Can someone who is mentally handicapped date somebody who isn't?

[Anonymous]

Is it possible at all?

[Curmudgeon]

Do you mean retardation, or some other issue? Plenty of very bright people have anxiety or depression issues and the like, and those are mental handicaps, believe me.

[Asker]

I didn't wanna say it but retardation.

[Curmudgeon]

That probably is harder I think.

[Asker]

Yeah, I found out a woman like this likes me.

[TheSpaceGnome]

it wouldn't work out. People need to be on equal footing mentally to get along well long term.

[Anonymous]

Of course, people do it all the time.

[Asker]

Oh, I wash aware.
