    Hard of Hearing in College

    Yeah if you're lucky you'll find those few people who are able to look past the hearing aids and etc. They're cool. It's just when people are ignorant is the problem. Some people act as if it's a disease and they might catch it by interacting with you. Heck some people are afraid to have...

    Hard of Hearing in College

    I wouldn't exactly say that I missed my chance. See the thing about this is that I'm apart of a organization that assigns it's members to groups. Before hand this girl wasn't in any of my groups at all since I joined. So the only time I saw her was at main meetings. That all changed this...

    She is testy like that. I actually said hello and how are you to her a while back. She responded back. That was it. Just stopped there. The thing is she pretty much talks to everyone at this group. However when it comes to me, everything is short. Honestly she's really hard to figure out. We're...

    Thanks for the reply. You're right. We are judged regardless if we have a disability of not in this society. I'm curious to know. Were you slightly hesitant to date your boyfriend when he asked you out? How did that happen? Maybe this sounds super lame, but I'm trying to figure out how to go...

    Exactly. One of the things I absolutely hate is when people learn that you are deaf/HOH and automatically assume they can't converse with you. Or if they find out, then they start to make assumptions. I can honestly say that not a lot of girls have taken time to get to know me. It's not just...

    I agree. That seems to be the case with a lot of girls and guys here. I never had anything handed to me like that. I always had to work harder than everyone else do to being HoH. I'm just greatful I got into college. So I'm already trying to have my focus on finishing. It just sucks to be here...

    Hard of Hearing in College

    I almost took a sign language course over the summer at another school, but things didn't work out financially. smh. I seriously want to find something like that on this campus, but it isn't offered. I did see something about a deaf/HoH group, but that was a few years ago and the group doesn't...

    Hard of Hearing in College

    I am a part of some clubs on campus, but none of them have hoh/deaf people. I'm the only person that I know of on campus that is hoh. Another thing is that this campus has a lot of girls that care about status. So trying to explain to someone that I'm hoh may be difficult. It's a young crowd and...

    Hard of Hearing in College

    Hello! :wave: I'm new to the AllDeaf community. Currently I'm a college student at UNC Charlotte. Lately I've been struggling with the whole deal of dating. Heck to be honest I've never dated before. I think part of that may deal with me being a hard of hearing person. All I've gotten from...
