    In my 20s I talked to a girl on a dating site for week or so then decided to meet up. She had kind of a slow slur to her speech that I tried not to let bother me but then she enthusiastically revealed that she got hit by a car and got brain damage, basically permanently mentally locking her at 17 years old.

    Nice girl, albeit noticeably immature. We did not go on another date.

        Yeah, it wasn’t because of the disability - it was because the disability made us incompatible. I’m not a genius or anything but I’m fairly smart and I crave the same in a partner. Also her only income was disability and selling knit hats on Etsy.

        Very nice girl but I honestly felt like a creep afterward. Like I just took a teenager out on a date.
