I am right outside of New York City and I would image you could encounter the same lack of available partners here. I think that you do have to expand your search way beyond the UK. In fact, when you came back and posted again, I was a bit suprised. I am always under the assumption that the gay men on our site (dis and not) partner up off board via private messages more easily than any other group. I do not know where you can look either. A minority within a minority. I think the best thing to do is what you have done here - putting it out in the open. If someone reads this and is interested at least they can make contact with you. Best of luck.

I agree with BA you have to broaden your search beyond the UK. Your searching for a very rare guy and just looking in one metropolitan area, regardless of how big it is really limits you. Many dev-disabled couples met online while living states or countries away from each other. Good luck.

The first good looking para I've ever seen in Brussels flashed me back a ear-to-ear smile and headed right into the Homo Erectus bar... ;D Brussels is just a quick train ride from London - I'd say give it a try.  |

Sorry to hear you've been having a hard time, but we are right there with you. Even us straight girls have experienced the same frustration trying to meet guys. I agree, you have to widen your search, and the parameters of who you will consider meeting. Don't pass up meeting someone just because his disability is a bit different from the one you fantasize about. I've also found you'll have better luck going to places/events for disabled people, rather than going to a bar or club and hoping a wheeler shows up.
I have noticed though that the gay guys here seem to post once or twice then disappear. Is it because they are hooking up offline? Or because they are not getting any replies? I'd like this board to be equally open to hetero women and gay guys, but maybe the cultures are just too different.
