I still love my woman, its just the frustration that she's hearing. She knows sign ( well learning more) no official classes yet. I mostly taught her what I could. She doesn't have Deaf culture understanding as much as she thinks she does. Though we fight and such, doesn't warrant to leave unless she was being abusive which she isn't just annoying the fact that most hearing do not understand or sympathize our culture's hardship. that's all.
That might be the case often, but not always... please don't judge all hearing people this way. I am completely hearing, but just because I was born that way doesn't mean that I am angry and treat others who don't have the ability to hear in a rude manner. Many kind hearing people I know, and myself are very patient and willing to learn and converse with non-hearing individuals. Just because people were born(or became) different, doesn't mean that they can't be friends or even be in relationships. Everyone is a human, and there is NO such thing as one being who is "better" than another human being just because of the way they were born. It all depends on the person, their patience, their attitude, and their outlook on life.
Life has no limits, only obstacles that build you up to a successful future.
But to answer your question, nothing. You didn't do anything (and no one ever did) to deserve something that horrible. Everyone deserves better than that
(I really don't mean to offend, and if I did... I apologize for that! )
Can I ask you what it is you love about her?
...
And B.B. you don't deserve to feel frustrated all the time, neither does she. You need to either find a middle ground where you both are making effort to understand the view point of eachother... or you need to assess if the partnership (which is what it should be) is a good fit for the two of you.
....
We're good thanks. Though we're similar to your statement. The original topic was meant to be broad, general not personal.
all good.
Why is it that every hearing person in a relationship with a Deaf/hoh always angry and frustrated at every thing we do? I don't understand and it has gotten to me so much. Why do we deserve it?
If you reply, keep it clean, and respectable thank you.
- B.B.
If I dated someone who was easily frustrated about my deafness, I didn't date them for long but I do have to say that most of my boyfriends took my hearing loss in stride, and they were all hearing.
