Well, Im a single mother of a different type...the type I have yet to see on the boards (Ive been a lurker for a while now...)


My kids live with their father, and I have visitation, I see them often...


I just wanted to say that even though I dont have my kids 24-7, dating is STILL near impossible...and since I am pretty young, (28) most guys my age dont have kids, and/or they think that I am looking for a "father" for my kids, which couldnt

OLD is tough. Dating is tough. All you have to do is read the OLD boards and the dating boards here on IV - having a kid is one more little tick that makes you you - but it doesn't make dating that much harder. The thing is that guys are picky - and looks are what they are attracted to initially. But they also want a match - as we all do. So it just takes time to sort through a lot of people. I think we can all relate to your frustration. But try to have patience. Hanging out here helps of course!! Welcome!!
