comes to the pool every evening.
The first day I noticed him was the day before yesterday. He sits with his shirt on and shorts on and dangles his feet in the hot tub and watches the rest of the kids swim. He doesn’t even go near the water. Yesterday I was swimming with my sister and and I have bad eyesight so I asked my sister who he was looking at and she said he was watching me swim. I think that he wants to join in but I think something is wrong with him?
He has bags under his eyes and he walks with a big limp. That’s all I can tell is wrong with him. And also he has no friends. He hangs out with his dad and his dads friend. He doesn’t even swim with his 10 year old brother.
I’ve never heard him talk b4 and I think I might like him.
Does anyone know what might be wrong or how I make a move? I’m only on vacation for a week and a half more.

Thanks :)
Ps. Please don’t judge me about “liking crippled kids”. I’m not even sure if I like him yet and I’m one of those people who see everyone as an equal no matter what condition. I’m willing to see past disabilities because it’s stupid not to. They’re just like us.

    I’m not sure what’s wrong with him, but I would say just go talk to him. Strike up a conversation about anything…just talk to him. If he doesn’t seem to have many friends, he would probably appreciate the company. As for people making fun of you for “liking crippled kids”, screw them. You have the right idea about seeing past disabilities.

    Just go up and talk to him, simple.

    Just talk to him.
    Sit down next to him, dangle your feet in the water, and flash him a big smile. Then say, “Hi, my name is _________.”

    The rest should take care of itself.

    I’d say just go up to him and say hi =) Ask him about where he’s from, if he’s enjoying his vacation and stuff like that, I’m sure he’ll like that you’ve made the effort to go talk to him.

    If anyone judges you they’re idiots, they have no right to judge you or what you do so just go say hey, what have you got to lose? =) Good luck!

    I think the best thing to do would be to go up to him, say hi and introduce yourself. Ask if he is on vacation as well and strike up a conversation. I think that would be the best and most mature move. Just see where it goes from there. Don’t wait too long to do it otherwise you’ll regret it if you find out you have a lot in common and you could have spent more time together if you just would have spoken up sooner. Good luck!

    First off, the only “disability” I see is his limp. Which is not a disability. You think he is cute and atrractive, so go talk to him. Ask him if he wants to sit in the hot tub with you. If he says no, he may not be interested. If he turns a little red and says no, he may be afraid of water.

    Just be flirty and say hello to him. You never know, he could have a girlfriend at home (assuming he is also on vaca) that he misses being around.

    Nothing can hurt by saying hello and sit in the hot tub and chit chat.

    Goodddd luckkkk.

    Just feel him up and go for his c*ck, bet that’ll make him start talking. Probably just needs a nice little bl*wjob to get him riled up and talking.

    I like your attitude, good girl.
    Hope this helps…walk over to him and say something shocking like “Hey I know we don’t know each other but can I ask you a question? (wait for reply then ask him) if I was drowning over there would you try to save me?” If he can’t swim he will tell you and if he can swim hopefully he’ll say “yes i would” lol.
    Either way you opened the door for conversation. If it feels right, ask him if he wants to swim a lap with ya. If he agrees, then say something like “this water feels great doesn’t it?”
    Take it from there at your own pace with simple talk like “so ya live here”.
    You can do it girl, I got faith in ya. If you don’t you’ll always wander and wish you did.
    Goodluck

    pursuing a disabled person is just like pursuing anybody else. just don’t ask him about his disability. wait for him to bring it up if he wants to. even if the curiosity is eating you up practice self restraint. he wants to feel like he belongs and if you start asking him about his disability he will start to feel different.

    my prediction is that he’s not going to be very outgoing so you may have to be willing to deal with that if you want to get anything going.
