meet a man?

I have been single now for 5 years and not met anyone, I work in a mainly female environment with 1 single man in the whole team,!

I have looked at agencies but there is never anyone local as we live away from any large towns.

Help please!

Join a gym, or take a night class - just get out more!!

I know I should but easier said than done as a single parent, funds and babysitters are limited!

Other thought -when you meet someone how do you tell them you have kids? and if someone knows you have kids do they think you have a prtner/husband?(or is that just me?)

You just tell them. You can't get out one night a week?

I have been single for 3 years.
Tried Agencies but women I liked were not interesed in me and I was not interested in ones who liked me!

I have half accepted I'll probably be on my own forever.

Do any of the women at work know any single men?

Any mumsnetters in your area who might know someone?

namechange, i wouldnt be able to get out as single parent/finances crap so know where youre coming from.

when you go food shopping look at whats in single guys trolleys. you can usually tell by wot theyre buying as to whether theyre single, married or got kids! i do it just for a laugh and coz im bloody nosey. but if you spot a cute guy and his trolleys got no female or kids stuff in give him a smile Smile
