Who are you calling deaf, buster? This kind of rant would most likely be a huge turn-off for any dev.

I can only imagine how dinner would go. He'd only allow discussion of his disability and her being a dev. No names, no getting to know one another. Halfway through, frustrated by the audacity of the dev asking if he's enjoying his meal he leaves and never talks to her again.
Anyway, if any female devs are in the Phoenix area and wanna grab dinner lemme know. I'll even allow meaningless conversation.

I have to back up coybrit, I've had enough of this, too. We should give guy a break, let him deal with his own demons. If we can't be constructive, we shouldn't be obstructive either.

no one is perfect, I am not going to hold a different standard for this guy. Some of us are pretty close.

So, I finally met with Giovanni aka swiftsilver89 yesterday and we had a wonderful time together. I got to know him as a perfect gentleman; kind, warm-hearted, thoughtful, funny, smart and a very good listener. He came all the way from Luxembourg just to take me out to dinner. Even though I had offered to meet somewhere in the middle, he insisted on coming to my place in order to make it easier for me to arrange with my children. I don’t intend to take sides, but I am posting this here because I think that it is a pity and a loss for both sides. He could have learned a lot from PD, and I am convinced that he would have been an enrichment to PD. I sometimes wish people would be less judgmental and not make up their mind about others too quickly.

Devs bullying people away has been a problem on this board for as long as I've been here. He got several earfuls from male PWDs on this board too. I would say there was a 50/50 participation from PWDs and Devs. Anyway, swiftsilver, if you're reading this: Sorry this is how things went for you. Negative interactions on the internet, especially in message boards, can be quite hurtful. I hope this does not bother you for too long. I've been there and it made me feel like shit. There's nothing wrong with struggling with your disability or with the concept of devs. You'll find your way just as everyone else here will. Best of luck and au revoir.
