Selfish?!

[PumpkinsandKittens]

I’m a single parent, I’ve been on my own for 5 years now, for certain reasons I am unable to date so I’ve been on my own completely in that time, today I was reading a post on another group where someone was asking if it’s selfish not to date when you have children as it’s not giving them the opportunity to have a proper normal family life and not allowing anyone else into their lives?! I always through it was the opposite of selfish but now it’s bugged me that I’m not giving my children the opportunity to have a “proper” family? I’ve never heard anyone say this before, is it selfish?

Hell no.

I swear if I broke up with DH I'd never date again.

What kind of idiot says women should invite other people into their lives and beds 'for the sake of the children'?? 😡

I agree with @Mumoblue

Its just another way to tell women that they’re in the wrong.

Men, of course, can do whatever the fuck they like and are considered heroes if they make the slightest effort with their own or other people’s kids.
