Hold The Phone
Hi Susan.
Before we talk on the phone, I wanted to make sure you’ve read my entire profile on match.com. In it, I mention that I’m vision impaired and describe the nature of that limitation. I have a fair amount of sight — I read print, am a computer expert with twenty years experience in software engineering, and love watching movies and the stars on a moon-free, clear night. So I am by no means blind.
However, I cannot drive a vehicle, and thus, would never be able to chauffeur you around. You’d need to do the driving if we end up going places that don’t have public transportation.
If this doesn’t bother you, then yes, I’d love to chat further. But If it does, please know that I fully understand and don’t blame you. It bothers many, so you would not be alone.
It takes a slightly more giving person than is normal to enjoy a relationship with someone handicapped, and I’d never judge anyone negatively if they decided they weren’t “big enough” to take on that challenge. If my weak eyesight troubles you, I’ll gladly leave you alone, without grudges. But I hope you don’t mind it though. 
Let me know,
Tom Hesley
