Love On Wheels.
You've been dating the girl of you dreams for over six years now. You recently proposed to her and plan to get married in a few months. On her way to work, she gets into a terrible car accident and loses the ability to walk. Forever. Would you reconsider marrying her or continue with it?
I can show you a move you've never seen. *WINK WINK*I recently saw a TV promo for the television show Push Girls and it got me interested enough to read more about the show. As I was watching and reading some of the interviews with these girls, one of them was in a similar situation I've mentioned above. So that got me thinking. Would I have a change of heart if my fiancee/girlfriend suddenly became paralyzed?
What would you do?

6 years is a long time. If you can't find anything in common or fun to do with the girl of your dreams besides the lower half of her body, you're out of luck.
If I was at that point that I wanted to be with them for the rest of my life I don't think I'd leave them if they were paralyzed. But who knows...
A friend once told me that when we lose one ability that often another ability will take over and allow us to excel.
Perhaps she is good at oral now.
TV has officially run out of ideas.
My friend was about to marry a guy when he got cancer. After some scary moments, he's in remission. He'll need $6,000 worth of medication for the rest of his life or he'll die. Neither of them have health insurance in America and are living abroad.
And she's still marrying him this November despite the challenges they will have <3
I would stay and learn to deal
On the upside, they have to be really good with their hands. On the downside, they'll beat you at arm wrestling.
I'd have to be a real dick if I left her after she got paralyzed. There's a special circle in hell for people like that, where there's a fully stocked bar, but you don't have cash and the devil doesn't take credit.
if you really love that person, you'll be with them. just gotta prepare mentally and physically for the hardships. cliché but it's true. some people can definitely do it.
I think the real question is, how the heck did the car hit her in the kitchen?
6 years is enough to build a very strong love. But if I was the one paralyzed, I wouldn't want him to marry me. Kind of how like if I turned into a vampire tonight, I wouldn't turn the guy I love into a vampire, just so we could be together forever. You want the best for those you love. Romantic love is a joke compared to platonic love.
They should call the show hot wheels instead!
Why reconsider if you already love the person?
I'd still be there for him and take care of him. I wouldn't love him any less.
A question that implies a brain and a conscience, also a heart. Such dilemma is so hard to imagine that we only know what to do when it happens in reality. But why marry in the first place..
@TheTheologiansCafe - The question is, would you be willing to change their diaper in exchange for the next 30 years or so...
I feel as though it you couldn't still by that person through their hard times then you shouldn't be with them or planning on marrying them in the first place. To truly love someone and have the love in return is a blessing. For so
Done to lose their ability to walk changes nothing about them bust you fell in love with but a physical feature and love is much more than a physical thing.
I know it's different for people who hypothetically think and people who are actually put in that situation, but of my bf or fiancé or whatever were to get into an accident like that and be paralyzed I would him all the same.
I would still marry him, but the questions is.. would you? o_O
ive always considered this possibility, and i still have no idea. i don't even know if i'd expect the flip side, if I was teh one in the wheel chair. i'd feel like such a burden, but idk
of course, whne you're older like 80 then yes that will be a given but given my past relationships (like that ONEEE crazy mofo) i want to say yes but i don't know
I would hope my love would not be conditional in that respect...
FLIP SIDE: If you were the one paralyzed, would you expect/desire your fiance to leave you for that fact..?
@Shopgirl0393 - STOP MAKING ME THINK, DD! :p
I've considered this possibility, because my fiancée seems to be developing MS.. and I've decided I'm in it for the long haul. There's things we can do together to take care of it. It's difficult, but through sickness and in health, for better or for worse.
I have asked myself the same question before and the answer was yes. If you're going to be with someone for the rest of your life, then you should be prepared for anything. But who knows some things are easier said then done...
On wheels but still so lovely. If I had a chance to date them I would love to, it is amazing to see those kind of women now.
