Moving on

i was going to wait forever and just give up with dating and men entirely 🤣 but naturally after 7 months i met someone, it’s not a solid relationship but it could get there and i’m even just proud of myself for even opening myself up to getting to know someone in that capacity. don’t rush things and do what feels right for you, if you have healed from your last relationship then try going on a few dates or maybe even try a dating app

love that for you! Hopefully it works out for you ☺️ I planned to give him time to change and see if we could work at something but haven’t seen any effort as of yet! I think my only chances are dating apps as I never go out but also have no personality right now, my whole life is just my daughter 😂😂

you’re so right! Everyone’s so different, good to hear people’s experiences☺️ I felt like I grieved our relationship before I left in the end so haven’t been so upset as I had no tears left to cry but I do still miss the old times! Feeling like a single mum in a relationship is hard! Happy to be out of it now but hoping to find happiness (in a romantic way) again in the near future!

I was in my previous relationship for 7 years & during that time had my son. I put my son first and moved out of that relationship after trying to save it for a long long time. Since I fell pregnant with my son I was kicked out of his family and looked down upon. My partner wouldn’t spend time with me and I found out he was seeing other people and he would say disrespectful things to my family who were nothing but supportive. My poor son had to listen to him raising his voice at me followed with “I don’t care he doesn’t understand” when I told him to stop.
I told myself I wouldn’t step foot near another man until my current partner came along and he’s been an absolute godsend. I’ve been told multiple times I’ve moved on too fast but he’s stepped up and been the best father figure to my little boy and I’m now currently pregnant with another LO! Just trust your instincts! There’s never a perfect time you just have to go with the flow! Xx

Question for you single mamas back into dating (it’s too fresh for me to think about yet but keen to know), is it better to find someone who’s also got children and has been previously in a marriage or long relationship… or does that have no bearing on it? I always wonder whether someone that doesn’t already have children get me and where I’m at.
