Hello all. I am a single mother of 3 and looking to start dating after 1-2 years of being separated. I realize I have NO idea of what is normal and not.. and I either feel I'm too naive or way too uptight about the relationships I have about men.

I need help!!!!

I tend to receive a bit of male attention, especially from men I have been friends with in the past or people I meet from my school/work. I end up giving my number after an exchange and it seems like every man I speak with, mentions sex pretty quickly after we begin to chat. I just find it disrespectful and honestly quite intimidating. I dont know how to respond, I dont know if it's just in men's nature to be this way... the most recent man I met seemed so down to earth.. then sent an unexpected naked photo to say good morning. WTF!?

What am I doing wrong to be encountering this with every single guy I speak with? What is 'normal' and what is disrespectful when talking about sex? I'm so confused....
