Dating as a single mother

The last few women that I’ve met didn’t have children.Coupled with the idea of finding someone to love again, I know that the idea of attaching myself to a kid that isn’t mine is too much.It’s not a situation to be taken lightly because being in a position to shape a child’s life as a chosen, additional parent is an honor.There will be moments where you’ll have to play counselor and confidant. Sometimes, it can wear on a relationship when a child doesn’t feel free to express themselves.

In my situation, a lot of times, I felt like the dad who’d been there from day one.

No matter how much you love the child, it may always be different.

And at this point, I don’t want to be overwhelmed by someone else’s experience of fatherhood before mine gets a chance to really start.

You have to make the most of whatever time you do have.

There’s also the chance that you’ll be forced to interact with the dreaded ex.
