[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know if I can find it, but I read an article that basically discussed if parents of a kid(s) broke up because of divorce, the parents went out and tried to find mates right away, but if the reason that the parents found themselves single was death (widow or widowhood), the need to date was very much more limited. It's as if you feel rejected by a mate, you need to prove you are desirable - so even if you have a kid from the mating to protect, you spend a lot of time trying to find a new mate ... , but if your first mate dies in a car wreck or of cancer or such ... and leaves you with a kid to protect ... well in that case, you hunker down and protect the kid and don't worry so much about whether you have personal fulfillment with your new mate. I don't know your story, but might I suggest that you try to model your life on the latter while you have your child.... if you find a great guy in the mean time, who loves your child as much as you, so much the better. But you won't need to worry about whether and when to talk about your kid. [/quote] Interesting. Makes sense. [/quote] I don't follow advice from Cosmo. Most humans crave intimacy and human interaction, and lots of divorced folks haven't had that in their marriages for a while. Maybe some people date to prove something but probably not the majority.[/quote]
