The only problem I have with women who already have kids Kate is that it seems like most of them come with drama, not that I wouldn't go through drama for the right person. Nobody puts the drama on their profile though LOL

i've had drama just recently but i honestly hope it's over..it's not with me it's with my ex..he is the one that's causing all of it

Heck... you're still young. Had my youngest at 37, he's 22 now and beleive me we still do a lot of things together.

but do you feel like you cheated them out of anything with your age?

lol I can see that and now that I think about it. If anything I tell you right now it might come out wrong. Work does tend to catch up to me but I find myself spending time with my nephew and by doing some of the things he likes to do. I see the kid in me. Hell I always been a big kid and knowing that and looking at my age. I don't feel my age. I know it's kinda of a late start but it's something I haven't experience and i'm thinking to myself. Yes i'm 37 but way pass something up that is a wonderful experience that hasn't happen for me

I'll give you one of mine!!

I wish you all the luck in the world shadow. With that attitude going in you can't go wrong. Make sure you post a pic of the wedding

you mean the kids or my ex? my ex no...i got tired of his BS and i feel like i'm cheating my kids out a real family. They haven't had a real man figure in their lives. i have been mom and dad to my 2 oldest

That is usually where the drama comes from Kate.

True but I refuse to date anyone who will pull all the rules that i layed down so they can make up their rules for MY kids. If I am with someone we will agree or it won't be done. At the moment i'm wondering if my boys are better off if i don't date

I grew up with just my mother too. I can honestly say, I missed a father figure but I feel proud of my mom for everything she did

how old are they?

That's awesome. I know it's rough for me since i'm doing everything on my own for my boys and I feel good about it even though there's times i struggle. One day my boys will appreciate everything I do for them and when they do that will put a smile on my face

10,11, and 13...10 year old i'm hoping might be living with me for good within the month

If that's what you want, then by all means go for it. Forget about what anyone else may think. Just do your future family a favor and stay healthy!

i'm doing everything i can KW..that's why i've had tests run, surgery and now ewww..a colonoscopy in 2 weeks

you can start another family sure - it'll be *different* but what isn't in life?

that's true s1owhand

Good...

It all depends on how you feel. To me raising a family takes alot of patience. At 49 I'm glad my children are grown. Now I can start enjoying my life without having to worry that they NEED me for every little thing. I've raised my sons to be independant. So now I can breathe. Just my 2 cents worth....

yuck there is something to look forward to
