Hello
I;ve been lurking for a while.....
I am a single mum to DS who is 2. I left DS's dad as he was behaving like a complete tosser and I just could not continue to live with him for my sake and for DS's.
Literaly ALL my friends are married, and I feel so lonely and isolated as if I have nothing in common with them anymore.
It feels like everyone else is in a happy bubble and I am outside looking in. I owuld love to meet someone else and have a "proper family". I always wanted to get married and have a big family and yet here I am 34 and single, when it feels that everyone else is married and pregnant.
It is difficult being happy when friends are pregnant again when I long to be, but can't see it happening. I got a text from a friend asking to borrow my pregnancy books and that actually made me feel really sad. I know it is silly - I don;t need them, but it just got me as it reminded me that I would like to be the pregnant one right now and I am not and can;t see it happening!
I would like to make some other single mum friends who can understand what it is like!
