Feeling a bit alone

Newly divorced, 34 yoF with a 2 year old DD. So much of my life has been pieced back together and I feel much at ease now that the divorce is final and we are “settled.” I’m however, am coming to the realization this may be “it” for me. My single mom friends have never re-married. As much as I’d like to find someone, I desire more for my daughter to have a sibling. I loved being a baby mom, and we don’t have much family in the area- just my mom. I don’t know what single man would be interested in dating a single mom- I sure as heck would not if I were childless.
Just need to vent, I think, or need to commiserate with the internet. |

| There are men out there. But many may not be the risk of introducing to your child. Give it time and yes or sucks to have to mourn the vision for your family before a divorce. |

| If I may ask, why divorced with such a young child? |

| If you are willing to date a bit older, you may find someone before too long. An older man may want to finally settle down and have kids. If you find someone without kids, it could be easier to mesh your schedules. |

Very sorry to hear that. And sincerely hope that the right person comes along for you. Hugs to you. |

I guess. It’s been so long since I’ve dated that I don’t know what’s normal anymore. I do wonder why an older man, if a good man, would not have already settled down and have kids as well? |

| Honestly there are a lot of really good single men out there. Unfortunately the best way to find one is online dating so it may take some time to sift through to find the good ones. You will have no problem finding someone. Ignore the posters who consider you damaged goods with too much baggage. It’s obvious they have never been a single parent on the dating scene (I have, it’s not as bad as people make it out to be). |

| You got what you ask for, what you wanted... why do you have to vent? |

I just want to be clear that I don't view you as damaged goods with too much baggage. I see you as a loving mom who's been through heartache and wants to love again. You didn't deserve what happened to you. I hope you find love again--and believe that you will. It will take time and some patience. But it will be worth it. |

Not the OP. But what the hell are you talking about? Why be such an asshole? She is allowed to vent. You're a pathetic POS. |

I’m pretty sure that the OP didn’t ask to be cheated on and didn’t ask for her family to be ripped apart. She’s playing the hand she’s been dealt and it’s understandable that she’d feel lonely from time to time. She needs to know that she will find someone again when she’s ready. Lots of really great guys out there. |

| It seems like what you are looking for is a sibling for your child and not a new man. Have you thought about a sperm donor? |
