I can relate bud, I don't have any speech issues, but I do have mild CP in my hand and foot and walk with a limp. I used to be very intimidated about talking to women and asking them out because of my CP, but as I'm getting older I'm not anymore.

I just quit caring about what anyone thinks of me man, I'm sort of a loose cannon now so to speak. I just don't care anymore, life is too short to care and worry.

My advice is if your interested in them or if you see some of these women often just strike up a conversation with whichever one your most interested in and go from there. Just don't come on too strong, just see where it leads, that's what would scare them off, not your CP. I know from personal experience it's pretty hard to start a conversation with a stranger when there's nothing to talk about or you know nothing about them. I know it frustrates me! lol.

Like I said if there's one gal in particular that you see everytime you go to the park or every so often talk to her. Just be like 'hey I see you here all the time but I never introduced myself,' and go from there. If you see her a lot you don't even have to ask her out the first time you meet her, there's plenty of time. I'd actually ask her if she would wanna walk together sometime first, then you can get to know her first.

Your CP won't scare her, I haven't met a woman yet that has been scared of my CP. If anything most are caring and sweet about it which I don't mind. You look like a good looking guy, she won't be scared of you, just have no fear and be confident bud, you only live once. Break the ice with a joke or something too, there's nothing better then to make a woman smile.

In the words of Coldplay lol, "If you never try then you'll never know." Well I hope that helps, good luck to you.

Hey man I Know where your coming from. But you can't let your disability stop from being happy.

I've been rejected so many times. But I view that as good practice. you can't be scared to approach women. When the right one comes along. It'll all fall into place. and she'll value u for who and what u are.

Just don't give up. Don't be afraid to ask the ladies out. Because the more u try. the more your chances will improve. The day the u least expect it. It Will happen.

I'm Still at it too. So I know it can be frusterating. Just be positive. U keep me updated plz.

Don't be scared. You'd be surprised what can happen if you just have faith in yourself.

thanks guys. your advices help me a lot. a lady who always say hi to me. she have a son and i look at her hand, she don't have a ring on. so what can i do? and also if she say yeah where i can take? any suggestions?

big thanks

If you like kids I'd say go for it. No ring is good. Just be careful till you get to know her. I'd ask about her son, like what his name is or how old is he. Shows your interested in her at a deeper level then like hitting on her or whatever.

Where to take her if she says yes? Um, I'd ask to walk with her that day first then after your walk maybe ask her to go for a soda or something. You have to be tired after a walk so she might say yes. That'd be a good start, nothing too nerve racking, just going for a drink and you can still get to know her.

Good luck I hope everything works out.
