Afternoon all 
Well as many of you may (or may not) know I am a single mummy to a 14 month old. It has been just the two of us since I split from her father nearly a year ago.
Anyway had a very tough six months after I left (during which i piled on an extra couple of stone, my hair fell out due to hormones, totm went haywire and my confidence and self esteem went through the floor - Men! Pah!), followed by a turbulent period where I was quite low. All of which lead to a complete lack of libido and a feeling of unworthiness, and basically no interest in the opposite (or same! lol) sex.
Anyway, this leads me up to starting Cambridge in early June (3 months ago today!). Things have gradually improved since then - I am more confident as every week goes by, my self esteem is improving, and it is like I have my passion for life back! All of which coincides with me losing 5 stone in 3 months (woohooo).
Suddenly I am becoming very aware of being on my own, coupled with a return of libido, and as I said improving confidence etc. As a result I am finding myself fancying every man I speak to!! lol. I have crushes on several men I work with (all of whom are married and no I wouldnt ever do anything about it), and as the title says, I feel like a dog on heat!!!
Problem is I just don't know how to meet men
sounds dumb but all the men I work with are married, and I just don't get the opportunity to go out alot due to babysitting issues/knackeredness/work/no one to go out with etc. I have tried internet dating (how I met my ex - we were together 2 1/2 years) however it just seems to have got even more sleazy than ever before. Ditto chat rooms.
I think subconsciously as well I am more weary than ever before due to my daughter - I don't want to mess her about, put her at any risk, or introduce her to an ever changing string of men (i should be so lucky). I am also worried that as soon as a man finds out I have a kid they will lose interest completely...
Sorry that ended up being rather long...
