Rant, ahoy!

[liandriel]

As a single mother, one of the things I've heard a lot from the men I've dated is, "I don't want to compete with your son for your attention." Sometimes, they get creative with the phrasing; usually not.

But after ten years of hearing various iterations of the same thing, I have one thing to say about that:

Bullshit.

Kids require attention.

I have a feeling my kids are Reason #1 nobody has shown one single bit of interest in me since my husband left two and a half years ago.

Is it horribly cynical of me to say that wouldn't surprise me in the least?

[redqueenmeg]

Nah, just realistic.
