K.,
It's very easy to balance dating with raising a child. I did it but I never brought my dates to the house when my children were home. I always made sure they were already at the sitter's when he came to pick me up, I kept that part of my life separate from my child. When I did finally bring somebody home to meet my children it was after a year of exclusive dating and I was sure we were ready to take our relationship to another level. My dates knew I had children and respected me for keeping my life with them private from him.
