Anyone else sick of playing happy families without another grown up?

I'm bored out of my tiny mind. Sat at the dinner table talking about power rangers. Listening to them eat like a pair of waste disposal units. It's groundhog day unthanked.

What happens when you go on strike as a single mother?

I can relate to much of what's written here. But, am utterly amazed that so many of you single mums have managed to find boyfriends/dps. How have you done it? Let me in on your secrets!

yes I want to know too!! before my days as a single mum I had no problem getting boyfriends - God how things have changed, anytips would greatly be appreciated!!

I think maybe part of my problem is that i stopped seeing myself as sexual woman as if the old me simply didnt exist anymore. a large part of this was down to the fact i put on over 4 stone during my pregancy (because i was greedy and any excuse to eat more!!). i naively thought the weight would just drop off being a single mum - but not for me!!

It's bound to put people off if you have your children all the time rather than share care with an ex never mind the fact someone is put off that you have children at all. I do go out sometimes but it's a complicated process. I think it's worth putting some effort into it if you want to find someone.
