I don't have to worry about dating anyone. No women my age (26) want to deal with two rugrats (I have them most of the time). So I stay out of trouble. It's my curse.

awww dont say that. i'm sure when the time is right you'll find someone who'll love you and the kiddo's too. there are plenty of sisters out there who will take a brother and his kids.

yeah i was thinking the same thing - there are sisters who want kids, but would rather not go through the pain of labor or the cost of adopting a chinese baby. One of them will come to you when the time is right, you'll seeee

Ah, you're just being nice. My kids would probably scare alot of sisters away.

As a word of encouragement, I was a single mom at 18, and coming into the truth, I figured no brother would ever want to get involved with me, let alone be a father figure to my newborn.
Lo and behold, about 2 years after I got baptized, a brother (and longtime friend of mine and my family's) showed interest, and not only did we get married, but he adopted my son, and loves him as if he were his own flesh and blood.
I'm absolutely positive that there are sisters out there who have the same character as my husband's, as far as your situation goes. Sometimes it just takes time. I used to get so frustrated and upset at my situation, but I focused on the more spiritual things, and I feel like Jehovah blessed me in the long run. I'm sure that things will eventually change. Just try to stay positive, especially for your cute little rugrats! :)

It doesn't matter right now anyway. I work 7 days a week. I have no time for anything. I just like to complain. :o)

Hey, I understand that. The working thing is a struggle in itself, and adding kids to the mix makes it that much more difficult. :)

I work 40 hours a week Mon-Fri as a Mechanical Designer, then I spend Fri-Sun at night, about 15-20 hours as a server at Ruby Tuesday. I get one weekend a month off.

Ooooh, I do the serving thing too. Have been for about a year and a half. About 35 hours (roughly) a week, mostly nights. That alone is rough, and a lot of physical work. And having another full-time job on top of that.....I can't imagine. I've got another small part-time job in addition to my serving one, but only a few hours every few days. Nothing like what you've got going on there. Mad props to you, man. :)

My cheeks were sore Sunday night. And I don't mean the ones on my face. LOL.
