I am 26 and have 2 kids, do you think there is still a man out there for me? I am to my wits end with the man I have been with for 8 years. I think it is time to move on, just wondering if I'd ever find someone else

I get the impression that you feel the need to have a man in your life. Honey, you don't need a man to be happy. Either love the one you're with, or commit to living alone (at least for a time). And yes, of course, there is always a man out there. Some good, some not so good, ...but don't let THAT be the reason to end a relationship.
-
you have to advertise and sell your package. there are men who are single parents with two kids who would love to meet you.

Can you not be happy by yourself? What's wrong with being happy and single? Are you married? If so, don't you think you can work on your marriage? Yes, I do believe that you'll find someone else...but not as long as your emotionally attached to the wrong man. I believe that you need to be secure and happy being alone before your Mr. Wonderful will come along. Why wouldn't you find someone else? Oh, and it's better to be happy and single than with someone and miserable. However, if you're married, I do believe that you should do everything you can to honor that marriage.

Sure you would find someone else. But at one time, you were madly in love with your husband, weren't you? At one time, you guys couldn't stand to be apart. You now have 2 kids who need their mom AND their dad in their lives. Sit down with your husband. Ask forgiveness for the things you have done wrong. Forgive him for the things he has done wrong. Do everything you can to love him and make him happy (even if he doesn't return it equally at first). You made promises to each other. Keep them. For the sake of your kids, keep them.

I think you will. It might be harder because you do have kids and some guys can be weird about taking on kids that aren't "theirs", but I think there are really good men out there who will love you and your kids. But if you do think it's time to move on, I would say do that as soon as you can. Your gut is always right! But have a plan. I got divorced earlier this year, and I wish I'd had more of a plan. I'm broke! :) I agree with Juliet - don't just get out of a relationship to get into another. That's what I mean about having a plan. It might help you with your confidence to get out there on your own and take care of you and your wee ones before trying to get another guy in your life. I think it would make you feel better about yourself, and can turn some guys on! I think men like it when they feel a gal "has it together".

Of course! Come on. Don't worry.

I do not see why there should be a man out there. You can provide a life for yourself for you and your children without being dependent on someone else. I have a hard time understanding people who seem to think their life is not complete without a person to share it with, especially a parent. You have children to share with, which has always been enough for me. However, once you have a complete life, and have something to offer to another person, you probably wouldn't have any problem finding someone to share it.

If you feel that it is time to move on, there are great guys out there just waitng to be found! Good luck=)

Of course there is. A friend from work dated and lived with a girl who had a child and pretty much raised it as his own, and he loved the child so much (past tense cause the relationship didn't work out cause the woman was violent). Some guys are okay with kids and are actually happy to be with someone who has children passed the baby age cause they like kids but not babies.

Think of it this way. You have a ready made family ''Right''. You have done most of the work. So I you feel you need a man, find one who wants a family without all the diapers and terrible two's. If I was to have a family in this day and age and had it my way ,I would adopt a 5 years old. I hope I explained it right !
-
first make sure you finished with your man than move on sort everything out and than go out once in a while no rushing than one day you meet a new man try some out ist.
-
Sounds like you are your problem. Before you destroy your family and mess up your kids, maybe you should seek some help for yourself.
-
try and fix things with the man your with but if that doesnt work then there will be a second chance. if its any conselation im 15 and i think ill be a single dad soon and the girl i love loves someone else. Oh and the mum is someone completely different. despite popular opinion there are decent guys out there and their not all horrified of children :L

Seek and ye shall find.
