In all honesty, there are many reasons why I would not get involved. In my opinion having a partner that has any sort of disability that requires caretaking is a Huge load of responsibility. I would have to Love Him wholly in order to make that kind of commitment. Then there are needs, yes needs, that cannot be fullfilled simply due to circumstances, and I can see myself being unhappy long term in a relationship. Along with the responsibility and commitment, there would be a sense of obligation if the relationship wasnt working out, Id still feel responsible for taking care of this person regardless of the situation. It is the load of commitment and responsibility that I think would keep someone at bay. To have a partner in that condition can emotionally taxing. I hope I don't come off as offensive either, its just my opinion of why I dont think that kind of situation would work for me.On a friendly basis, there is no problem. Id be more than willing to help where I can, but I wouldnt be able to let myself become more attached than that. Its a self preservation thing...
