[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been divorced for 10 years and I've had sex twice in 10 yrs.  I enjoy sex but I have to have time for it.  With work, kids, and aging parents, I just haven't had time to date.  I'm not going to go out to bar on a Tuesday night and try and find some random guy to sleep with.  I work from home so no opportunity to meet someone at the office.  It's weird to think of sleeping with a dad from my kids school.

I never thought of it as a cause for a concern.  I just haven't had time. [/quote]

There's nothing wrong with your lifestyle or the choices you made. Kudos to you for taking care your family! You sound like a great woman.

That said, people make time for things that are really important to them. I'd assume sex with another person is not that important to you. [b]If I wanted to be with someone for whom  frequent, active sex was a priority, your lifestyle would be a red flag. [/b]If I was ok with having sex only when life was going well and there's not a whole lot going on, your relatively sexless past probably wouldn't bother me.[/quote]

Only a man could/would feel this way. The hoops a single mother would have to jump through to have sex are really major. You can only say this because you are likely never a person who would have to sideline your sex life because you have no time to meet someone while raising kids and caring for aging parents.

Conversely, the faux praise you give to the mother for taking care of her family....If a single mother is out there having a lot of sex and prioritizing her sex life, she would be called a bad mother, promiscuous etc. There is a reason that most of the deadbeats are dads and not moms. [/quote]

From what I can see, lots of horny single mothers have sex frequently and with little hoop jumping.  They just find people they like and hire babysitters or do it when their exes have the kids.[/quote]
