Dear Akhilesh,

As far as cheating is concern it depends on individual person.It depends on 
individual's morality & values.
 A person whose instinct is to cheat he/she can cheat, no matter there 
partner is abled or disabled.
Agreed that in case of abled partner they have little opportunities  as 
compare to disabled partner.
Although disability is nothing to do with it (cheating) yet disability makes it 
is easy for others to cheat.

I was fully sighted when I married at 26 years. I lost my sight in an accident 
when I was 28.
I have never faced any problem with my sighted partner after loosing my sight. 
For us it is just a colour of life,
we both shared the rainbow, now it is time to share the dark.

Best Regards,
Lalit Yadav

Hello Ravindra,



I think Rajesh sir asked this question in reply of comments made by mr. Bhavani.



I hold the similar views as mr. Bhavani as far as cheating is concern.



We have neither the suitable agency nor the financial budgets to

conduct such research work.



Whatever he or I have experienced and said, it is based on our day to

day life, and in the society we live.



In one of my previous mail I also pointed the instances where cheating

might have not taken place or not exists at all. But these are only

exceptions and should not be taken as a guiding points.



Good to here that you fall in the exceptional category as far as

cheating is concern.



Wishing to you a very enjoying and happy married life for many decades to come.



With regards,

Akhilesh Kumar Dahiya,

Advocate.
