Give me hope for the future please!! Ex left on Wednesday after telling me he hasn't loved me for a long time but hasn't had the balls to say it. DS is 16 months old and is doing a decent job of keeping me busy.

So please tell me your stories of finding love as a single mum! I'm too young to be forever alone (coming up 29)

Met someone at 31. Tinder. I'm 35 now and we live together (I literally thought I'd never live with someone again). I still have grief about my fantasy nuclear family - but I'm so glad it all fell apart. We are deliriously happy together

You're going to be fine xx

I was a single mum to 3 kids for 8 years, had no interest in a relationship was really anti men. Then at 28 I met my dp and we've been together nearly 10 years and we've gone on to have 2 kids together. There's hope op things will be fine. Focus on you and your child and everything will fall into place.

Yes. Not me, but a friend with 3x kids found love a couple of years back and they had a baby of their own together not too long ago. She is absolutely smitten, as is he.
