hlskitten agony auntHey dont put yourself down! This guy probably really likes you because you are down to earth and a family person! No matter what job someone has got, its not always about money and status!

I will tell you a story which is completely true and bizarre, but it might help you see things clearer.

About 4 years ago i went to my doc feeling depressed because i had split from someone 3 months earlier. I was saying to him, its so hard to meet guys, and that i had joined a particular dating site. He said he used to be on the same site and he knew what i meant. I said all the things you just have, that i haven't got much to offer someone, i have kids, no great career or great house, and old banger of a car. He said sometimes a bloke can afford to do things for someone special and wants to share everything he's got with someone special and doesn't care what a woman has.

Anyway to cut a long story short, we ended up dating for a while, i changed doctors in the practise because obviously it wasn't strictly 'legal' and he showed me that it doesn't matter what someone has or does, they are normal people just like us!

He is now married to a woman who has 3 children and is very happy! All the guy wanted in life was someone to love and someone to love him back. And isn't that what we all strive for in the long run?

Chill out and enjoy what you have and dont sell yourself short because you can bet your life this doctor isn't interested in someone thats after his money or a shallow person, he's after a companion that he loves, whether they live in a mansion or a council flat.

Oh sweetie....He isn't slumming it, and don't think of yourself in that way. You are a wonderful person to raise your children by yourself, and very brave to do so. This man should feel blessed that someone of your high caliber would give him the time of day. You are the catch!! Best of luck Sugar Booger!!
