Was leaving a medical office yesterday evening, and a very beautiful, platinum blonde woman who happened to be in a wheelchair was leaving at the same time. We rode the elevator down, and made small talk. I held the outside door as she wheeled out. She stopped, turned and faced me, and said, "thanks and I want to let you know that I think you're very handsome." I didn't know what to do so I just said, "thanks, and have a good night." Her face was beautiful, smiling and afterwards I thought to myself, "was she giving me an opening to approach her?" I then felt ashamed of myself because had she not been in a wheelchair, I know I would have continued with small talk, etc., until I knew whether she was interested. Has anyone had a similar experience and why the trepidation in approaching someone with a handicap? I've never been with a woman who didn't have use of her legs, but this woman had total command of wheelchair, appeared to be headed to her own vehicle, and for hours I thought "I would have enjoyed being with her, handicap or not." Are there do's and don'ts and why am I still picturing us together (guilt, or the feeling that I may have missed out on an enjoyable opportunity)?
