while i wish i could have chosen the father of my child im glad the real father wants nothing 2 do with us.
I am so sorry that you were sexually abused, but saying you are glad that your child's father doesn't want anything to do with his child is very selfish. A child's bond with their father is incredibly important. | |

Posted: 7/7/2009 2:11:48 PM | | I read that you have trouble spelling because of a mental block. I'm sorry for your tragedy. I have a head injury that which has made spelling very difficult for me, so please don't take this an insult but, as it is meant, an aid. I have found it to be helpful in comming across more intelligent in my postings. Use the following link, if you're unsure of the spelling of a word. http://www.merriam-webster.com/ It is American spelling of English words, but I hope it helps. | |

Why not get rid of the snake/reptiles and get that off of your profile...see what that does to increase male interest.
What's wrong with someone that likes snakes and reptiles. I had a 11' boa myself and have had several lizards as well. In fact I have many different types of pets. If you don't like reptiles, that's fine, but don't think that just because you don't that nobody else does. | |

Mozilla Firefox has a spell-checker built-in. I am dyslexic and it helps me recognize words I spelled backwards by underlining misspellings with a red dotted line. | |

Posted: 7/9/2009 11:17:05 AM | Nothing is inherently wrong with snakes and reptiles I suppose...seems to me there are a lot more people who would be accepting of a dog or cat for instance...my intent was simply to advise that, to the best of my knowledge, most of us are not interested in having snakes and reptiles as pets...moreso if we have young children which the poster indicates she wants (e.g. single dads) and so if you want to attract more single dads I think you will find there are many more men who would be interested in a woman free of the reptiles...saw a documentary showing a large snake fighting and killing an alligator the other day...not the kind of pet I would want around my kids !!
For your info the state of Florida now has, apparently, in excess of 30,000 python type snakes in the Everglades as a result of pet owners getting tired of them and setting them free...they are growing rapidly in population and apparently are moving closer to civilization and are killing small wildlife, cats and dogs...again not the type of pet I would want around children...guess it all depends on your priorities. | |

Posted: 7/11/2009 6:54:34 AM | Im a single dad who is actually the resident parent. I find it hard for women to accept that.
It may sound big headed but I had no problems before when it came to dating but it seems that my daughter makes all the difference to most women. I wont be bitter about it because afterall, would I rather be with someone who wont accept my daughter or someone who will?
Ive never had a problem dating single mothers and still dont. The only problem I ever had was one single mother obviously dated me to get the ex jealous. It caused a bot of friction so I walked away. | |

I wish more women were like that. But like the above posters have said, most women, that I have met, aren't interested in a man with childern. Then you have the time management issues that comes with being a single parent. My dating pool is smaller, but the women I meet are a higher quality of woman.
Oh as far as pythons. There was a parent that had to stab his constrictor because it tried to consume his baby. The child died, the serpent lived. | |

Posted: 7/11/2009 8:19:13 PM | I'm a single father with a 12 year old daughter (with me full-time.)
A lot of women are VERY uncomfortable with this and the fact that I'm a FULL TIME parent has killed a couple of potential relationships (e.g. they're divorced and have their kids half the time, or don't have them some weekend, and don't understand that I can't "dispense" with mine!)
I don't know if women find the same thing to be true with guys, but it is definitely an issue that I've run into before. If you're a single mom and want a single dad around, look me up - kids are welcome too of course. | |

Posted: 7/12/2009 11:36:02 AM | | I would be a better match if the man or woman had kids. I'm a single mom and to be honest i look for men that have children rather than not having them. | |

Posted: 7/12/2009 12:21:29 PM | drakkitten,
I'm feeling sort of sorry at the moment as you asked about a single dad and most EVERYONE is focusing on your spelling
Well, I'm sure you'll eventually find the right person for you but you don't need to go through the population of your country to find it either. For the time being I would suggest waiting for a while, focus on yourself and resolve your own issues before taking on a new one. I'm sure your girls would be much better off and feel better about themselves with a mom that is happy about herself and not so dependent on a man. When that happens, THEN you'll find the man your really searching for. Until then, your stuck with the type of man that has been abusive to you in the past! So, that said, get some professional help to better yourself first, then look!
Just my humble opinion. | |

Posted: 7/12/2009 12:49:22 PM | As a single mother who has sole custody of one child and joint of the other, I tend to not date a single dad if hes not the primary caregiver or if he only sees the child once in a while. I feel that the men Ive met who dont have primary or even joint custody dont understand how hard it can be to raise a child. And then the ones who dont bother to pay child support, yeah Im not going to stick around. Why would I think he could ever commit to me if he cant even bother taking care of his child? KWIM?
As for men who have primary custody, I will date them. They understand what I am dealing with. I dont typically date a man who is new to dating as a single father with a young child. I hate the drama and seems to follow.
My children do not meet men I am dating and I refuse to meet his kids until its something serious. To much confusion on the kids part IMO.
I also will not date a man if he would be okay with handing over his child to me so I can babysit often. Im not their mother and while I dont mind babysitting especially if it made it to the point where we live together, I have my own kids who need me and I dont drop my kids on others including my parents. Once ina while once the realtionship has taken off, fine, but not every day unless its what we have decided and we are living together.
Basically I keep looking for men who I am attracted to. If they have kids, fine as long as all the above requirements are met. I wouldnt seek out single dads just b/c Im a single mom, KWIM. | |

Posted: 7/13/2009 9:25:28 AM | Well I can tell you this much, I definitely aint into single mommys. Especially ones that have lousy spelling.
I have to admit that when I come across a young, unwed mother who spells like this, I immediately think "teen mother who didn't finish high school." I'm not saying every woman who is a young, unwed mother who cannot spell is actually a teen mother who didn't finish high school. | |
