Episode Transcript

Okay, so I don't wanna get all into your business, but dating as a single. Is different than just dating as a single person, can we talk about that a little bit and compare and contrast? I know for me now, all right, 20 year difference. I'm dating,. So you just need to know at that point in time, when you're looking at my profile, I'm a single mom, right? And then that's it. Like you're going to hear kid noises in the background, you know? And you know, that might work for some people, it doesn't work for some people. But as a single parent, I feel I have very specific needs in terms of dating, and I am very clear about what those needs are, and I'm okay walking away from situations where it's just not for me, you know? But. You know I'm, I'm terrible at it. I've always been terrible at it. I'll be honest about that. And for me I didn't care as much because I decided I was parenting, you know, for good periods of time. And so that was a priority. That was the [00:01:00] priority. And that also made things difficult. Right? Because the picture we paint for children is that, the person who's your ideal partner will be someone who puts you first, who sees you as the most important thing in their world or whatever. Mm-hmm. . Well, that's not gonna work for those of us who see ourselves as single parents who are you know, parenting. And sometimes I feel like there are these toxic patterns where people will follow that they will think of their children as secondary not just to their partner, their mate, but to the person who might be come, their partner or mate who might also not, you know mm-hmm.
