I tried so hard to find something wrong with him, and when I found nothing I was stumped. I was a total rag as often as I could be because I was afraid. Once I realized he is in this with me for the long haul I let my scaredy cat guard down and our relationship went to a whole new and exciting level. I never allowed myself to put that guard down with anyone and 4 months into our relationship I did. He is wonderful with my daughter and just an amazing man. I feel so comforted by your blog because I always thought that something was wrong with me. My feelings and thoughts seemed so crazy to most people...Reading your thoughts helps make me realize that what I was doing and thinking were totally normal and I thank you for that!!!

I am proud to say I raised her and supported us all by myself. Although very tough and trying at times, I did it! I swore up and down I would NEVER get married again and my mom always said, "never say never you have no idea what your future holds". Here I am now, just turned 30, scary!, and I am getting married in August. I can't believe that I have found a man that loves my daughter as much as I do. He is kind, caring and most of all understanding...(which is a great quality to have when dating a single mom). I love him more and more every day and I can't wait for the 3 of us begin our new life together! There are good men out there. They may be very few and far between but they are there. I am a firm believer in the saying...stop looking. It is soooo true! I am very happy for you and I wish you the best!!!
