I grew up in a very dysfunctional family, I had 4 fathers(@ different times) with my birthfather leaving befor I was born.


I married twice. The second time produced 2 children. He's an alcouhlic. The relationship became verbaly and mentally abusive. The children and I went to a shelter, it took me 4 years to get a divorce. I have a very strong religous belief about marrage. During those 4 years I NEVER considered dating. 3 years have passed since then. I am waiting for my 16(youngest) to grad H/S.


Then I can spend time on that pursuit.


Why? Because my children had only one parent who stuck and I cannot work and support them while I tried to have another relationship. Why? I was there as a child. My mother thought that having a man in the house(@ whatever the cost) was important. My time is presious and I don't want to waste the time I could have with my children on a person who might not be there or worse yet, have a deep dark adjenda. If you need clarification, relationships take time and money, both of which I have little. My time with my children is short, they both will become adults shortly and fly the nest. I can wait.





As a parent, it sucks at times! I have no one to really share with, such as a spouse. There is a certain intamacy(not sex) and trust that one can rely on as a married partner, that I don't have. Hey burdns are easier on 2 than 1.


I can come up with a few okay single things, but in truth, I would rather be married.





P.S. apparently my spell check is not checking. Sorry
