    As cliché as this sounds, you just haven't met the right person yet.

    I would also suggest that instead of focusing on finding a romantic relationship right off the bat. I would approach meeting a new person with the intention of making a new friend as the priority. Let the romance flow naturally if it actually happens.

    The reason I say make new friends is because the introduction of friends of friends works a lot better when it comes to meeting someone that you might be interested in. Friends have a better idea of what you're looking for, so there's a higher chance that they can introduce you to people who might be more compatible with you.

    So, again, go in with the intention of making a new friend first, and let the romance flow naturally. Don't force the romance issue off the bat.

    Maybe you are doing something wrong,are you needy? Do you give off a vibe of 'desperate'... those are horrible to think about but really sit down and maybe ask a friend you trust to give you some honest feedback.

    I totally agree with 'i wish',focus on finding a friendship first and see if it develops.

    Focus on a friendship. It takes the pressure off. You're not worried about finding Mr Right just relaxing and enjoying the friendship.
    Mr. Right may be where you least expect him to be.

    You cannot find someone on the internet? How about going out and trying to meet people, or at work? You are a single mother, but remember that babysitters are normally available and it would be worth it for you to step out of the house and go meet some people. Mr. Right might not come knock at your door, maybe you should be a little more active in finding him? Online relationships are rarely successful.

    Good Luck,
