I really enjoy being single, but ultimately I would love to find someone to be with in a meaningful relationship. I have to say that busy family times really make me miss having someone there to help and just talk things through with. It can all be so overwhelming sometimes.

MickMan 06-11-2012 08:34 AM

I have been single for about 5 plus years now. As much as I would like a relationship, it will be hard. I care for my mom who has Alzheimer's and it is a full time job. Not sure many would understand.

But, it would be nice.:hk19:

Spikester 06-11-2012 10:01 AM

Hello to all the singles, one thing sucks about being single
Is that have vacation time and no one to spend it with

I have a small daughter and I feel the same way. For any relationship to become serious, my daughter and I have to be a package deal. It certainly complicates things but I have hope.

Exactly. Mom is going no where anytime soon, as I am sure the case with your daughter. Children and in my case my mom, need a lot of attention and care. Should someone choose to be a part of this life, they could see the devotion one can have for another.

Peace,
Mick

You'd be surprised how many people who are in the same position as you. I also take care of my Mom, but for different medical reasons. I moved to Mobile from Milwaukee to take care of both my parents. My dad had cancer and died a little over a year after the move. My mom cannot live by herself. It does get difficult to balance your personal life with your family commitments. I do agree it does get lonely at times. Honestly it is frustrating, but you got to do these things when someone in your family needs you. I wish I weren't single and I would love to be in a relationship with someone. I guess in time it will happen. Thank you for sharing your situation.

LoyalWolfsBlade 06-11-2012 09:51 PM

To all the singles with family situations that make getting into a relationship difficult I would like to give you some hope. There are people out there that wouldn't think twice about dating you whether it is a child or a parent that makes you a package deal. I know because I am one of those people so others must exist. I would NEVER date a femme or get into a long term relationship with one if she had a child and I wasn't ready to step up and have that child become a part of my life as well. I never understand butches that get into relationships with moms then get upset that she has a child. The same would hold true for anyone that was taking care of an adult family member for any reason! So never give up your special someone is out there. Might be right in front of your eyes or around the next corner you take or thread you post in.

Licious 06-11-2012 10:20 PM

I am encouraged by this singles thread.

I am happy with myself, but it has been a while... and I wouldn't find someone to spend some of my time with. I have some special circumstances as well, and like to think someone out there would still be happy to be my butch. Time will tell.

Meanwhile, everyone have a great week!


Little Fish 06-13-2012 06:33 AM

Alix,
Your point is well taken and we singles would do well to remember this and be encouraged.
I have an amazing 8yo son whom I share with my ex-wife. Since he loves with me half-time, I do get a chance to date and maintain friendships, I'm lucky in that regard. But at this point I am clear I want more children so I do not even consider seriously anyone who doesn't already have children or who is not open to this--it can limit the pool but generally I think I benefit from the Butches with Babies/Kids thing...

(a thought for those of you caring for parents, often times the condition-specific local chapter --say Alzheimer's --will have a respite program to allow you to get out, take a break, whatever--for all of you, I now it's hard and devoted care, you have my support.)

Julien 06-13-2012 07:01 AM

Good morning to all you singles,
I hope you are well and are ready to face the day. I woke up to my furry alarm clock, aka Connor my cat, and am not fully awake. That's alright, I am off to work at the library. I also would like to thank you for your support for my post concerning the care of my Mom. Have a great day.

MickMan 06-15-2012 05:22 AM

Well, another day and well, I guess that's about it. LOL Another day!

Life is good and hope all of you enjoy your days today.

Seize the day!!!

Mick:pirate-steer:

Spikester 06-15-2012 02:49 PM

Still single here lol anyway everyone have a good weekend

Mr Nice Guy 06-15-2012 02:53 PM

Single like a one dollar bill. :)

Julien 06-15-2012 03:08 PM

Well it looks like there are a few Butch or FTM singles out there, so my question is this where are the single Femmes? :rrose: Can't we start a conversation? You'd think this thread would be full of activity. We can't all be as shy as I am. :blush:

Mr Nice Guy 06-15-2012 03:11 PM

That sounds like fun. I'm game. :)

ruthie14 06-15-2012 03:30 PM

Mr Nice Guy 06-15-2012 04:07 PM

Hey Ruthie, no party here. I have to work. But have fun bowling. :)

Beloved 06-15-2012 05:57 PM

There are lots of single femmes around. We need a butch femme commune because it seems we are all geographically challenged!

Yes I think that's it exactly and oh the being shy part. hmmmm....

Julien 06-16-2012 06:57 AM

Good morning to everyone. So far it is a beautiful morning here, no rain as of yet, maybe later. Tonight I'm going to the movies with some friends and I'm looking forward to meeting new people. I hope your day goes well. Now it's off to breakfast for me. :coffee:

Breezy 06-16-2012 07:41 AM

Hi Breezy,
Good to see you here. Welcome to the thread. I hope your day is a good one. It seems to be quiet here this morning. I guess people are sleeping in. :sunglass:

ruthie14 06-16-2012 07:51 AM

Happy Saturday Singles! It's a beautiful day here! Going to the farmers market, then to acupuncture, then to a River Sharks game! (minor league baseball). I can't wait to start my day!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Breezy, nice to have you on the thread!

Ruthie

Breezy 06-16-2012 10:47 AM

Thank you Julien and Ruthie. Have a beautiful weekend!

Mr Nice Guy 06-16-2012 12:07 PM

Hi all!! I'm at work and wanted to pop in and say HI. See you all later. :)

prettyboyreg 06-16-2012 10:30 PM

Hey!
 
Hello All! Happy Saturday!

Julien 06-18-2012 07:29 AM

Good morning to all you singles and anyone else who happens upon this thread.
Have a great day and look forward to seeing you later. It is off to the library I go for fun filled hours of fondling books. See ya!

Breezy 06-18-2012 11:24 AM

Hi Julien. I hope you had fun making love to the books...;)

Hi Breezy,
as only I can :sunglass:
I hope you are having an amazing day.

ferret 06-18-2012 06:12 PM

As much as having a dating/romantic relationship sounds appealing to me, I think my time for now is best spent taking care of myself. I know I'm a constant work in progress and I'll readily accept and admit my flaws. I can always hope, however, that someone will like me or love me regardless of them.

Julien 06-19-2012 07:18 AM

Good morning Beloved, Ruthie, Breezy, Mr. Nice Guy, PrettyBoyReg, Ferret and to all the other singles out there.

Well I do not have to work today and that is a good thing. Let's see what today has to offer and I look forward to whatever it is. I hope you all have a great day.

Here is a question for the singles, where do You meet people? I find it difficult to do here in a small town, but I'm working on it. I recently started to attend the local MCC and am hoping for something else to come of that experience. So far it is a good one. I guess networking here is a good thing. I was just wondering what Your experiences have been in meeting people.
Julien

ferret 06-19-2012 01:53 PM

I live in Kentucky and it's next to impossible to meet anyone here. I've tried to get involved in different things, but if you don't fit into someone's clique, forget it. I had thought maybe I'd meet someone online (never know), but that hasn't turned out to be the best idea. For now, I think I've pretty much said f-it to the whole notion of dating.

Beloved 06-19-2012 02:03 PM

I seem to only meet people through work. Otherwise, I have no idea. I am on the shy side. It seems like most of my really good friends I met in high school or college when I was forced to be with the same people all the time. I guess work is like that as well!

Mr Nice Guy 06-19-2012 03:04 PM

Still single and dancing a jig. Lol

SweetJane 06-19-2012 03:19 PM

Meeting people? I've tried where I live. I do have friends... mostly straight people and gay men. But that's OK. Friends are friends.

I did the mingling thing with the local lesbian community, but, while they're polite, they don't make conversation. As soon as they know your story (and believe me it goes through the whole community), they aren't interested. They don't even want to meet for coffee---except in a large group. Most are coupled, too.

Online? Nope. Been there, done that. Done my share of driving to meet someone, only to find out that it wasn't what you expected on either side.

So I'm done. Sayonara dating!

Good luck to you all! I hope you find someone worthy.

Does a curtsy and exits....

yotlyolqualli 06-19-2012 05:33 PM

Hello. It's a warm day here in south central Pa and tomorrow promises to be warmer! That would be GREAT if I liked hellishly hot summer days! Which I don't :(

I am trying to be kind and considerate to my ex (yeah, we decided to try the friend things again) but she's already acting resentful that my social calender isn't free for her to pick and choose when she wants to do something, whatever that something is. Granted, my social calander only has one name on it (TT) but there it is.

We're going to have to have THE talk again. Her sullenly listening, me calmly explaining that not only is TT a very very important part of my life, I am also pretty much decided on getting my OWN TT. (child lol) So, this is my life, either be a part of it or don't, but don't expect the pouting, sullen silences and guilt trips to do anything but make me stop taking your calls.

I am single, and do want the marriage, the kids, the entire nine yards, but I am taking this time to learn how to be me again, just me, to learn how to be in love with myself. It truly isn't as difficult as I thought it would be. Turns out that I am rather loveable! Who knew?? LOL

Anyway, though I can, at times, come off as a bitch, I truly am not and am open to any and all friendships. The best relationships are built on a solid foundation of friendship.

Take care,
Lissa

FtMGuy 06-19-2012 06:00 PM

Hello Single folks! I am single, live in Lincoln, Ne.
Doesnt seem that there are many queer femmes or femmes that want to date FtM guys but I like living here so.

I do like meeting people and dating and traveling.

ruthie14 06-19-2012 06:40 PM

Happy Hump day tomorrow! work, acupuncture, then women's bocce...yay!!!!!!
