That’s the question I tackle this month at LifetimeTV.com. I say:
“I’m the type of person who gets attached when someone touches me. All that “no-strings-attached” chatter doesn’t work for me. This is how my DNA is wired. I just can’t help it.”
Most of the readers, however, are urging me to go ahead and find a boy toy.
“Rachel, You can have both you just have to keep them separate….You need a very good babysitter for one and secondly you have to be creative. I hope it works out for you. Every woman deserves some adult playtime.”
Hmmm. What do you think? Single moms at LifetimeTV.com are advising me to be honest, have boundaries, and remember that this is “not a real relationship.”
Another single mom says that one of her former friends-with-benefits is her now-husband: “He adopted my daughter. Be strong and good luck.”
So, single moms, please speak up:
Do you have a boy toy?
Have you ever had one?
What were the guidelines? How did you set boundaries?
Lastly, do you think I’m wrong? Can a single mom have her kid and her boy-toy cake too?
