Single moms face unique challenges in dating, primarily due to the potential emotional impact on their children. A Reddit user shared her experience navigating interest in new relationships while considering her children's perspectives. Despite initial acceptance, her 10-year-old later expressed strong opposition, preferring her mother remain single. This tension illustrates the emotional complexities involved when a parent seeks companionship against the backdrop of familial bonds, revealing a constant balancing act between self-fulfillment and children's well-being.
She's telling me I'm hiding things from her. She's screaming at me and gets extremely upset if I try to talk to her about wanting to move on with my life.
I have recently had to urge to date and get back out there so my kids can maybe see what it looks like for their mom to be loved.
