never thought I would be.a single father.

I hear ya! Never dreamed I would be a single mom! Life happens tho. Hang in there....you got this!

Never thot dis way for u both... y u both dnt try dating each other?

yes life dose happen.everything happens for a reason.things are better off this way .thax for the support.

to be a single mom is very sad for me.

Are u going to remain single?

hopefully not.wef will see

If we knew we were going to be a single parent, would we have tried marriage? I do not think many people plan on being single parents.

I have been a single mom since 2006. Every year my kids get older and I think to myself, when my kids get this old I will be happily married. I just get stronger and persevere. Just focus this time on being the best dad. Your kid(s) need you!

Welcome to mingle2 I hope you find what you are looking for. My advice is to fill out your profile a little more, get involved in the forums/games, be yourself and have fun!

Hey man I feel your pain.

My mom was a single parent.

I have been a single parent for 15 years of 1 daughter.

I realized I was going to be a single parent when I informed my daughter's father that I was pregnant. We had both planned the pregnancy, but he just left one day and never looked back, not even a sorry.

Both myself and my daughter have been very happy because I would not allow either one of us to feel sorry for ourselves.

For years after she was born, I became very content with not having a significant other to share my life with but as she has grown older and more independent, well I have craved companionship and closeness so that is why I added my profile to mingle2.

Things will get better for you and your child/children so please keep your faith and incorporate it in every aspect of your lives.

Me too but its getting better. I just put a smile on for my boys and do the best I can. Hang in there!

hi...im a single mom too...i know its not easy to become a single parent,we didnt plan it,but its God's plan,maybe it happens for a reason.

.its definitely happened for a reason just like anything else.its not that bad compared to what it couldve been.makes us stronger as people and as parents.

thanks for the advice.all good suggestions. Im always myself so that won't be hard to do.I do need to pit more on my profile I never really did much with it.

i respect any man who steps up and takes care of their kids cause most men now a days dont

Hang in there you will do fine. And so will your kids. I am sorry for your early woes but you can settle into this and give your kids a good life if you set your mind to it.

I know for a fact you are not the only single dad's in your home town because have family there who are.

There is strength in numbers. Put a message in one of your free newspapers and have a Custodial Dad's gathering in one of their beautiful parks or meet at one of the school or hospital cafeteria's. You get a small group going they will probably give you a regular meeting room and help you spread the word.

Same goes for Custodial Moms or mixed groups. Good luck
