Becoming a single mom and being so young my dating situation was interesting. I don't go out to parties when I have a baby to take care of. Before I met Trent I kinda hated dating because guys are not what I was raised to think they are. I met a lot of new people once I became single and most of the guys I met were defiantly not people that I would want Trevin to look up to. Some guys I did become friends with and went on dates with were nice but weren't ready for my situation, which I am grateful for now, or just weren't want I was looking for. It takes a special kind of man to handle my life and my situation and I wasn't sure what I was ready for at the time. I wanted to focus all my time on Trevin and some people can't understand that especially when they didn't have kids.
I never took Trevin around a lot of my friends and there were very few people that have met Trevin. It was about a month after me and Trent started dating that I actually had him meet Trevin for the first time and it wasn't really planned. I had Trent come over to watch a movie with me after Trevin went to bed and Trevin woke up and I asked Trent if he wanted to meet him and he was pretty excited and it melted my heart. It makes me sad seeing how men treat women in this generation. I defiantly will not be raising Trevin or any of my other sons (if we have a boy in the future) to treat women like that. I am not saying all guys are like this but there seems to be a large amount of them that treat women badly and there are women that treat men badly and it's sad seeing how our world has turn into this. I did have a lot of fun meeting new people and starting a new social/dating chapter in my life. I met up with one friend for ice cream and of course I got blue cotton candy and I didn't think that it would turn my whole mouth blue so I was sitting there talking to him with my mouth blue and I didn't realize it until after I got in the car!! That was probably my most embarrassing dating moment ever and when I told Trent about it he laughed at me. There was another time I met up with someone on Valentine's day and we went to Scheels and looked at deer hunting stuff. Yeah it was defiantly as romantic as is sounds but I still laugh about it today whenever I drive pass there. I was going through a really hard time in my life and I didn't know what I really wanted in my life at that point. I had a hard time trusting anyone so it made it harder for me to get out into the world. I honestly thought I wouldn't be in a commitment for a long time and I would stay single for a while and I wasn't really sure if I even wanted a relationship at this point so I wasn't really looking for one. Being single I did learn a lot about life and myself. I learned what I actually wanted in a relationship and in a man for the first time. What I really learned for the first time was not to settle for anyone less then what I deserve because I have settled a lot when it came to dating and it took me a while to learn that I don't need to do that. Coming from someone who settled a lot seriously don't do it especially with relationships.
