I saw the recent thread on here about finding a wife and thought I'd ask for advice as well. 

I'm a young man and a convert to the Faith. I'm unable to drive due to very poor eyesight and have issues with stress due to cruelty from my family over my conversion.(they aren't noticeable as I take a medication which is very helpfrul for stress) 
 
I'm nearly done with university and will either attend law school or work as a paralegal after graduation(law school would net me a higher income if I can get a JD but that also involves a lot of debt)

I've tried CatholicMatch but have pretty much given up on that. (I'd send messages to different types of people on there who at minimum accept the teachings of the Church- people who attend the Latin Mass and even Novus Ordo types- I broadly agree with the position of the Resistance but have no Resistance chapel in my area) At times I've gone to the FSSP but there are very few single women at the parish where I live(I don't endorse the Fraternity's pluralism but as I said, no other TLM where I am) When it comes to CatholicMatch, most girls simply don't respond to messages, and the ones that do don't want to talk to me for a number of reasons

1. Most of the women my age say they aren't interested in someone who can't drive/is legally blind
2. Older women who say I'm too young for them (Im in  my mid 20s but due to lack of responses I've reached out to women who are older, even women in their late 30s) 


As I said, I'm a convert to the Faith ( my family is of a cultural background where arranged marriages are common and my parents constantly  tell me that I need to leave the Faith and return to the false religion I was brought up in if I want to get married. I have considered religious life seriously but that doesn't seem to be an option due to my eyesight and stress issue. 

I've gone one a single date with one Trad girl (who I met on CatholicMatch) who ended up telling me that she didn't want a second date because "while we share very similar political and religious views, we don't have a lot in common"(her words) 

I'm not in a rush to get married but this is disheartening. Am I stuck between staying single forever or marrying a non-Catholic? I'd appreciate any advice or thoughts. Part of me wonders if I should attend law school to make a higher income so I can have a better chance at marriage, but a priest i trust told me not to go for gold diggers and girls who are mainly concerned with money.

Please say some prayers for me.

I'm not sure how to sugar coat this, and surely others will disagree, but I don't see the point of risking having children who inherit your blindness to a greater or lesser extent. That would make life harder on them and the whole family. Remaining single may help you to serve the Traditional Catholic community all the more with your lawyer skills.

I always try to remember the CathInfo members in my prayers and at Mass, especially those who have asked for prayers.

Stress is everywhere these days. It seems to me that the only real serious problem you have is poor eyesight. Is it a degenerative thing? Will it get worse as you age? Even if you go completely blind, I don't think that it would prevent you from raising a family. It seems to me that your situation is no worse than every other Trad young man.

If you end up making good money, it will be easier to deal with the eyesight problem and also with the no driving issue. I mean, not necessarily gold diggers, but if women see that you are able to support a family and to spend money to lessen the burden of your (relatively small) issues, and have the virtues, they will be attracted to you as a potential husband.

Plus, slightly older men will usually be more attractive to young women. In your 20s you better study and get the money flowing.

Just my opinion.

My eyesight will not get worse and the viusal impairment I have was due to premature birth. It's not inheritable
