It's true. The same thing happened with my stepson. Long story short, his mother had too many kids to raise, so I raised him instead. I never had any of my own.

That isn't the half of it, but I suppose someone like me isn't cut out for someone like that. I did my fair share of flipping out because of it. He could never understand what I was mad about, even when I caught his conversations on dating websites and even a message he sent to his brother's girlfriend about how pretty she was and how he wanted to take her out for a drink. What pissed me off the most about that one is that he said he hated her. She was overbearing and weird. Years later, after my husband and I split, she got into a fight with my brother-in-law and sent me the message as if giving it to me then would somehow make us friends. Asshole. I guess that is the funny part, his complete narrowmindedness. Oddly, it hasn't so much as destroyed my confidence in others, but my confidence in myself. Funny how that works.

Just don't know anyone good enough to be romantic with. Everyone here has either been in bed with a dozen men and popped out a kid or two, or is a complete drunk and drug addict. Humpf, so much for choice.
You need to move to a bigger town.

I don't know. I think being single for too long reminds you a lot of past hurts and why you are single. Sometimes being around someone new helps you forget that shit. That being said, I think my plan is to be single for a while without even so much as sexual relationships. I hate complications and both come with complications.

Or you would driver her nuts with them.
