Testimonies of singles and other people without the love they need
A single mother
"I have checked your website and
just wanted to share some of my personal views with
you. I especially liked the "Debunking..." section...
the starvation analogy made me cry. Yes you are so
right. I know what you are talking about. (I was
married for 8 years to a homosexual man who only used
me to cover up, and i was starved completely -
physically as well as emotionally - even though i was
not "single" per se at that time, but i perfectly know
what you are talking about.)
I have now been a single mother for almost 3 years, and
i feel that this is another completely unbearable state
of this world: that so many men should abandon their
wives and children, but only few should accept to
marry a woman who has kids already. Being single is
bad. Being a single mom is much, much worse, please
believe me! Women are not made to raise children
alone. And it seems that we single moms are given even
less right to complain. I get to hear so many seemingly
benign comments from people... Is it wrong of me to
want a partner, a husband, for Gods sake! The
"husband" i had slept with me just about 20 times over
8 years, and it was the most miserable sex i ever had -
and they ask me to be happy and contented with the life
i have now, and to concentrate on other things than
finding love?"
