i missed being single but happy with my family...

Hi danix. I also feel the same. My friends have been doing well with their career and have been going to different places. They seemed to be very happy with their life as single. I also feel envy because I can't go wherever I want because if I want to, I need to have a bigger budget to include my wife and kids. But, I am also very happy because I am now settled. I have found someone who will be there with me. I am thinking about my friends, they aren't sure what kind of person they will be with soon. What makes me so happy is knowing that when I go to vacation, I won't be alone. I have a family of my own to whom I can share my problems and happiness. I also have enough idea now what kind of children I have and have proven myself as a good parent. Above all, when I and my friends are all old, I have older children to care for me as compared to their's.

I understand that.. but family always has to come first.. its also good for us to go out with friends when we have family. Just not all the time. Have a great week there...

Maybe you got married at early age that's why you felt that envy and bit of regrets...For me. family is family.. and that is irreplaceable.. maybe you are in that present situation right now because that is your destiny.. but I still believe that nothing is overdue in this world when it comes to happiness and memories.. meaning you can still enjoy life like single along with your responsilibity with your family. For me, getting married and having your own kids should not be a hindrance to do what do you want to do in your life..Do not forget yourself, find time for yourself and for your wants...

i do feel it sometimes.. i remember the days where i can go wherever i want together with my friends.. i can buy anything i want without worrying too much.. those were the days i live my life freely and i missed it but now i am much happier with my family though i am now a stay at home mom i am doing everything to make my life productive.. i love my family more than anything in this world...

I do miss being single. It means no respinsibilities, no kid to attend to and all I think about is myself. And I can do whatever I want and go anywhere without having to worry that I'm leaving someone behind. But of course, I don't regret my decision of starting my own family. There may be perks of being single but I won't trade my family for that :)

FAMILY comes first every time. Your kids need you and for me being with the kids are always the best feeling ever, where you go to a park or go somewhere. I miss my mother and father so much which is in abroad, and i wanted to thank them and talk to them in person but i don't have enough money to go there, we usually see each other every year that usually last about 1-2 months. We use skype and other things to communicate. So you're a very lucky mother. because your kids see you everyday. Send more time with your kids, because in the future, those kids will have their own life. But i know your kids will be the one that will take care of you when you grow old. ^^

Well, in our lives there are things that needs to be prioritized. It happens that we have our family especially kids who needs our attention most of the time. I am a happy single mom (for many years now)- and I can say that- I can still manage to hang out with friends while attending with my kids. It's just a matter of time management- but if your kids are still small- I know it is not easy to manage time with friends and kids at once.
