Have you tried meeting other women in the same position on the internet? I've met some really great women through the internet that I would never have met normally. None of them are weird,creepy or desperate...just have the same trouble meeting new friends. I'm a nanny so tend to meet only other nannies which gets boring,but my closest friends are accountants,interior designers,dancers...etc,all of whom I wouldn't have met if I hadn't been more proactive.
Try the gumtree,you can place an ad yourself,read through or even join one of the girls /friends groups that advertise on there.
Good Luck...go have some fun girl!

try joining a club that u have an interest in while your son is with his dad. Or maybe try just going out to a resturant to eat as a stepping stone to know what it feels like to be out of the house. or maybe even find a job that only lets you work those specific nights to give you some confidence to meeting people again. Good luck!!

When you say "go out" I am assuming you mean to clubs and bars. NOT a good place to meet a man. Just because your friends are in relationships doesn't mean they are dead. Don't they have get togethers, know other single people? Have you ever talked to your friends to see if they know anyone you may be interested in meeting. I think you are limiting your options of things to do and places to meet people. Don't you have other interests? Can't you find anything to involve yourself in other than going "out"?

Look around for a singles group or volunteer for an organization in your community that would bring you into contact with lots of people. This way you are helping others and placing yourself in a setting to make friends.

you could join a club or group of your interrest but thats no real help becuase your with people in the same situation as you , you need to get out put yourself in the public's eye and injoy your free time you get when your child is with your ex and in time you will meet others that intrest you , don't stay cooped up becuase it becomes a bad habit thats hard to change

if you ask your friends well in advance they may go out with you or arrange a girls night out and ask them all at once

why dont you call everyone at your place and apply your desires. that will prove to be an equal good oppurtunity to mix with people.
