Dating a
single parent
Bob
writes, "I am 27 year old with a good job and
loving heart. I just got out of a two-year
relationship with an older woman with two kids.
It's been really hard adjusting back to the
single life since I have no kids of my own, and
I grew so attached to these kids that I
considered them as my own. Whenever I run into
her or the kids, I feel a surge of emotions and
cannot stand the fact that I cannot play with
them any more. The
relationship was ended by her
since she needs space, was not happy and has not
been for a while. Is there any hope for me? At
times I think I am too nice of a guy to find a
good woman.
What can nice, quiet guys do for
love? I hate
jumping from relationship to
relationship. What advice can you give me on
this?" |

Indeed,
things go wrong all the time even in a
perfect
relationship and it does not mean that you will
never
find love again. Actually, based on what you
describe, you are a "dream man" for any woman out
there. (Related

There
is a myth that "nice guys finish last." Now, unless
your definition of a nice guy is a
shy guy, it is
only a myth. Actually, we receive dozens of messages
each month from women who run into jerks more often
than into nice guys. They spend money and time to
find men that are like you -
financially stable,
loving, and
great with kids. So I don't think you
need help with how to date, so just go ahead and
keep trying - I am confident that another
woman will
see the beauty in you and give you what you deserve.
