Love life

Jennifer
I'm 31 years old. I have 4 kids. I never imagined myself being a single parent much less a single parent of 4 kids!! I've been a stay at home mom for 10 years. 
​My 4th child starts school this year. 
​I need some change!
​I need a social life!
​I want to get a job, but seriously! Who's going to hire someone who hasn't worked in 10 years?!?
​I think I want a relationship, but the last relationship I was in was extremely abusive. I'm scared to be alone with the opposite sex. 
​What do I do?
