I just read an article about this in a magazine where a woman left her long-term boyfriend after he was in a motorcycle accident and became paralyzed...
Thoughts?
Thoughts?
Would you stay with your bf/gf if they became paralyzed??

My bf and I talk about this all the time. I think we've both decided we would not stay together if that happened.

Yes. I'm marrying him for reasons beyond that.

Why, Audrey? I'm not judging, just wondering.
I definitely would! If I were the one who was left paralyzed, I'd want my boyfriend to stand by me... |

Yes, definitely!! He's the father of our children, besides I don't just love him because he can walk.

We'd still be friends though.
Yes, I love them and nobody should go through that alone. |

Yes. I wouldn't stay with them JUST because of that, but they're still the same person.
Unless they suffer severe psychological effects because of the accident. Then, to be honest, I probably wouldn't. |

Of course i would stay with him. If you leave someone because of that then you really don't love them.

I guess it depends on what you mean by paralyzed. We've talked about it and if the entire body is paralyzed we would not stay together, but remain friends.
But who knows what would happen once actually in a situation like that.

I wanna say Yes, but honestly, I wouldn't know unless I was in the situation. Relationships are rough with just the weight of everyday life. I can't
even imagine.
I'd like to think I wouldn't leave him, though. Even if we broke up, we could still be friends. |

it would depend on how long we were together.
its easy to say you would until you get in that position. I know you love him for other reasons, but people sometimes change when something traumatic happens to them.you dont know how its going to affect them, affect how they are as a person, etc... Im not saying they will change for the worst, but sometimes they're never the same person again |

Why is it Naive? I know that it would be difficult and hard. I would hate to be left because something tragic happened to me.

I was actually shocked to see no mention of "Heck no! I still want sex" type of topics

Because until something happens, you really don't have any idea what you would do. You think you'd be that way, but you don't know for sure.

I like to think that I would. However, as Lisa said, it has never happened to me.
