I am a teacher and I don't work with hardly any males, so work is out of the question. My son rarely sees his father, so he is always with me. I am just finding it really hard to meet anyone!

Thank you for all of the quick responses! I realize I need to get off the computer, BUT the problem is I don't know where to go! I am just too picky I guess. LOL :) I am a lost cause....

hi im 24, and i respect the responsibilities you have. you're a mother! while im still working my way up. 3 thumbs up! Online dating sucks.
Rule number 1. write down a list of things you want to do in your life. List them all, your goals aspirations and then slowly cross each of them whenever you've done it.
You will find someone along the way while at the same time sharing the same passion and interest.
my 2 cents...

I say take her. Because you even are asking this question about whether or not you should take her money must not be a huge issue and although it sucks to be the one to pay for everything you'll get the benefit to see her really happy. Look, I'm a student too and I don't work either. I live with my boyfriend who pays rent during the semester. However, I get many grants and scholarships through financial aid and after tuition is paid I get a good chunk back so I pay him for an average of my part of the lights, water, and rent in full at the beginning of the semester. Maybe you should sit down and talk with her about going and seeing for a financial aid officer because if she's not working she should definitely qualify and there's plenty of money out there for students. That would possibly help that situation. If she does qualify then maybe you could talk to her about reimbursing you for the trip (at worst she could get a student loan which sucks to have to do but that would be an amazing experience for her). I wouldn't necessarily have her pay for the full cost of the trip though because that's a pretty price tag for a student. Also, my boyfriend and I went to Romania and I was not working at the time and had no money saved. We went in December and in January I got back 4,000 from financial aid so I gave him 3,000 of it for rent from January to May (my portion of rent is only 125.00 because total rent is 500.00 with two bedrooms and we have a roommate. 250.00 per bedroom and me and my bf split a bedroom) and the rest went to the trip. We try to keep things in flux. I share with you and you share with me later.

At 25, don't preoccupy your time worrying about finding a man. You are way too young, someone will come along. Worry about protecting your children from our dangerous society and all the perverted men out there that can harm them. I strongly encourage you to keep your "dates" away from your kids, whatever you do, I have heard lots of horror stories about men who date single mothers.
If you wanna get laid or date casually, I'd say go to Happy Hour with your girlfriends and you will find somebody eventually.

try setting aside a few hours on the weekend or the weekday, whichever works best for you, get someone to watch your child/children and take a class that you are interested in.. if you can't afford to take a class try volunteering for an organization that you support. that way you are more likely to meet people who share your interest. best of luck

Contrary to popular beliefe.. guys arent really interested in girls with kids already.. so thats gonna be difficult for you.. (seriously i'm not trying to dis you here its just a fact)
I wont even date women with kids at home even on a causual date..... does that make me a bad person?? Maybe.. but I'm not daddy material... nor do i want to be..

Your first priority at this time is to be a good parent. It is best to make friends, both male and female. You will someday meet a nice guy. Good luck.

Get off the computer and get out there, I'm sure you are a nice looking woman, but you have to get out and mingle around, men are not going to coming knocking at your door.
