“I became permanently disabled at age 55, in a bicycle crash. I stayed single and focused on my recovery for the last 8 years. Then I heard about Dateability from someone on Instagram so I did the thing! I matched with Howard (San Francisco) and we chatted on the app. I first became attracted to his sense of humor. We decided to go off app for phone calls on February 12. It went well. So well that when I needed a surgery on March 12, he bought a ticket to fly here, drive me to my procedure, and care for me a couple days before flying home. We got to know each other-a lot of the modesty stuff and boundaries were discussed beforehand- let’s just say it all worked out better than anticipated. He has Parkinson’s Disease and it turns out our abilities complement one another. As an example, Howard can drive while I have a sitting disability that makes driving painful. In return, my steady hand sometimes helps us enjoy eating together.”

“I want to express my gratitude to Dateability for primarily giving me the gift of hope. I tried other dating apps and was stymied when ever it came time to discuss my disease. I gave up hope and started isolating— isolating is an easy cop out that can eventually kill me. Fortunately Dateability helps people to bust the deadly isolation and reach out and connect with new friends. Aspects of my disease that make me unappreciated on other apps are not an obstacle on Dateability.”

“I found the right person and that’s what counts. I don’t remember the exact content of all those messages, but it seemed like we really connected, and within a few weeks, we decided to meet in real life. We exchanged phone numbers, we started texting nonstop. We still text nonstop.”

“I feel like most guys would see the chair and be scared off or have no idea what to do. I think it’s nice we can just kind of do things together. He’s so accepting and loving. I don’t worry about him getting scared away because of my disability.”

“I’m sure you get a lot of these but I wanted to tell you my story anyway. I was an early user of your app. I saw a post from @the20somethingspoonie and thought I’d give it a try. It was November of 2022. At first, probably because of the small pool, I wasn’t having much luck but then in the second week of December 2022, I received a like from a user named Jack. Now almost a year later, we are planning on moving in together in the next couple of months. Thanks to your app I found my soulmate. I never would have met him without it, as he lives 900 miles away. So many visits and months later, we still talk about how thankful we are to have met on your app. So even early on you helped a house bound 20 yr old with EDS, POTS, ME/CFS, and MCAS connect with the person she is sure that she will spend the rest of her life with. Thank you.”
