I've been single coming up for a year now. I was with someone for two years and it was just ridiculous and was never going to work (EA, never lived together, physical abuse). I was single for 3 years before that. My Ds is now 5 and I love him to pieces, he lights up my otherwise monotonous life. I've started back at work after 5 years which is great. A lot of people assume I won't have more children (ever) as I am single and DS is 5 so grown up obviously and I have had quite pitying looks and comments about the fact I "must be lonely". I constantly deny it, tell people I am more than happy to be single (which I usually am) and wouldn't be happier being in a relationship...yada...yada....
Problem is...I AM FUCKING LONELY! Once 7pm comes and ds is in bed I spend my life on MN reading about other people's lives, watching shite on tv, googling, knitting. I'm only 25 and truly feel like I've been written off. My ex was the first man I met/talked to/had any relationship with (apart from my friend's odd brother who thinks it's ok to message me for a shag when pissed - not gonna happen) since falling pregnant with my DS in 2007.
I don't feel woe is me, I can't explain it other than to say I genuinely feel like it won't ever happen for me.
I'm just whinging really aren't I? Seems to be getting to me more recently...hormones?
