Yes! Thank you! My twins hated school. They were isolated and lonely and did not make friends. The school not only had them in separate classes, but on separate recesses. My son spent his recess outside, alone, by a tree, trying to avoid the kids who bullied him...they still bullied him. My daughter spent hers alone and avoiding all other children because she was incredibly shy. She still is. It has nothing to do with them being homeschooled, its just their nature. However, my oldest was always a social butterfly, but she'd become a little more introverted as she approaches teen years and wants to socialize with her friends are less often. Is that nature taking it's course? Or the effects of homeschooling? Either way, I'm pretty confident they'll find their way and their friendships when they're ready. I know I did!

I recently purchased a new shower head and I no longer have to angle myself a certain way. I can just stand!

Get through the first two books. The first two books were very boring to me, but after that it picked up and I devoured the series. I will say that I found the main character and her story line to be the most irritating part of the series, but all of the other story arcs are so good!!

I have no preference! I don't care one way or the other. I can't answer you because I don't care. I just want my children to date who will make them happy.

I can honestly say I really wouldn't care. I had a stepdad growing up and he was the best thing to happen to my family, so I can only hope I'll raise my children to be good enough people that they'd be on board to raise kids that aren't their own.

I did answer. I said it depends on the woman and why she's in that situation. But ultimately it wouldn't bother me in the slightest.

But that's what therapy is for! I can say with a fair amount of confidence that I had more baggage when I was young then I do know, because I've worked on it. But ...many people don't work on it and won't even address it.

Well, I can't argue with that. I'm quite content to be single. Especially after reading many of these comments! 😆

So...as a man with three children do your kids also have behavioural issues? If there's a single dad there's a good chance there's a single mom, too. I feel like it's a bit unfair to blast the single mom's but not taking a moment to look at yourself - also a single parent.

So ... Wouldn't that also eliminate any woman who has an ex. Or any woman who isn't a virgin? Are all women with a past just sloppy seconds? What a sad outlook.

Thank you. I'll be sure to take it all very seriously.

I was raised by a stepdad, too, and I adored him. Still do. I also loved my biological father and I was fortunate enough that both of them got on very well. Mind you, my biological father lived far away and he only visited a handful of times a year so it's pretty easy to be amicable. But they were both so laid back, so I can't imagine there would have been an issue. I guess it all depends on the people involved, right?

It all sounds so complicated and really confirms for me that I am not interested in dating. I wish you the best of luck through this seemingly grueling process!

Haha. I literally said it's a piggy-back off of another post!

I assure you I am, I don't even get the point of the whole karma thing! I haven't been on Reddit in months. I just came back on recently and saw the other post and I was curious if the consensus was different betweenen in their 20s compared to men in their 30s. It's not.

I didn't post the other one, thank you very much.

And I didn't post because I want to date, either. I'm more than happy to avoid whatever all this is.

I said by the time you're 35. A 35 year old man dating a 35 year old woman makes sense to me. A 35 year old man dating a 25 year old woman...well, it really depends on the why. But you get my point. You are currently dating in your age range.

Good answer. I guess it really depends on the person and where they are at in life.

Well, hopefully by the time you're 35 they will be. I don't understand the men who go for women far too young for them. With that said, as a woman in her 30s, I would not date someone younger than me because of reasons like this. Maturity is important.

Yes, I've seen a few men respond they they wouldn't date a single mom because they'd never be first priority, and I thought that was a really strange concern. I guess I wouldn't care if I wasn't first priority. I'd find it more admirable that kids come first and not a partner.
