I made a post here earlier. Anyways, I got a lot of responses but I realized, I get a bit of anxiety seeing a lot of comments and don't know what to say back. I tend to like my conversations more direct instead of an open forum with anyone and everyone being able to chime in. If you feel like making a statement, by all means. If you're looking to spark up a conversation, please DM me.

I've been single for just about 2 years now with both boys with me 99% of the time. It's been difficult not having much time to myself and when I do get that day or 2 when their mother takes them, all I do is sleep. I'd like to get out and make a friend or 2 but I generally don't like socializing. I've had bad experiences in the past with people.

One thing I didn't state in my last post, I have some health issues. Think of it as I'm almost always low energy with some pain and the occasional balancing issues (that's rare but happens) a lot have mentioned taking them out to the park or this or that. Right now the toddler makes it extremely difficult because he doesn't like playing on the playground. He likes to run off and get into everything he shouldn't and when I stop him he has a full blown tantrum. That makes it hard for me and less fun for his brother.

This is why I made the comment about the raft in that post. Doing all this alone and with my health, it's exhausting.

I think this is more of a rant than anything because I'm sure there's plenty who are dealing with similar situations. I tried posting in single parents but apparently I don't have enough karma..

It's been a couple years that I've been single and the kids are with me 99% of the time. I don't have a social life, it's just myself and them. I thinking it's taking a toll on me, or I'm just having one of those days(weeks?) the older one never listens about the toddler because they don't understand how to communicate and gets upset because the toddler can't. The toddler then throws a tantrum because it's like the older one is teasing or messing with the toddler. Then they both get loud and I get no help from their mother since she maybe sees them 1 or 2 days a month. Her choice.

Idk, just tired and having no one really to talk to about these things sucks. I feel like it's the 3 of us on a raft in the middle of the ocean. We have food and entertainment but they're arguing and there's no where for me to go to decompress.

Looking for friends that are from the US and play games.

I have 2 boys and I'm a stay at home father. The youngest is still a toddler.

I would like a friend that can help motivate me to do better with my projects like writing and play games with.

I play games sometimes but due to recent bouts of depression and stress, I mainly play modded Minecraft and hytale with my eldest son and started playing the demo for Vein. It seems interesting and I may get the full game. Also thinking about crimson desert. I play mainly on PC but I have a PS5 too.

btw, would be nice to find someone from the Midwest or somewhat local to me.

Looking for someone to talk to as my days are mainly with my kids.

My Interests are writing, gaming, movies, music, sometimes reading, and being creative even if I don't do anything with it.

Would be nice to have someone to play casual games with. The fine art of sarcasm is welcome as long as it's known that there's a difference between that and just being an ass.
