I’m a young mom who used to work from home. Recently, I’ve taken a pay cut and my husband’s job cut his hours down.

So we talk and we've gone out for a couple drinks and we've kissed and he's great and we'll flirt and we'll have lunch dates and so on and so forth.
BUT! He's got an ex....

By the age of ten, I ran away with the Boxcar children, fought alien species with the Animorphs, traveled through a wardrobe to Narnia and attended Hogwarts with Harry, Ron and Hermione. I was an orphan, a superhero, an adventurer and a witch.
Life at UC Irvine is rough without a car — especially if you’re just starting out as a freshman living in a dorm. Compound that with trying to get a handle on the real-life dating world and you’ve got a picture-perfect dilemma on your hands.
