| BBW AND single mom... so hard. Posted: 7/8/2008 8:10:37 PM | I know how you feel! It has been my experience that many men won't even consider dating a large woman. It's a shame because I'm really fabulous! | |

| BBW AND single mom... so hard. Posted: 7/10/2008 2:33:55 AM | I know exactly what you mean, im a bbw and a single mum and i get absolutely no attention from guys, i cant even get my foot in the door. Gotta say tho, ive just met a guy i found on here and he's lovely. We are seeing how things go, but it says a lot that hes not bothered by my weight or child status. I think ive found someone special. | |

| BBW AND single mom... so hard. Posted: 7/11/2008 4:19:56 AM | Being a BBW and single mom is one hurdle, but for me it's also knowing if I am ready for a relationship again. It's been 6 years since I broke up with my 5 year old's "dad", but I'm not always sure if I want to get close to anyone... I would like to be friends with guys first, then maybe if things progress towards a relationship. that would be cool. My concern is all the emotional drama/roller coaster ride that seems to go with relationships. I'm not interested in any of that. I don't just mean on the guy's side, but on my end as well. So, I've stayed away from the dating scene and even if a guy should be interested in me I generally don't notice, or I down play it and . Not like there is a lot to run from (I've wanted to use that smiley since first logging on). I suppose this (my ad, this post) is my first real attempt at really trying to come out of my loaner state.... again. | |

Ok now you know what I think? You are worried about nothing !
There a few things you can change .
If you to label yourself BBW live up to the words they represent. One of those words is BEAUTIFUL.
Don;t like the way you look anymore ..change it .but change it for you and your children . So you can be a healthy you.
Single mom -means you have taken on the responsibility someone else did not want. Be proud of that fact. I know too many two parent families that are a mess. Grass ain't always that green on the other side.
If you limit yourself by saying you can't. it will never happen
Suggestions
Join groups Get involved with your kid's school Go back to school Give yourself a break by taking a me day and the most important thing. Stop looking let it come to you!
I waited till my son was almost 15 before I stepped out the door and decided it was time for me to have some . Some days are better than ever but I love being out there | |

| BBW AND single mom... so hard. Posted: 7/11/2008 8:45:20 AM | | I disagree with you OP. Its not "so" hard to find a date being a bigger woman... I have no problem finding guys that want to date me and Im no toothpick, I also have a son. The problem is finding one that is going to be there in the long run! | |

| BBW AND single mom... so hard. Posted: 7/11/2008 12:58:52 PM | First and formost put your focus on you and your self esteem if you are not happy with self how can you make any one else happy. Love u and let God send you his man that he has 4 you. Stop looking and let nature takes it's course. I can relate being a single proud mom raising 2 kids alone it's very hard 2 date, but if you have faith when you least exspect your will find you and appreciate you 4 who you are and nothing less ! keep your head up and start on your adventures with losing the weight.
Good luck and God bless  | |
