Single mum to 2 children with sn's, youngest dc is hard work at the moment, eldest is not as bad but can be hard at times. I don't want to be on my own forever but I just can't imagine introducing someone to my dc's, who would want to take us on?
I also can imagine going through the whole ' introduction to each other's family' either, introducing them to my parents ( because no one is ever going to be good enough ).
I'm so scared of getting involved with someone and then them running a mile when they see what my life ( with my dc's ) is like, my life is stressful, there are times when it's rewarding but I can't see another man ever seeing it like that, I wouldn't want in on my life if I was the bloke, no one in their right mind would chose my life
