40 years ago a friend took me to the Parents Without Partners dance in Great Kills. It was there that I met many nice people, esp on the first evening I met the love of my life there.
He is someone who became my husband 7 years later. He has a son and I have a daughter, who were quite young at the time. We had the most beautiful relationship until he passed on August 25, 2021. We traveled the world and rode a motorcycle through the states.
I highly recommend meeting people here because there is no on line lying or bar hopping. It is a good organization, esp for younger people who have small children. They meet other children in the same situation.

Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Family Services, Human Services, Single Parent Agencies
Mission: Parents Without Partners provides single parents and their children with an opportunity for enhancing personal growth, self-confidence and sensitivity towards others by offering an environment for support, friendship and the exchange of parenting techniques.
Parents Without Partners was founded in 1957 in New York City by two single parents: Jim Egleson, a non-custodial parent, and Jacqueline Bernard, a custodial parent. As concerned parents, they felt isolated from society because of their marital status, and decided to form a mutual support organization. Following their first newspaper advertisements directed to Parents Without Partners", 25 single parents attended the first meeting in a Greenwich Village church basement. Later, media attention brought inquiries from all over the country.
Parents Without Partners, Inc. is now the largest international, nonprofit membership organization devoted to the welfare and interests of single parents and their children. Single parents may be male or female, custodial or non-custodial, separated, divorced, widowed or never-married."
