Single mom here from the chicago area.

I'm having a difficult time finding someone to meet/date from here and could use some advice! I.e. anything local I can attend?

Just like many other 'dating' sites, this isn't Insta-mate, or pick-a-partner.

One thing I would say about your profile - it's a wall of text that I found very difficult to read.
It does have some pertinent info and that's a good thing IMHO.

And just like any sort of dating scenario, whether it's online or real life, you need to quickly sort the wheat from the chaff and move on to the next one.
Sometimes a compromise is necessary but you also need to know what you absolutely won't do and put that on your profile.
And just like real life, or any other site, you are going to need patience.... and LOTS of it!!

The fact that you're on a kink site is a Damacles Sword in many respects.
Firstly, 'nilla folk aren't likely to be on here - that limits the choice pool quite considerably.
Secondly, you are more likely to get a higher than average number of asshats trying their luck.
Things don't happen instantly.
Many have been here for months and even years before finding their ideal partner.
Did I mention you need patience??

Stick with it. Keep to your principles.
Best advice of all.... be true to yourself.

Oh, and fwiw, there are people that can slip into a role at the drop of a hat.
It doesn't always have to be super-slo-mo like swimming through treacle, so don't always think of that as a negative.

to the chat side of the site and good luck!

Have you found Fetlife yet? Its not geared toward dating, but its a great place to find all the local people and events. I would think in your area there would be a lot.

Ditto to the advice about patience, and the asshats. Just ignore them.

From one single mom to another, good luck!
