Scared i will be alone forever

[allgonebellyup]

Split from dh in april, he is with someone else now. i have a ds with him and a dd from my previous relationship.
im nearly 29 and just about realising that theres a good chance i will be on my own forever.

I do get blokes attracted to me when i go out, but they dont know i have kids. And i am so so fussy about the type of men i fancy, they have to be a certain type and v good looking, as well as kind and funny. i just know its never going to happen for me again, i truly dont believe i will find someone as sweet as my ex dh.
There just doesnt seem to be anyone about, even when im really busy and not even looking.
All i can see is years and years of loneliness stretching out before me..

Sorry that was full of self pity.

facebooks nicer because it's not a dating site You don't have to do a profile thing, it just brings up your face and you chat to people you can go further a field too.

There's also one called 'meet new people' as well.. a few others but I'm not sure what they are.

Used to go on facebook a lot but now it doesnt work on my pc!!

I used match.com - well I signed up cos my friend did but didnt pay.
got sent lots & lots of blokes but couldnt chat cos I didnt pay.

then accidentally found bloke I am with now. Been together for 18 mths & its great.

I was interested in him cos he had a child himself - if blokes have children, I felt I had a better chance of someone understanding what bringing up children is like. Plus my bloke had/has custody of his DD so he definitely was good parent material. This is obviously important to me.

you are certainly NOT on the shelf and one day when you're not looking, you may find someone.
