Here is the thing...age isn't just a number it is a quantifying series of decades that have accumulated experiences (or lack there of) and people who cannot exactly share those same experiences shouldn't try to. Why? Maturity and growth count for something. I am in an awkward place in my life where I am 42 and look 28. NO it isn't a good thing!!!! Too many young, young who haven't even enough hair to shave daily want to date me OR grandfather time who is looking to have is pathetic little ego stroked by the younger woman. I just don't feel good about it and I see my life and realize that as a mom it isn't just me. Dating as a single mom is ALWAYS AND SHOULD always take kids into consideration. I can never involve myself with someone who couldn't deal with my sons...friendships are all I feel able to invest in and men do not seem capable of doing that. They pretend (as I have been there many, many times) in hopes I will change my mind...it just isn't that simple.
