paperboy48 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Being a single parent (even if only part-time) and a homeowner is a lot of work. Do you ever feel there is not enough time to date? How do you handle this? Just curious if I am alone with this.... Link to comment
metrogirl Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 I was a single parent and dated. I don't what owning a home has to do with it though. If you want to date, get out there and date. Link to comment
laninaperdida Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Owning a home, renting a home, sub letting a home... They all require work, work, work. I don't see how that would *really* affect dating other than you don't get as much sleep as the next person who doesn't have these thing to juggle. Ever considered renting to someone else who has a kid? Could be a nice little cohabitation of convenience... Link to comment
metrogirl Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Wait......so you are looking to date someone new? The previous girlfriend from a few weeks ago is out? Link to comment
paperboy48 Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 I just meant - if you own a home, rather then rent an apartment or something - there is a lot to do for one person to do with owning a home such as (mowing the grass, cleaning, upkeeps, fixing things that need repairs, etc). Plus, in additon to all of that - play with the kids when I have them, take care of them when I have them, help them with homework, give them baths, go to their school functions, go to their sports. Don't get me wrong - I love having my children and I'd rather have them then be with a significant other, if I had to make a choice. Its just a lot to juggle. Wait......so you are looking to date someone new? The previous girlfriend from a few weeks ago is out? Yes, I broke up with her I miss her and hope she is okay. She just wasn't the right person for me Link to comment
metrogirl Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Well I dated and raised 4 kids by myself. I dont think your grass needs to be mowed everyday so maybe you can just mow it early on a Saturday morning and proceed with a date later in the day or something like that. I think you want to make it seem harder than what it really is. Link to comment
SeattleSigh Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Kudos to you all. I am a single male, and I rent, but I still don't feel there's time to work, live a healthy life and date. Link to comment
