Plenty of Fish my big toe!

How is a single mom who doesn't have a social life supposed to meet guys? I live, almost literally, behind a bar but you will never catch me there. The single guys that go into bars to meet women are there to meet them for the exact reasons I don't want to meet them. I have yet to find a cute guy that isn't gay, married, or in a committed relationship out at the store. All, those tv shows that talk about meeting their soul mate while trying to decided if this fat green thing is really a cucumber or a zucchini lied to me. I have never met anyone at Church that wasn't already married of engaged. Apparently Church's are full of married couples and the single people are nonexistent. The guys at the club play way to much game when they, in reality, have none. I go to every scout function my son has in hopes of running into a single dad. No such luck there either! I don't want to date any of the single guys my friends know. Those guys really are single for a reason.

So, that pretty much leave dating sites.... The ones that are worthwhile cost way more money than this single mom can afford. That leaves me with free dating sites. They are free for a reason. They produce more boys looking for a booty call than they do men who are serious about finding that possible "One." I am a single mom going to college, I want the "One." If I wanted a booty call I would walk my happy butt the 80 feet to the bar.

Then you have to hope that the guy(s) you do connect with on there aren't weirdo's if you decide to actually meet them. I have discovered a trick that weeds out the ones that want to put in the time and effort. By the way, still looking for a guy that wants to put in the time and effort. I tell them that I will not get in bed with a guy until we are in a committed relationship together. They drop like flies when they hear that one. Also, being a single mom that goes to college full time and has no car after 4pm tends to put a damper on things as well. If you are willing to talk to me through email/text/phone calls long enough for me to see a reason behind hiring a babysitter for a few hours then we will meet up. Until then, we only talk electronically.

I have also noticed that because I am going to school for Criminal Justice and want to go back for Psychology and Sociology that guys think I am more mature than I really am. You put me in a toy section with toys that say "try me" you can bet your happy behind I will "try" every single one of them! Its not that I am more mature, its just that I know now, after a few bad apples, what I do and do not want in my life or around my son. I can be as immature as my son if the situation calls for it. Yet, my carer goals make guys run for the hills.

Maybe I will just wait until my son hits college. There has to be a few guys my age that are divorced by then!
