Would you date a person with one arm or one leg?

Yes, I believe I would, but I could see it becoming a problem for some people. Not because they have anything against amputees, but if you are a rock climber, for example, dating someone who couldn't do that activity with you might not be the right match.

I would like to be honest here. Whenever I see a person with some disability I feel sympathy for them at the very first sight, and I guess this sympathy is something that will not let me fall in love with that person. There is no harm in dating a person who has one arm or leg but the thing here is that you should actually be in love with them and it shouldn't just happen because of sympathy for them.

I can't see why not. I don't know, because I only ever dated one person, I married him, and he happens to have two arms and two legs. But if he'd had a prosthetic arm or leg? I can't imagine it would have made a difference to how I feel about him. Love's blind. It really is. When you meet the right person, it won't matter how many arms or legs they have, how tall they are, how handsome they are, how rich they are...if you're evaluating people against a list of attributes, I honestly think they are not the one for you. If they were, you'd know.
