[quote=Anonymous]So glad to have stumbled on this thread. I've been divorced for six months but was the one single mom at all the parties last year, and that season is starting up again. It's not exactly that I feel judged (though sometimes they say stupid things like how exhausted they are because their spouse is out for an evening), just that it's lonely because most people just talk to their spouses at those things.

Older friends keep telling me I'm just the front of the wave. That does seem to be coming true, as people are starting to reach out to me as their marriages falter.

I have one single mom friend. Like everybody has said, it's really hard for us to find time to get together, but we text frequently--that helps.

My relationship with my son has improved dramatically, and I love how he has grown into the role of helping around the house. He seems much more grounded and comfortable in his skin than his peers.

Now if I could just be less sensitive to the daddy worship...[/quote]
