Update: One of my single mom friends pointed out that I seem SO congratulatory here. In no way am I advocating teen pregnancy. I’m all for sex-ed and birth control. I think that waiting until you have a baby — until you’re in a solid relationship, with a solid career, and of course, a solid [...]

This single mom wears a wedding ring to work. Why, oh why?

This week, Kirstin — a single mom who works in corporate sales — writes at Single Mom at Work about the fact that she wears a wedding ring to business meetings, even though she is not married:
“I have learned that business acquaintances are much more at ease when they learn I have a child if [...]

All I got for Mother’s Day was a finicky orchid…

And it already looks dead.
No really: I was so tickled when the Biologist showed up for our date the day before Mother’s Day with an orchid. So sweet! It’s the first time in his life that he has ever dated a single mom, and he gets an A+ for his sincerity and genuineness.

Is Single Mom Seeking hotter than Dooce? What do YOU think?

Don’t get me wrong. Heather Armstrong at Dooce is One Hot Mama, there’s no doubt about it. That woman can write, she gets my kudos for baring it all. Plus, Heather is the No. 1 rockin’ trend setter who started her blog all the way back in 2001. I was going to say, “She’s [...]

In 2005, as I was shopping around the proposal for Single Mom Seeking, I read this “Modern Love” column in the New York Times called “Who’s that lady in the bedroom, Daddy?“
I was giddy. At last, a single dad who told the truth about trying to date and parent at the same time! I wanted [...]

“Dating bitter single mom”

By singlemomseeking ⋅ January 2, 2008 ⋅ 5 comments

Who me? No!
I’m in full wind-up mode over here with the start of the New Year. Are you? It’s the first time in days that I’ve had a few hours to get my mind wrapped around work again. (My animal-loving daughter is off at the zoo. The Oakland zoo, not the San Francisco one where [...]

My Favorite Divorced Dad Blogs

By singlemomseeking ⋅ December 28, 2007 ⋅ One comment

Tell me if I’m wrong, but there aren’t too many single dads out there writing blogs. C’mon guys, where are you? Speak up, please.
Trey Ellis, one of my favorite single dad bloggers, kindly responded to my email in 2005, after I wrote to him. I’d just read his brilliant Modern Love column in the New [...]
