 Alert | My wife and I can hang out with you. I have 2 boys, 10 and 6 but they're great with kids if you need a break. I'm 37 but my wife is 21 and LOVES kids so you'd have a great time. Heck, she'll even babysit on the weekends if you'd like. We have a new house that is toddler safe with plenty of toys and entertainment so feel free to message me if you'd be interested in some no pressure social time. We don't drink or smoke or anything like that either. We have a 65" inch TV so maybe we can have a family movie night and you girls can just break off into another part of the house to be girls.
I know it doesn't fit into the "single mom" thing you were looking for but surrounding yourself with people who want nothing and expect nothing from you is also a great healing method. I should know, my ex did the same as yours and she is a horrible mom. I'm good at healing and maybe helping you if you want it. My wife is a great listener too.
Ok, I've typed too much. Good luck. | | | |

You are 37 and she is 21, you are such a pimp.

i am a mom-to-be and blissfully not single. i am engaged to marry the most wonderful man in the world. i tell you this not to make you feel bad, but rather because this is husband #3 for me. the first 2 were total losers. a fact i recognised almost immediately after marrying each of them. if you ever want to talk about how joey has completely restored my faith in men, i'm here. there are some good ones out there, ya know.</div>
Nice of you to talk about how happy you are on someone's thread about how hurt they are. Also I am not surprised that for the millionth time you mention the baby. Do you not know any other topics to discuss? She is inquiring about single moms and you are neither a mom or single. Last but not least, what makes your opinion count on here. The fact that you have been married twice and doing it for a third time does not make you an expert on this topic, if anything I would not listen to a darn thing you say. You are an ex for a reason. | |

Alert | Thank you! Yeah I am really not looking to talk to any married women. I dont need advise. My marriage didnt end because of me it ended because he cant face the fact that he is getting older and needs to grow up. And also apparently the married with kids finally hit him and hes freaking out. So I really dont want to be around anyone that is "blissfully not single" right now. No offense but its not what I need. I have married friends. I am looking for single friends. The last thing I need is to hear and see is how great someone else's marriage is.

Yep, You maybe wanting to have a close friend to confide in who is going through a similiar situation. I know first had it is not an easy thing to go through. Reading your post above, sounds like you are dealing with a situation in your marriage close to what I dealt with. I really do hope you can find a good DC group to hang with. Our group became so close that we would have hangout nights and go bowling, or have game nights(rotating houses)<img src='http://www.85239.com/desktopmodules/ntforums/images/emoticons/wow.gif' height='20' width='20' border='0' title='Wow' align='absmiddle'> with plenty of good food and good times kids included in the game nights, regardless of their ages! A group like that might help you through some pretty rough times to pass and to come!<img src='http://www.85239.com/desktopmodules/ntforums/images/emoticons/wow.gif' height='20' width='20' border='0' title='Wow' align='absmiddle'> | |

I am new to Maricopa, well Arizona too. I am 21 and going through a divorce, yep fun fun. I have a 3 year old boy and a soon to be 2 year old girl. I am looking for other younger single moms who maybe want to get together for play dates or to go out for the evening. I am not much of a drinker and I dont really like to party. But if you are in the same boat that I am and would like to hang out then send me a message. Maybe we can talk about how we hate men and they are the root of all evil, Just kidding guys, just some of you are. </div>
Sounds like she needs a Luau to get her in a better mood... hmmm? | |

Alert | | She probably won't want to hang out with married couples so the Luau is out! Plus she has kids and it is not always easy to get a last minute sitter. | |

Alert | | Yeah you are right. Not really in the mood to hang out with married couples. About the sitter thing, I moved 5 streets down from my ex for that reason. He better freakin watch the kids every now and then for me. I am home all the time with them while he goes out! | | | |

Just out of curiosity...why would you write off hanging out with married couples so easily? | | | |

Alert | HELLO!! She is getting a divorce, why on earth would she want to be around other happily married people? That would be a giant putdown with her situation.

I believe I asked the original poster, not you. However, you asked a question, so I will answer it.
Why would she want to be around married people? Because friendly people come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and marital statuses. It just seems that writing off an entire segment of the population because of a single unfortunate circumstance like that is a bit of an overreaction. | | | |

Alert | Actually, I can understand. She's looking for someone who can understand where she is coming from. She said she has married friends. They definitely cannot understand what its like to be a single mom. Good luck JonAndAshly (but us married girls are kinda cool, and we do all go dancing once in awhile- girls nite out!) | |
