I was shocked knowing this guy was completely shocked.
This is proof that some guys are totally clueless about the online dating market.
Guys have been getting ghosted or flaked on for much less than this. The market has been like this for decades.

This is what he wrote:
I have a similar story I was talking to a girl online one night and when I mentioned I was in a wheelchair she ghosted me.
No questions or anything like that just automatically ghosted

A lot of men especially younger men are socially stunted. If they have bad social skills how do you think their social awareness fares with women? If you're a guy in your 30s/40s still fit, got your stuff together you shouldn't have an issue meeting women in their mid-20s. These women are so frustrated meeting men who can't hold a decent conversation that they are actually happy to deal with an older man who can hold a conversation

The bar is really low for Gen-Z dating, the amount of men that lack social awareness is at an all-time high. A guy who has charisma is fit, and has his stuff together will easily be cleaning up or should.

Men have gotten ghosted for a lot less than being in a wheelchair.

Did you read the post?

He didn't get ghosted because he had no social skills, he got ghosted because his text messages went through green.

It is in fact a really stupid reason, but that's where we are now. On my dating profiles I don't list my politics, my religion, my astrology sign, barely anything other than my age, and the fact that I'm 6 feet tall.

EDIT: If you're referring to that specific comment about the wheelchair, I mean yeah...cmon man, you should expect that to be a dealbreaker for a lot of people.

I read the post I was speaking in about the wheelchair guy and in general I don't disagree with you, spot on as always

You essentially upped your VALUE in her eyes by showing her that, if she wants you, she has to at times do things that you like to do. You are SOMETHING after all. You are NOT FREE. If she wants to hang with you, it's going to cost her something — time, effort, money.
