Hey Dred
Timing is crucial as we all know!
But being a Mother of three is no easy task and priorties tend to change after a break up of any kind.
Its easy to dive into the roll and concentrate primarily on being a parent.....then you tend to come up for air now and again and WHAMO.....time has run straight passed you!
There's the added concerns of wondering if both children and your new man are compatible in the long run.
Some guys just dont want the addition of more children, especially if they have a couple or more themselves!
Finding one that is prepared to go the distance and love you and your children, is extremely hard work all round.
Unfortunately, some women loose their confidence when their marriage crashes and thus makes meeting a special guy somewhat harder.
And years can fly by, almost unnoticed, as we all experience.....
