Lonely...sort of...?

Do your kids have visitation? Do you anyone who can take them off your hands every now and again? I'm in the same boat. I worked around my kids until I was ready for him to meet them some months down the road. I do have the benefit of visitation, though. Maybe you could find another single mom to swap overnight babysitting with, everyone needs a break sometimes. Being a single mom is tough and lonely, I know. Good luck.

I am not a mother (yet), but I had had a lot of trouble meeting people after my divorce. I'm not very social, and most of my friends are older and married, I just don't hang out with the "single" crowd. I did online dating for four years, and this is how I met my current husband. We've been together for 2 years, married for 4 months. He is the same way - kind of solitary and anti-social, so online was the ONLY place we could have met! We're very happy. I would recommend Yahoo personals or Match.com.

If it is not a big deal for you right now, since you said sort of. Wait until the little ones get a little bit older. Since children is a big challenge for a new relationship that can be both good and bad. Take this time to know what you are looking for in a relationship. Take this time to also know your boundaries, what you will allow and what you will not allow. You want to find a really good relationship that will last. It is soo much out there that you don't want. Be careful, be wise and do not settle out of loneliness. You will find that special someone. But when you are ready, you would want to surround yourself in the environment of people you want to meet.

Try finding someone online! That's how I met my husband. Do a search at Yahoo Personals for guys in your area. You can chat with them online through instant messanger from home. It's a start anyways.

Lots of divorced dads have their kids on the weekends. You can usually find them at local parks, McDonald's, etc. So maybe take your kids to some of those places on the weekends and find a guy to strike up a conversation with.

Good luck!

What you need is someone to help relieve the stress (hint, hint) you are feeling...not anything long term. Trying to build a relationship right now will cause you aggravation and added stress. You already feel overwhelmed with everything going on, what do you think a new relationship will cause?

I know what you mean robyn,except not male companionship you just gotta keep the faith ...there is some one out there that is gonna flip for both you and your boys and thats a fact just remember to keep your eyes open cause you never know where they will turn up,good luck and God bless ya sweetie!

Find a good babysitter , idealy someone in the same situation as you who also needs a babysitter that you can trade off withand neither of you have to dish out the ccash. pluss youre kids will have regular playfriends.
