How do I date?!

4 replies

ScouseBird8364 · 11/05/2017 19:58

After being in a marriage for 10 years, 3 kids later (9, 6 & 2), I'm rusty, so-to-speak!

Anyway, how do you fellow single momma's date?? Seriously...

I've met a guy (from my Slimming World group), we've been chatting on Facebook past few nights and are eager to meet for coffee.

Thing is, without having childcare of an evening, how the heck do we date? Confused

I get a gut feeling I could really mesh with this guy, but literally THE only time I would be alone is for 3 hours of a morning, at which time he is in work etc Sad

Would it be so wrong to invite him to my place late of an evening when kids are in bed??

Any advice from those of you guys who have been in same situation would really help. I'm worried this guy may slip through my hands because of my situation SadSad

Who looks after DCs while you're at slimming world - could they stay on an extra hour while you and he go for a drink?

You need to date properly!!
Dressed up / hair done etc.

And out of the house or it's just a night in!!

Would you guys let him back to your own place for coffee though? Hmm

He's not actually in my same SW group - he goes on a different day, but same consultant, so we got speaking through our SW Facebook group!!

If you know him well enough then yes invite him over when the DC are in bed. That's what I did after a few dates with DP. Could you find a babysitter and go out though? Much more fun!
