I'm not sure why you would feel bad for dating as a single mother.... you have a right to a life, just make sure that your child or children come first. Word of caution: don't bring anyone home to meet your family until you are VERY sure of their good character. Your kids should not have to suffer through each relationship, and remember that each loss will be theirs, too. Also, you will be setting an example. A continuous stream of random guys is not what you want to expose them to....Remember that you are an adult woman who deserves to find love and happiness, so don't settle! Good luck!

Be careful who you bring around your child. Never do it right away- just see how you and the person are together first, see if you two will be a couple and if it will last.
Then you decide if this person is worthy of being around your children.
In the news lately, there has been a string of deaths and abuse of children by their mommy's boyfriends/husbands- not their fathers. Be careful!

As long as you dont mix the guys you date into your home life unless it becomes serious there is no reason for you not to continue enjoying life yourself. Just dont expose your kids to too many different men it may have adverse results.

You have to understand you are still a person, not just a mother. You have to take time for yourself. I think it is programmed into a
woman to feel guilty. good luck

You don't want to neglect the child (children) but you do need to have time to yourself. You don't want to mix the kid(s) up with the guys until you know this is serious.
