Hey, I just found this place last night while I was half asleep, wondering about certain things in my life. I am a 26 year old female from Aotearoa aka New Zealand I have a beautiful 3 year old daughter, and take care of my 17 year old brother whom will be leaving my care soon... Ive been technically "Single" since I concieved my daughter to a guy I was with for 4 years b4 I got pregnant. Anyways I wont get right into the nitty gritty part of that...although Im bursting at the seams to let that out... I wont because Im just trying to do my big intro here hehe.. anyways I have to say life is what you make of it...it throws you those curve balls sometimes you get hit and sometimes you learn how to dodge them... Anyways its such a cool thing to have this place up... I read alot of the posts last night and was about to post but realised I was venting... when I really thought it be best to just do an intro first...I enjoy the posts by men... because its rare to hear guys talk about this topic...and it makes men seem all that more human...Anyways thats me... I have so much more to dribble but Ill spare you that right now...and its cool to see people in the same... or worse position as me...and I say worse coz those situations make me greatful for the situation Im in... hope that doesnt seem self fish.. anyways take care all you wonderful..giving.. single parents. Peace

Had to chuckle about the men seeming more human, we'll take that as a compliment.

I haven't been on this website long, but I've found that it gives me a sense of peace not only to share my story, but to give advice to those who may need it, too. There are alot of really fantastic people here to listen and share with. I only wish I had found the site much sooner. I hope this site offers you as much as you need to feel peace with yourself and your situation.

I just found out last week I am going to be a single mother since my husband is moving out. He says it is a "trial" seperation to see if he can work his feelings out and get it together - but I know the truth he is just trying to soften the blow. I am absolutely terrified, I am sad, mad, hurt and lonely all at the same time. We have not told the boys yet, which scares me even more. I think he has a girlfriend even though he says no. The crazy thing is everyone thinks I am keeping it so together so well when I am really dying inside. I do not know anyone where I live since we just moved here, therefore I really don't have anyone to talk to but my shrink. HELP.
