I'm not sure about going to bars or clubs because I'm half deaf and it's really hard to hear in loud places like that. I've also had the problem of guys not believing me, about my disability. I've been called a liar and some have wondered if I'm 'slow'. I'm tired of being lonely but I'm not sure what to do.

 deafness is one of the least understood disabilities, as there are no signs of it.
i have been deaf for most of my adult life, following a misfire when i was in the army.
i have a lapel badge now and when i tell people i show them my badge, it is a hand cupped to an ear.
it shows those unbelievers that you really are deaf.
it has also been useful when talking to women as they often come up to me and ask what the badge is lol.
