For a long time, the idea of a single mother dating somebody was frowned upon. Considered ‘˜characterless’ even. But in this day and age, nobody really thinks of it as ‘˜against the morals’.
For a long time, the idea of a single mother dating somebody was frowned upon. Considered ‘characterless’ even. But in this day and age, nobody really thinks of it as ‘against the morals’.
In fact, even elders seem to encourage their daughters to go out and find love. And guess what, dating a single mom is rather exciting! We give you five such reasons…read on.
Experienced in every department:
Not just in bed (we know what you’re thinking!), but also in handling heartbreaks, petty issues, fights, arguments and personal and professional crises. She will most certainly be experienced in anything life has to throw her way. Wouldn’t you want a partner who can take on the world without even flinching?
Mature and practical:
She has seen every possible rejection, heartbreak and joy. She Knows what to do in life, is mature, smart and practical. A child brings responsibility, so she obviously knows how to take care of stuff. In short, she is sorted and organized, despite the fun element. This is a trait that you’ll never find in young girls.
Won’t go crying to her girls:
She has seen worse. Hell, she has seen her marriage break up. And she has to care for a child on her own. So your little drama and tantrums will not send her rushing to her gang of girls. You won’t have to worry about PMSing issues, her drama queen-esque behaviour and constant girly fixations. You’re with a woman who is at that stage where her child is her whole world. So she would rather be home for the kid than read into everything you have to say to her.
Self-sufficient:
She is taking care of a child, remember? So she won’t be the gift-asking, communication-hounding, touch-me-not girls. She will be so self-sufficient that it can even make you a tad insecure. And if you don’t bond well with her kid(S), you’re doomed. You have to show that you’re as responsible and awesome as she is. Perhaps, even more.
You can be casual:
She won’t mind if you make the relationship a casual one than a fully committed affair. She might just be looking for a fun company, someone to chill with, someone who understands her situation and likes her despite all the hurdles.
If you’re seeing a single mom, keep her happy. She deserves all you love and affection. Single mothers are superwomen who perfectly balance work and family, love and career, society and finance and just about everything else.
We salute them for their greatness.
