Does anyone else have this? I’m a single mum to 4, under the age of 10. I have been single for over 3 years and haven’t dated or met anyone at all in that time. Obviously being a single mum to 4 I’m very busy. My ex also doesn’t see the children so they don’t go to their dads house. On top of that I have no help with them from my own family so I bring them up alone and the only break is school, however I’m still home with the youngest whose just turned 3 last week.
Anyway people seem obsessed with the fact I haven’t met anyone, I get constant comments about it. And people seem to feel sorry for me. My ex use to take it as meaning I “hadn’t moved on” and I remember him once saying “it’s ok to meet someone you know” like I was waiting for his permission or something 
even family try to encourage me to meet someone. But none of them seem to understand that it’s completely impossible to meet someone when I’m with my children all the time. They see it as an excuse. I would never bring someone over to my house when my children are here unless I got to know them well beforehand. Does anyone else get people telling them they need to meet someone? And I never mention it to anyone so it’s not a case of me saying I want to meet someone it just seems to get brought up randomly.
