Because he cheated on me and because he decided he wanted a new life, new job and new body (gastric bypass). But despite kicking him out, when his surgery went bad, I still took care of him and stayed in the hospital for three weeks with him. My daughter is the light of my life and I remember everyday that what I do, I do for her.

I'm a single dad because me and my ex just couldn't agree to anything. She pretty much tore my family apart and I lost trust in alot of people, but I'm trying to start trusting others but so far, it isn't going to well. I'm just here to meet someone nice, and someone who won't take me for granted. I am a great father and a really nice person to be with. I am just looking for someone to have a simple relationship with and is fine with me having a daughter.

Because I'm responsible, hardworking, and reliable and my ex-wife is none of those things and neither is her husband. Is kinda sad the single guy here (me) is the custodial parent where as my ex-wife married the loser she cheated on me with and neither of them can provide a home for our child. I'm so busy doing everything by myself is about impossible to meet anyone to date. But there is no way am gonna throw my responsibilities away like she can and have my son suffer just so I can find someone. So am here hoping can find someone like everyone else here.

My soon to be ex-husband of 20yrs has chosen his addiction over our 3 children and myself. He has had several chances-he will do well for a month to 3months, and then the same patterns start occurring. Then the disappearing act, Infidelity...bank account suddely is depleted and I'm left to pick up the pieces once more and I have realized I DO deserve much better. I want to have the love and respect, care and concern...stability I give~to be reciprocated. I've waited half my life for someone that isn't even the same person anymore...traveled from Japan to CA, to KS, back home to NY, to CO...and this man can't even be that man for his children and I. So....long story short...LOL, METH.

After three years of giving him everything(money, support, etc) he decided because I was wanting him to finally get a payroll job and actually support us like a man is suppose to support his family, he went and cheated on me numerous times as soon as we got back to California. Now he doesn't call or even takes the advantage I give him to see his daughter. He puts partying and his friends in front of her and I am not the mama to let anything get in front of my daughter. I even. Tried for months to work things out wit him. It's just his cycle. But I'm happy I made the decision to stop. Trying and embrace my single status, now I'm able to focus on me and my baby

After almost 3 years of being together, I had enough of my child's father verbally abusing me and blaming all of his shortcomings on me. When he twisted my arm around to try to take my baby out of my arms I had enough and said peace... then left with my child. Since then he hasn't had anything to do with our child unless I called him requesting for some kind of financial assistance.. like daycare costs. I got married after him to a friend of mine out of the need for insurance, not love.. and I live with that mistake still. No longer with him and since then haven't found the right guy to help me raise my beautiful boy. Not that I need one...

Because my ex husband walked out on me and the boys after 22 years of marriage. He decided he wanted to be with his high school girlfriend instead. He cheated on me with all kinds of women, belittled and verbally abused me all the time, and stayed out all weekend long leaving me and the kids with no transportation or money. When he walked out after our house was hit by lightning and burned down, he said "You'll have to pay for the divorce because I can't afford it." Grrr. I showed him, though. I filed for divorce and it didn't cost me a penny to get rid of his sorry behind! I'm just sorry I didn't do it sooner!

i didnt choose to be a single parent my ex that is the father of my son we were doing great and living in a house an everything on our own didnt need help well that all changed when he started getting pickier about the house. he gave me rules to go by if i didnt have the house cleaned before he got home my son and i were kicked out. if there was a plate that wasnt washed kicked out. laundry not done kicked out. just stupid stuff. well he came home after a long night of staying out partying and drinking with his friends he was telling his friends that im a bad mom and that im just a no good person and that he didnt want to be with me no more so his friends told him to dump me and kick me out. well he finally came home after a no call or text for over a day and all he said to me was pack yours and our sons shit and get the f... out. so he kicked us out and he said just to let him cool down and he did down to we were talking and he told me he was sorry and that if we worked everything out we were gonna go get married well he used me to sign over the title to the car that was in my name. i was planning to shut off his electricity get him for child support and i was trying for fip well i canceled all of those bc he said he wanted to get back together and that he missed us well i left the power on i canceled everything so there was nothing going against him or anything getting shut off well now hes not calling or texting or emailing or driving by to even ask how his son is even tho during my whole pregnancy he denied my son before he was even born. some people should not be able to have kids

I had just under 10 years of a great marriage.
Postpartum hit and my wife at the time changed personalities very rapidly. Within about 2 months, we were done.
It was the most difficult time of my life.
It took two years to complete the divorce. Throughout, she had major emotional swings and, of course, I'm to blame for it all.
I took great care of my daughter the whole while and did what I could for the future ex as well, regardless of how much she continued to trash me and say what an a-hole I was.
Every day, I stuck to doing the best I could to do the right thing.
It's been 2 1/2 years. Despite the hell I went through, I'm good. I don't need much. I have a great career, awesome friends, and the most amazing daughter I could ever ask for!

Throu-out the 7-10 mnths he went baby shopping, diapers, carseat the whole package... then when our son was born it all changed...... He got cold feet and walk outs on us..... he didnt even fight for custody... SO im a single mother but on the greater side of it i have my son everyday and every night i get to experience all the "first"........

cause the ex is mentally ill and I didnt know about till after the fact.
He cut himself, and made up a story for the cops that someone else cut him.
And to top it all off, after the divorce, he committed 3 attempts of armed robbery.
He was on a 3 Strikes and your out rule. 1) Got piss a** drunk with the roommate.
2) Found drugs in his pockets while doing wash. 3) Got piss a** drunk at a friends
house and was puking at 3am. 4) Lost his job same day I threw the S.O.B. out.
My kid & I have been better off without the deadbeat, sperm donor.

A control freak... I was never aloud to do anything with out first consulting with him...including going to the bathroom in my own house. He took every opportunity he could to verbally abuse me...hardly ever would say anything nice. He also felt like it was the woman's duty to raise the kids. He never changed diapers, did feedings, hardly played with them. After 7 years I said enough is enough and decided to divorce him.
