I’ve found it really hard to date let alone talk to men.. I just don’t feel the same connection I have with other guys than I do with my baby daddy.. I sometimes wonder if it’s bc I have a child with him. All my dating history I was able to move on from them but him I just can’t seem to move on or find a genuine connection like I did with him. A lot of men look at me like I’m pretty & have a nice body so they want sex or the guys that don’t look at me for my body I just can’t get a connection or even vibe with them. Any advice?

I’m going through the same!

Well first things first, we gotta know why you and baby daddy aren't together now?

He has a drinking problem while I was pregnant it was too much on me physically & mentally. He said he wanted a family & the commitment then when things started getting real the drinking was out of control. I grew up with both of my parents being addicts & I didn’t want my daughter around that even with her in my stomach. When he was drunk things would be taken out on me. I’m not saying I was innocent I did have pregnancy rage in my first trimester. I can be a lot to handle & deal with & I know that but he always says that’s the best part abt being with me. We’ve known each other since we were 16x

so hard currently like what is going on. Most of the time since I’ve become a mom a lot of the men give me the biggest ick

Going through the same thing it’s hard to find someone to match ur same energy and has the same ambitions and drive as I do male or female

also it’s hard when they don’t have children bc they don’t understand that our kids is our top priority or if they do have kids it’s baby momma drama. Sometimes I’m at a different point in my life than them same goes with my friends

I feel you!! My last man wouldn’t split his time between me and her equally and I could feel her presence all the time. Men need boundaries too!! They don’t have him.
