Hi, I'm wondering if there is anything I can do as a single father to get more plates. Obviously I don't often go on nights out or anything, as I have my 1 year old for 6 days of the week, and the day I don't have him I get very frustrated when I don't have a date set up, or if I get flaked on.
A problem I encounter is that I think people assume I am in a relationship, and I don't know if there is a way to convey that I am not, without just saying straight away.
Most of the women in my social circle who I have a lot in common with, know my child's mother (my ex) and I don't know if they would be ok with her knowing they were dating me etc.
I have been struggling recently to meet new women, and wouldn't consider online, but have never approached anyone when I have my child with me.
As a result I begin to get attatched to someone way too quickly if they get close to me, so I think I require more plates to stop this.
I don't know if anyone deals with the same thing, or if anyone has any tips for my situation, but I would be thankful for any help.
