“ I Don’t Want Butterflies. I Want Sleep.” Listen, as a single custodial grandmother, I can relate to this entirely and it’s one of many reasons why I’m taking my time before I tip toe into the shallow end of the dating pool. People automatically assume you’re looking for a savior or someone to take care of “someone else’s kid” and it’s exhausting. Thanks for the good read. Keep them coming.
I needed this reminder/validation, so thank you! My kids are older than yours but they still need me stable and centered. I’m empathetic and I like to give people chances. Just yesterday I had a date where the vibes were great and the chemistry was promising. But he’s recently divorced, living in an RV, has PTSD from being deployed. My bleeding heart doesn’t want to reject him for these things because it implies I’m judging him for them. So thanks for this post, it was timely for me.
