Anyone else feel invisible ?

I have been single for over 2 years. I’m finally ready to meet someone. I’m 30 and haven’t dated any men at all in the 2 years as I’m a single mother so not really been possible. But honestly I feel invisible. I’m never approached by men or spoken to, men never even give me a second look, without meaning to sound bigheaded I would consider myself attractive but maybe I’m not 😂 I’m with my children all the time so it could be that but according to my ex that wouldn’t stop a man if he was interested? Is this normal or do other people feel invisible as well?

I don’t know where to begin as it seems like old would be the only option but I’m not sure it’s for me and it seems really cringey (would hate to be recognised on there) how does everyone else meet people? Is it all online these days?

Most men would be wary of approaching a woman they just happen to come across. Do you go out with friends to places like pubs, you're more likely to get approached there. Also you could practice flirting, or looking approachable. I find that when I'm with my children, I'm focussed on them so would not think anyone would approach then.
Give OLD a go, everyone meets people in this way these days.

Thanks for
Your comment. No I never go out as child care was a problem. Online dating just feels so daunting, heard so many horror stories! It actually scared me lol
