New poster here. Just looking for some insight from other single parents. I don't have many mum friends so I can't ask anyone!
Little backstory:
I have known this man for a very long time. I dated this guy back when I was 16 (30 now) Life goes on, we stay in touch. He has a kid and we’re friendly.
I separated from my husband and he separated from his partner. I let him know not long ago that I have always thought he was attractive and I just wanted to tell him.
We caught up via text and He told me that he’s going through some trouble with his long distance girlfriend to the point of going to therapy, so I supported it as I should and said it will be fine.
He just asked me if I want to have a play date with the kids, do I think they’ll get along - let’s do it next weekend. Usually I'm the one asking people for play dates so it's refreshing to be asked and he was very much "this is when we're doing it". I find him super attractive 😂
I haven't seen this guy in about a year. I know for a fact that he has plenty of friends that have kids for play dates. Am I looking too far into it? My sense is that he wants to see how our kids get along and what kind of mother I am to my own kids/how I interact with his son before he takes it further.
