yes LH, is correct. Emotionally available women do get frustrated with emotionally unavailable men in the dating world. I did date briefly this summer a recently divorced guy with a 3 and a 5 year old and 50:50 custody. I liked him the most out of all my dates, but he wasn’t in a place to date for real.

I do understand where you are coming from. I tried to date and failed when my daughter was little. I didn’t have enough to give all around with all the changes in my life and my daughters . Things had to settle first and for me, it was a while, because I had most custody, had to change jobs a bunch of times to make it work and I had no help. I got involved kn some unhealthy situations with men out of the loneliness and I regret that .

I do admire that you have enough self awareness right now to know this is a big change for the little ones that takes adjusting and also that you couldn’t put what you would need to into dating and a relationship.

Your time will come, and don’t worry, I’m a rarity and you won’t end up like me. I’m in the 2% of the single after so many years
