I think what NM said about "when" she has room in her life for a relationship, i am in that same boat. Don't get me wrong i crave affection, a warm embrace and of course sex, but when my two lil babies are sleeping next to me, my boy farting in the am, daughter kicking us while she moves in the middle of the night, I am not ready.
i do wish i had some time to actually do adult gal things but even if i did plan on going out to a movie, it would have to be during the day and even then i would fall asleep during the movie.
I hear ya jstar. It's only VERY recently that I've been able to go out in the evenings...after seven years of parenting. Mothering asks so much of us. Yet I encourage you to carve out some space to cultivate your identity outside of motherhood as you can. I made a lot of excuses as to why I couldn't do that...and lived to regret it
