When we singles always want more and more of our dates and partners... Should we stop wanting this and that and just be in love with someone?
Since you ask a question like this, I assume you haven't loved anyone unconditionally yet. You'll know when that time comes. Til then, just be happy for those that have found it. And aspire to eventually understand what it is to love someone w/ that unselfishness.
I am insanely in love with a woman who can barely use her body but has an amazing mind and heart and soul. And even though she can barely move her body, she has an incredibly sexy body.
I have absolutely no idea what you mean by that statement. Who wants "more and more"?? You? Are you saying that people can just pick out some random person, and decide to make that person their partner...and that love, eventually, will come? Isn't that sort of the thought behind arranged marriages?
Seriously. The guy is a man of huge faith, as is his wife. Faith and values and convictions are, I imagine, the very core of these two people's relationship...and that is more than many people have. Do you have that much going for you?
Mod cut: personal insult.
While the woman I love has limbs, she can't use them. She can't tie her shoe herself or take a shower by herself or even lift a glass of water if it's full. I don't have religious values that make me able to love her or whatever. I just do. You fall for whoever you fall for, period. She broke up with me and I am completely crushed because I am still in love with her. Has nothing to do with religion or morals or whatever.
No. I'd constantly be saying the wrong thing. You know, like, "Hey, can you give me a hand here!" and "We're going to be late. C'mon! Shake a leg!" Stuff like that.
You can say all that stuff. Deaf people say "did you hear..." Blind people say "Oh I see." Wheelchair users say "I went for a walk." etc.

Sorry for your loss friend, but you totally missed my point.
Personally I don't see these two people as any more heroic than any other two people that fall in love.
You obviously confused my post...I said nothing about heroics. I was responding to the OP and her rather odd thought that people should just love someone...so either you misinterpreted MY post, or hers.
For that matter, this really looks at relationships with someone who has a disability, would you marry someone deaf? Or blind? Or someone who has no feelings for anyone but themselves? I know which disability I would rather not have in a partner...number three.
Yet so many people just look at the wrapping on a package, without going beyond that. "She is blonde, with large breasts, and a tiny waist"...I am in "love". Nothing about the real person beyond the facade. What if this "perfect" woman was a chronic drug addict, cruel, and selfish? Is that still the "ideal"? Or would a woman who was in a wheelchair, with limited range of motion, but devoted to you, loved you, and connected with you emotionally, mentally, and spiritually...which mate would make you happier in the end? And add to your life in a positive way?
