My mother was a single parent(3 children) for maybe 4 years of my childhood. I can remember her bringing a few men home and they would bring food/cash so we could eat. They were in a relationship that they spent the money on food instead of going out on dates. Originally Posted by new2thescene

The money helped with the rent, and the food helped to make it more like a normal relationship for her.
