Busy Philipps Debuts as Milf on the Shilf for Dating App Stir to Help Single Parents Unwrap their Inner Milf or Dilf this Holi-dating Season

Busy and Stir, the leading dating app for single parents, are encouraging single parents to indulge a bit during this festive period with a little holi-dating and shilf-care. “Single parents are running themselves ragged to make things magical and special for their kids,” says Busy. “As a single parent you often feel depleted, and have to remind yourself that it’s ok to have a flirtation and meet someone for a drink to reconnect with the part of yourself that exists outside of being a parent.”

When it comes to dating here are Busy’s top green flags:

• Communication: Someone communicative is key. People can have great banter and be good at texting but having a vibe or spark with someone in real life is a whole different thing.
• Connection: Taking the time to match, connect and then meet up IRL, so there’s not an endless stream of texts and changed plans. Get out there and get to know people!
• Humor: People who are nice and funny that can genuinely make you laugh. Single parenting can be tough, so it’s important to have someone you can laugh with in the good and hard times.
• Interests & Hobbies: Having shared interests. If you love movies and discovering new music, you want to look for someone who’s into those things too, but it can also be as simple as finding someone who’s just as down to go get nachos!
• Boundaries:  Boundaries are vital in any relationship but they become even more so when dating as a single parent. It’s important to discuss boundaries up front and have an understanding of how each person handles the relationship with their children while they’re casually dating.

And finally when it comes to the holidays and “shilf-care”, Busy says, “Allowing yourself to feel vital, like an actual person, makes you a better parent. Then you don’t just feel like you’re at the service of little people who you are trying to grow.”
