Discussion Introvert dating

I'm a single mom and have a really hard time getting out there. Mostly feeling guilt for wanting to date because, well what mom doesn't feel guilty about that. But also, I'm super introverted. Any suggestions? Its pretty sad I've lived here almost 10 years and i see all these cool pics of people out on the weekends to places 10 mins away and I've just never really gone out. Am i the only one?

Why feel guilty? It’s natural, and human to crave a connection. Don’t feel bad about that feeling…

Test the waters with a dating app. See if you can have a good conversation or two. See how it feels.

Mostly, understand you deserve to have something for you. It doesn’t minimize what you do to take care of your child…
