{{{{A single mom won't give me the time of day because I am not a father nor been married...love that!! WTF? }}}

That's too bad!! I don't have a problem with single men with no kids nor been married. There are single moms out there that think your a good catch.

Well from my experiences, it seems they all say the same reason. "You don't know what being a parent is like" or "You may want kids" or "You have not had the same life experiences as a single parent has"
Sure those comments can hold water IF it is true about the guy who wants to potentially date her. But why make those assumptions immediately I ask?
Basically the assumptions are made before knowing who I was.

Does that mean I cant make a baby?


God lets hope not. And no matter how many babies you "make" you will never be a woman.



Well from my experiences, it seems they all say the same reason. "You don't know what being a parent is like" or "You may want kids" or "You have not had the same life experiences as a single parent has"


The same reason for what? For not wanting to date a man without children?

Well maybe if you keep getting the SAME negative response from women you go after YOU should try changing the women you are going after. And maybe they are just trying to let you down easily...cause those sound like those kind of excuses. The kind someone makes because they don't have the balls to say "I don't want to date you" . So instead they put the blame off on someone else (children or lack thereof) to save feelings.

I talked to a single mother who wanted more children, and didn't date single dads because in her experience, they don't want anymore kids so would not be a good match.

BTW I'm trolling here b/c I started dating someone who has kids. Being raised by a single mom I have some perspective, but trying to gain more.

All I can say is, there's a LOT of passion on this forum.

This is a very valid reason to NOT get into a relationship with someone but I don't understand why someone would go on "their experience" rather than base it on the individual. Everyone is different. You could date 5 single dads who don't want kids but the next 3 do.

Most single mothers prefer men without kids. Should birds of the same feathers flock together?
The are ruining it for the unchilded singles.


Oh, now I know what the problem is. You are so insecure that your afraid some single dad like me will meet an "unchilded single" and ruin your chances of a meet up. or some single mom will meet an " unchilded single" and ruin it for the rest of the single women without kids. Don't worry any woman that would date you is not my type.

titosmith,

You contradict yourself fairly often. Go get a life or a job and spend less time on here trying to find anything wrong with people you can.

Oh and I suggest going somewhere unpolluted so you can clear your head of all the smog that goes with living in the Toronto area.

You hate single mothers, you have said we are damaged goods because we choose to leave a bad relationship....

Dunno, maybe some counselling is in order for you to get over your issues....

You have an honest mans syndrome. Someone who is honest assumes everyone is honest or in your case everyone can/is be a wonderful single dad


well you got one part right, in that I am Honest. But to say I think everyone is honest is just stupidest think I have ever heard. Because I doubt your honesty and many on here. I think you and some others may honestly believe the crap you spew onto the screen and thats sad. And yea I do believe that everyone can be a wonderful single parent, IF THEY WANT TO. The problem is to many are hung up on their hatred of their ex to be a good parent.

No thanks Tito,

You are far from my type, don't like the judgemental ones.

I am having no more kids with anyone, I was smart and took care of that with getting the tubes tied.

Maybe you should have some nasty words for the men like my ex who tell all the new girls he picks up he had a vasectomy, and you wouldn't believe how many fall for that one, to the point I get emails from them telling me my son is not his??? They are too stupid to see him for what he is. I did and left over a year ago now.

Your opposing idea is that single mothers suck azz and that they don't!

/sigh. I'm done arguing with you.You make absolutely no sense and I believe are posting to win brownie points. Hence the differences in your beliefs. Please before you actually do start dating man up and stand for what you believe in. No one wants a man that can't hold true to their own beliefs. I have more respect for the ones that point blank call single mothers out and hold steadfast to that belief then I do for you. Your posts are meaningless and you have shown time and time again that you offer no substance to any of the topics. You really are just a waste of human life and brain cells. Good day sir!!

Oh please.I'm not so much as flustered at Tito's posts. If you followed any of my posts you would know that people like him are basically the only reason I still come on POF. It's not like you get sound advice on here. Nope. I enjoy arguing and it's a stress reliever telling people what big douchbags they are. It allows my b!tchyness to come out in a safer environment with people I couldn't give a flying flip about rather than on my clients or people that piss me off IRL. It helps anyways.

I still want to know what being a republican has to do with anything or what chillean wine is.

Could that post be more poorly written?! WTF are you trying to say?

And as I said....you are a waste.

PS- I doubt you were ever really taken seriously to begin with.

So, your a success story... good for you.... :)

I really don't get what the big deal is with dating a single mom. If you don't like kids then don't date us. I married a man with kids way back when. I didn't have kids then. If I didn't have my daughter now I would still date a man with kids. This topic really needs to die...

I made some crass comments that are almost retard but generally I reflected views of some people.

Call me Glen Beck of POF.

Don't even TRY to compare yourself to Glen Beck! Just cuz he says things that you don't want to hear doesn't mean he's "retarded".... Sometimes the truth hurts but we all need to hear it.

To answer the question before it's asked, yes I am a Republican and I'm PROUD of it!

How about single fathers? Why don't women like to date them? Or are women just fine with that? Or maybe men don't:
have creepy exes
enjoy double income households
have trouble juggling kids and dating
have bratty kids that wont listen to us
have baby mommas cuz they haven't figured out how not to fall in when they see "spread legs" seriously, that term is so stupid and 15th century
or trash talk their exes , how messy they kept the house, only cooked spaghetti every meal, blahblahblah

IM A SINGLE MOM AND I AND MY CHILDREN ROCK---and you'll never know!
