:Di work in customer service. deal with hearing people ALL day long.
they do not always know i am Deaf. would you place a 'sign' that states you are Deaf to let hearing customer know?
just curious.

1. covering mouth when they speak (or talking with mouth full of food)
2. assuming i understand everything they say!
3. turn up your hearing aid means, so you can hear me.
4. not facing me in coversation.
i could go on and on.
:shock:
:P I totally agree! Just think how wonderful it will be to learn another language. You will be able to communicate with your child and ASL is a beautiful, visual language you will love!
This is so true. And sad.
In my eyes, I am married, but the state of NJ calls it Civil Union. I'm hoping one day that we will be married in the eyes of the state and federally as well.
I hope to see this in my lifetime.
First off...YOU ARE NOT WORTHLESS.
My suggestion to you is: Sit down and have a heart to heart with your spouse...let him know how you feel and what you are going through. He needs to be patient and understanding with you, especially right now. Also, I don't know if you know ASL or not...
where did you find your pin? i'm assuming online? that's creative.
for the most part i don't like to be tapped on the shoulder from behind, there is a woman at work who does that and it scares the *poop* out of me every time. and i tell her, but she still does it. whatever, i suppose...
to each his/her own. when it feels right, then you know and you want to marry that person. i knew i was going to be with my partner forever the moment i layed eyes on her. we've been together slightly over a year and are engaged to marry in may 2008. when you know you just "know".
ha. or i like how if you can hear just alittle bit and you speak well, people at work may not think your deaf. or your faking it. :pissed: people are dumb.
