I did have a couple dates with other average size guys just before I started going with my husband. I went to a couple conventions but never seemed to hook up with an LP to date (I have never been asked out by an LP, I was asked out by average size guys). Of course I found the " competition " tough at convention and I wasn't one to really chase a guy. There were a lot more women to men in the ratio and there were some real beauties available to boot! Honestly, I don't think I have a real preference as my mom was average size and my dad was an LP. Be it average size or LP, I was exposed to both. The fates didn't bring an LP man into my life (of course I feel I wasn't mature enough for a serious relationship until I was 20) but in my mind the big guy upstairs had his hand in my life and love is love.... average or LP. What is meant to be will be. My destiny happens to be with an average size man. And I do have to say he is a real treasure. -- ·´¯'·.. ><((((º>'·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸.·´¯'·...¸><((((º>·´¯'·.. ><((((º>'·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸.·´¯'·...¸><((((º>·´¯'·.. ><((((º>'·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸.·´¯'·...¸><((((º>·´¯'·.. ><((((º>'·.¸¸.·´¯'·.¸.·´¯'·...¸><((((º>·´¯'·..

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 I had that same issue happen once, while I was at work. I worked at a food court at the University that is near me. We had different highschools in that week for competitions held at the University. There was an LP that was about 17, or so, that was with one of the schools. All my co workers kept encouraging me to go talk to him and calling him my future husband. Although, none of them knew I wasn't interested in dating guys.. I later blew up at em, because they wouldn't leave me alone about it.. Needless to say nothing was ever mentioned about my love life after that. I REALLY know how to make friends!!

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Hello Kate! I have been involved with both types. I have OI (brittle bones), am short, and use a wheelchair. I found it hard through life to meet guys when I was younger due to I was disabled and the fact that I was extrememly shy and self confident. I dated mostly other disableds because they were ones that would approach me. And the few AB's AP's (abled bodied, average hieght person) that had any interested, were not my type at all. Size was not much of an issue for me growing up, I just wanted someone that we had interests in common, who made me laugh and was very affectionate and smart, but I was always curious to see what it would be like to be with someone who has the same type of dwarfism as myself, some one to relate to and had had some of the same experiences I had, but never really met any one that had OI that I liked in that way. Well after dating for a while I met Kurt online. He had OI and we were VERY similar in the way we looked at life, our theories, our interests it was freaky! We became very good friends and fell in love, i moved to California to be with him (from miami) and have been extremely happy since, we have a connection that I never thought possible. He is my soul mate, my twin, my best friend. I am not saying here that because 2 ppl have the same disability, size or whatever that they should be together, it was just so that Kurt had all the qualities I wanted my whole life in a man; funny, warm, affectionat, smart, motivated, fun, driven, sexy, a musician, has long hair (mm mmm) and he happened to be my size too! It's kinda neat beacuse I can put my arms all away around him when we hug. So I guess my point here, is that it doesnt make the size of a person a better partner( i sound like Dr Ruth lol), but its nice to have some one thats been in your boat and knows what its like to be in your shoes, but not to base a whole relationship on. Hope that helped ya! ~Bonnie http://www.geocities.com/oichick621/ > Hi everyone, > > I was wondering if any of you are married or are in > relationships with " average " sized individuals.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Yes, I have been in a couple of LP relationships...very brief ones...but your post brought up an issue that I had to nip in the bud this week. The landlord has an LP guy on his painter crew and a few of the painters thought it would be " cute " if we got together. Nothing drives me up the wall more than the " looks like a match therefore they should be together " attitude. Karin Curious question Hi everyone, I was wondering if any of you are married or are in relationships with " average " sized individuals. If so, have you ever been in a relationship with an LP as well? Thanks! Kate __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Hi all - I’m new to this list, 31 years young next week and living in my beautiful hometown of San Francisco. I have never dated an LP – in fact, I never actually met any until about a year and a half ago! I’m currently in a relationship with an average-sized guy (he’s 5’9” and I’m 4’9”). I can relate to what the others said about the presumed “fix-up” or association with other LPs. Just the other day, an LP client came into our office to meet with a colleague of mine and my boss happened to notice him sitting on the couch waiting. As my boss happened by my office, he said, “There’s someone waiting for you in the lobby” because he naturally assumed the guy was there to see me!

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2003 Report Share Posted October 14, 2003 If I am dealing with a passing stranger then I will just call it a hearing aid. Sometimes I will have contact with someone for a longer period of time and then I will say it's a cochlear implant. If they ask what that is, I tell them more. If not, then I just leave it. No one would be any less careful with what they thought was a hearing aid than if they knew what it really was, in my opinion.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2003 Report Share Posted October 14, 2003 I take mine off and show them that it is not a hearing aid. I have the area shaved where I keep the headpiece because mine tends to fall off real easy. I usually wear the bwp though. The sound is better and the quality is much much better for me.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 I have a curious question that was asking about...she has times where her feet (predominately) and hands become so hot they give off heat like a heating pad...they feel as if they are on fire. She does not really have more pain than usual at these times; it is a dry heat, like with a fever, no perspiration. We are both just curious if anyone else has experienced anything similar to this with their children?

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 There is a condition called erythromelalgia. Check out this website about it: http://www.erythromelalgia.org/tea/skins/cms/index.php Apparently it can happen anywhere on the body but starts with the feet. I learned about it from a psoriatic arthritis group I am in. Several people there have this condition.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Hi , Josh hasn't had that same thing as has, with one or two specific parts of his body radiating heat. I'd be curious. Does she take her temperature when this happens? Josh has had so many arthritis-related fevers since his diagnosis that in the past couple of years he often just doesn't want to be bothered taking his temperature. Even when he won't, I can often tell by just being close to him that he's got a fever. The heat radiates from his trunk (chest and back) but sometimes you can feel the warmth just casually touching his arms or hands. When he checks it, it's usually never higher than the 103.3 mark. Far better than when he was little, when we hadn't gained good enough control of the arthritis. It used to go as high as 106+ on a regular basis. Cold hands and feet I've heard about being related to specific disorders. Not the opposite, though. Have you tried Googling it?
