☆ I've been living in Spain for 12 years. I've stopped dating locals because too much gets lost in translation.

"Say something to me in Spanish," said my date in the small Catalan city where I've lived since 2016. It's an inevitable part of the first date scenario I've come to hate while dating in Spain. Navigating the apps with my level of Spanish is easy, and I can even manage whole dates. But it wasn't the first time I've been mocked for speaking Spanish in a supposedly romantic context. Debating something complex in Spanish is beyond my language level, but I also know I'll sound rude if I disagree using the blunt language tools I do have.

He ended the relationship by text message and I never heard from him again. download the app Email address Sign up By clicking “Sign Up”, you accept our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy .

I was still reeling when, half an hour later, he'd taken his backpack and sent that devastating text message.

☆ I'm a single mom. I date — but I don't date single dads.

honeyhousephotography.comI started dating men without childrenThe answer has been to date men without children, which I've found to be easier, as I only have time to date when my children are with their father. AdvertisementI prefer to keep dating simpleIn the five years since I've been single, I'd say a third of the guys I've been interested in have been single dads, and two-thirds have not. After deleting the dating apps a few years ago, these days I only date men I'm already friends with — even if they live in other countries. I've found that they tend to be more casual in terms of relationships than single dads who are usually searching for a life partner. I'd rather my dating life was simple.

☆ I've been an expat for 20 years. Facebook has been at the center of both the best and worst parts of my life abroad.

At that point, I could see that the problem wasn't Facebook. Those Facebook groups gave me a real writing career that has allowed me to stay afloat through single motherhood as an expat. The advice I get from Facebook groups is often better and faster than I get from the accountant I have on retainer. Sometimes, my Facebook expat network and work collide, like the time I bought a secondhand kids' bike, and the seller's husband became my favorite content writing client ever. AdvertisementIf I moved again, I'd join a few Facebook local groups with the word "expat."

Nicola Prentis was loving her life in Spain when she and her London-based partner got pregnant. They decided to raise their family in Spain but life there became less fun with a baby. After they split up, she wasn't legally allowed to move home to the UK, but has made peace with it.
