When you became unable to work?
or
when IT became unable to work?

So you went from being afraid(self esteem/ego issues) to just not being
interested?

Sometimes I wish I could pull that off(NPI!) but I never experienced a
dropoff in interest after my aneurysm+stroke. . .

Test-drove my new ability level with the girlfriend I had at the time,
and was happy to note that everything functioned, albeit with some
kinetic changes needed. . .

I was walking with a cane my first year, and a fella I worked with, who
was in a wheelchair told me the best thing for me to do to get women was
get a wheelchair, as he's never slowed down since! *LOL*

I don't know that I've had that much of a reaction since I had to get
the chair(unrelatedly)

But I do talk with women who will ask me if "things" work for me -- and
then it's up to me to play the "not sure, need help" story. . . *LOL*

Most I've met online so we've discussed details thoroughly before
meeting, so no surprises on either part. . .

Because I care,
