I really enjoy being single for all of the reason mentioned,"I said it! It’s all nice and everything to make my own money, have my own place, and have the exclusive say about what happens to my kids, but it’s just not fun…. at all!" I think single mothers where the banner high because some are so ready to shot it down by saying things like,"Oh so you are a single mom" I like compansion like the next person but really value managing things with little input. I guess I am not really ready to share my life with someone and like the idea of focusing on my career. Single reason is because I feel more comfortable relying on my future by what I have provided for myself. Other than hoping they will do it for me. It is a security thing for me and it trumps compansionship at this time. Not sure I totally agree with this. I really enjoy being single for all of the reason mentioned,”I said it!

Sometimes we scare those guys off because we act to independent. We really do need them. We just don't want to admit it sometimes! Amen ladies!!

I have been in a "relationship" since the tender age of 15. I'm not saying I've been with the same person, of course not. What I'm saying is, I have not been "single" almost never. After separating from my kids' father in 2000, I have found myself in a relationship every year. Even when I try to take a break and really live a single life, it doesn't last long at all, because simply put, I don't want to be alone. I'm not saying that I couldn't be alone, I'm saying I prefer to be with someone because I am a lover and need to be loved. Does that make any sense? Anyway, I just wanted to co-sign with you.

First for admitting to yourself that you want to be in a relationship. Second, for realizing and recognizing where you are in your journey. I've been in a relationship and didn't want anyone to know because I thought that I would be less respected as an authority on single parenting matters. Yet, I'm happy, the kids are happy and we totally walked into love! So, I think that single moms wear the banner too high and too long and sometimes allow love to pass us by. We deserve him and he deserves us. Why? Because we rock! CONGRATULATIONS! First for admitting to yourself that you want to be in a relationship.
