My mom realization of the day.....

or either its one helluva pity party for myself..... badAs I'm sitting behind my desk at work that is drowning in paperwork, I realized that I have no life for me (is this sounding selfish?). Having been in school since 2007, working two jobs, taking care of the kid and the animals, there is no time for a life for me! Kid, work, kid, homework, and repeat!

Even if I attempted to date, it would be a futile attempt. I miss adult conversation and there is only so much I can talk to the family pets about-and the one guy who is interested in me only wants a F! buddy and I can't do that!

I know we as single moms have our low moments......but has anyone every felt this way? I'm not seriously depressed, but just rather blue....

Girl I feel you on this. The thing is with dating are the men worth the headache they bring with them most of the time? You do need to find time for yourself even if it's locking yourself in the bathroom after the kids go to sleep & taking a long hot bath with music & candles, just to decompress & relax.

You'll find a good man maybe it's better to not be involved in anything, at the moment cause of your busy schedule, you'll probably have more time when you're schedule cools down...... Have faith I found a good man being a single mom

I know the feeling.  I've been lonely for quite a while - nearly 5 years.  The four years before the 5th year I was even married!  My ex decided to chase after his bimbo (a co-worker) instead of actually working on his manhood and our marriage.  I'm SO ready to move on with my life, but so far have to put up with working full-time, a dog that keeps me company and on occasion spend time with the few friends that I have.  I know my day will come when Mr. Right will be standing right in front of me, but until then, I, too feel your pain!
