I don’t know how this works

QUESTIONING

Hi everyone.
Apologies if I have done this wrong, I am a bi sexual man and have been open about it to some close friends (they have either left or been very supportive. I’m thankful for who I have around me. I am struggling to talk to people ( I struggle with daily “chat” as I’m very much to the point. unless it is work based, then I can explain the worlds end to bennifit then if that makes sense? I work in sales a deal with “problems all
Day” . Call me an introvert? I don’t know.) I have a 1 yr old daughter me and the mum are on good terms in respect to our baby and what we want is the best for her but it’s has been a good 2-3 years since the “dating scene” was even on my mind.
As I was hoping things would work out.. ( it has not, it’s all still civil) I’m looking for someone who is happy with children and I also hope understands the boundaries that me and the mum have put in place E.G. not being introduced to said child until the relationship is 1year in and going strong and also of met the mother ( we have both agreed this ) if your not interested in a child I completely understand as it’s a big sacrifice if you join a relationship with a previous child and it’s not you thing… I guess I’m rambling as I don’t know how I feel about posting this but hey ho I won’t learn unless I push the boat out? If that the correct term for it. I guess I just need someone to talk to and potentially start a new life as a new family with ties to a previous one which I will not sever as my daughter means the word to me, any advice or anyone who would like to talk please message me ( apologies for the long post, as I stated I don’t know how this works and this is my first post on Reddit ever!! Eeekkk
