When I reached out to Michelle recently, I realized how many times we’d been down similar paths. She noticed, too. “I think that similarity in our histories was the first thing I noticed when I first found Single Mom Seeking,” she says.
For starters, we both had our kids at age 27. “Joe’s dad and I only knew one another for a few months when I got pregnant,” Michelle says. “He left shortly after Joe was born.”
When Michelle told me about launching her blog “First Comes Motherhood Then Comes Marriage,” I smiled. Because that sums up my path for sure:
“I’ve been a 24/7 single mom for 12 years. The lack of free time and money for sitters made it near impossible to date. So, I often fell into things (and then stayed too long) with the kinds of men that were around me. I chose men that weren’t interested in the kind of commitment I was looking for. They weren’t bad people, they just wanted different things.”
“I think being a mother first has made me a better candidate to be a good wife. It’s taught me about compromise and commitment. The blog title also reminds me to trust the order in which things unfolded in my life. They’ll be plenty of time for marriage and I finally feel surrendered that it will happen when it’s meant to happen.”
