I am a single parent of a teenage daughter. I have been divorced since 2019 and single since 2017. I restarted my career at the age of 40 when I separated. I moved with my 10 year old kiddo to a new city with new lifestyle. Life was tough but with proper support and determination, I could turn around my life. I am still work in progress and healing from what I went through. So, I want to open this forum for all single women who need support, love and a space of non-judgmental sharing. Let us build a community of understanding and togetherness. YOU ARE NOT ALONE ANYMORE(YANAA) Cheers, Sandhyaa S Pillai

It must be a tough time for you. It is not easy to watch our own children go through self- sabotage. I am authorised to talk about addiction. pls consult a therapist, counsellor or de-addiction expert to help your son. these services are not biased for single parents. the rootcause could be different but they treat us all equally.

How can one be brave in life to face any kind of situation or hurdle in life ... plz give your advice ??
Hello, being brave is important, but also remember you don't have to be too hard on yourself. It's okay to ask for help whenever required. It is also a sign of bravery.
You should always challenge yourself about the any situation that yes you can do this by any way. Way out the things in a detailed manner

My parents are looking for matches for me and I am ok with it. however I think a dating period is necessary to understand each other. How long should this period be?
It depends on your flow and compatibility in a relationship. There's no fixed time but a few months probably mught be good to get used to each other's compatibility

I really doubt they'll agree to wait for long so maybe 7-8 months is reasonable

So sad I went for a movie with my son and when I came home I had my husband not eating food and calling me names. Just because I went out for a movie with my son . Does it happen with u - how do u deal with it

It's okay to go and enjoy with your children especially when your partner doesn't have time. You don't have to restrict yourself just because your partner doesn't have time for you!

He might also wanted to go with you both and must be calling you names out of jealousy as he missed all the fun with his family 🥰

If you are financially independent and can afford to live with him, then you can certainly move in!

Sarah, a 42-year-old marketing executive, recently divorced with two teenage kids, has been dating Tom, a 45-year-old software engineer who is also divorced, for eight months. Tom has asked Sarah to move in with him, and she is uncertain about the timing and implications of such a big step. How long should you date before moving in together in your 40s? Any advice?
In 40s, there's a lot of things that are sorted with us generally, profession, money, lifestyles..so it may get rigid with each other's space compatibility. Try to communicate with each other your needs and wants and compatibility along with lifestyle factors.
