How am I ever going to meet someone else?

I’m feeling so low. My husband left us when DS was 2 weeks old, no contact, he’s now 8 months old. Christmas coming to an end has just brought up how completely lonely I am and how much I’d love to meet someone else. But I feel like I come with lots of caveats - I am a single mum, I have bipolar disorder (kept stable by medication to be fair), I’m not in the best shape - still got significant ‘baby weight’. I had a c section so even if I do manage to lose some weight I’ve got a big scar across my stomach.

I’m just so lacking in confidence and feel so alone, don’t know where to start. Would appreciate some advice/success stories.

Your baby is 8 months… what’s the rush? I’ve been single 7 years and have accepted I’m unlikely to meet anyone again as ex not involved so no days off. Kindly it’s only been 8 months there no rush.
