My divorce has been final about six months. Nemo met Elvira the month I conceived Lucian, which was over two years ago. At what point do I start dating again?
It seems a strange question to me. I've known Nemo most of my adult life. I can't imagine returning to the dating scene. Especially the non-bar dating scene.
I have alot of baggage (or at least what a potential date would probably see as baggage): I'm a diabetic with a young son, no job, no car, living with my parents, and a time consuming, burdensome parenting time relationship with my ex-husband and his family. Please don't all you wonderful eligible men out there all call me at once now!!
At the same time, I'd like to believe that I'm still datable. I'm funny, charming, educated, a good partner, mother, daughter and friend, I'm respectable, reliable, dependable, frugal, non-judgmental, and tolerant. Basically, I'm the girl next door.
But this isn't my dating ad. Just a question about getting on with my life. However do I start dating again? And however do I not start dating again?

- I'm a 30-something mom to a wonderful little boy named Lucian, who was conceived using a sperm donor and IUI. Previous to that, I did IVF twice. I've had type 1 diabetes for almost twenty-five years and have used an insulin pump for eight. I'm currently using the Deltec Cozmo. I'm divorced from Nemo, who left me while I was pregnant. I'm currently single, without a job, and living with my parents. I'm not a writer, just someone with a story to tell. All events are factual to the best of my memory. Names are changed to protect the not-so-innocent.
