Posted: 8/22/2005 5:57:36 PM | | I am a single mother of a beautiful one year old girl. I never asked to be a single mother it just happened that way. I am not looking for a father figure for my daughter ....she has a father. I am not looking for a man to take care of me because I do a great job myself. I am just looking for a friend for me . It is so easy to get caught up 100% in your childrens life and not interact with any other adults. But then you burn out to easy. Why should I be be less of a women or "un-dateable" because I take care of my responsibility? | |

Posted: 8/23/2005 3:56:01 PM | | As i am a single dad...i absolutly would have no issue dating a single mom, but i would not want to be a replacement for her chidrens father, i look at it from the same perspective as most, single mom= hard working, responsible, beutiful, experienced, smart, inquisitive, diciplined, i could go on and on, so thats what i think these are great attributes, in my books anyway. | |

Posted: 8/23/2005 6:49:55 PM | If any on here know me... from the forums... I have stated over and over, I do not mind single moms a bit... I enjoy them for a variety of reasons... I don't mind being "dad" and don't mind sharing... kids are great, and can make relationships wonderful... there are dangers (it not working out and being attached to the kids... )....
Maybe I should add that to my profile... Love Kids, think single moms are great...

| I am wondering if being a nice guy is the right thing to do anymore
Posted: 3/17/2006 8:09:38 PM | The same could be asked of men. It seems like all I have met are players or insecure desperate men.  It would be nice to meet a man that is nice, fun loving, independent, happy, secure in himself, showers daily, employed and doesn't live with his mother. (There is a reason Failure to Launch is the #1 movie right now.) But to answer your question, yes there are still some real, family oriented, sexy, attractive, sensual, women who are honest.  So good luck and hang in there.

Posted: 3/19/2006 12:57:29 AM | I've had one experience with a single mom, long relationship that eventually failed because of the ex. He had weekends with the kids and he would posion them against me. He would get them to tell lies to the mother about me. They told her that I had hit them and she broke it up with me. I cared for her and I swore to her with all my heart that I never did and it was a lie. I honestly thing I would've been happy spending the rest of my life with her.
She later realized it was the ex posioning the kids as they did it guys she was dating after me. I guess being the first guy she dated after her breakup didn't help. She did later apologize to me for everything, but I was with someone else when that happened.
So I guess another part that we men worry about is the dynamics with the father. | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 7:35:49 AM | PLEASE - go back to your cave and stop giving men a bad rap
think about what YOU can offer her to make you worth HER while - which at this point is not a lot
How can some men be so selfish that they dare to think that they deserve to have their needs fulfilled? They should just shut up and give women what they want!
Sorry man, but my role in this life is not just being the life-support system for somebody else, nor the goal of my life is to find some woman with a wrecked life and save her from her own bad decisions. I deserve a lot more.
So yes, before dating a woman, whether childless or single mother, I will think first and foremost in me and my needs. If I'm going to give a lot, I expect to receive a lot, too. | |

If a woman asks for a lot, she will better have a lot to give, or she's in for a lot of dissapointment. | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 12:16:21 PM | | of course they do. Single moms can be wonderful creatures to behold. As with all human beings you will find average, good, better, bad and very sad..Being a nice guy is the right thing..for me anyways..just depends on what you mean by "nice guy." | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 1:02:37 PM | | Just met a single mom on POF and it really works when they have kids and you have kids cause we both understand the priorities in a relationship when there are kids involved. My kids love other people's kids, so that's never a problem. It also helps with the time that 2 adults can spend together cause if one party didn't have kids, when would that happen? | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 2:15:34 PM | | Yes, they do I have 2 children and am a full time college student and 31. I seem to meet alot of men the problem is I can meet them fine and they know I have two children. Then the problem gets to be they don't think I have time for them. Just be up front with the men. Also I know being a single mom it can be hard to keep ourselves up. Make sure you always do special things for your self. You a single mom and you deserve. I man is attracted to confidence. Just believe in yourself anmd if someone isn't interested because you have kids, forget him, you don't want to be around him anyways, because the kids are there to stay, men sometimes don't stick around. | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 8:16:07 PM | | i have asked several single mothers out and i have been told alot that they would but because i am a single father of a 12 yr old girl, they couldn't. i was once told that it is difficult to to split attention amongst an already made family and then her own children. there would not be any time for us. i feel like that is an excuse. i spend time with my daughter and my other two children(who live with their mother) and i still find time to date and try to find someone that i would like a relationship with. i know single mothers are discriminated against but now it is single fathers that are being discriminated against. | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 9:16:27 PM | I agree with you, I have never discriminated against a woman for having kids, but I have had women not date me because I my kids. I personally think that single moms usually( not always) just want to meet a single guy that doesn't have kids, but accept their kids. I don't think that it can happen. The only guy that understands a single mom is a single dad. You just can't have your cake and eat it too!  | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 9:27:11 PM | Parents without Partners you say?? i'll have to look into that one thanks!!
I have 4 great kids but i couldnt count the men who have said they wouldnt date me cause i have kids 24/7.. (only real time i have off is when my parents take them for a nite) or maybe thats just their excuse for other issues these men have with commitment and responsiblity.. so my advice to the ladies( and men) in the same situation .. dump them and smile cause your so much better off with a commitment phobic person  | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 10:24:34 PM | My mother had cake and ate it too...If you want to have cake, Have cake. If you want to eat it go ahead. Everyone is different. The right person for each family that is missing something/someone will come to pass. Everyone will be blessed. For different reasons. Whether a single man or a single father. Single mother or single woman. All individual.
Single mothers have been around for awhile. Alot of single mothers here with sons. Sons of single mothers would know or should know..even more than you lick...what it is like. Some of them are all grown up now and have individual choice to make.
I have dated both. I still find I go by my instincts and by some logic. I love cake just want to make sure if I am going to eat it it settles smoothly and does not make me want to vomit.
Sometimes its not butterflies it's actually nausea so listen to gut..just thought I would pass that on. | |

Posted: 3/19/2006 10:35:11 PM | just a lady..this is third time I have come across someone talking about parents without partners..will look into that..thanks..
To:I forgot your name I am sorry but you have a one year old daughter. You might want to check that out too. Your baby will just be a baby for so long. I understand feelings of wanting to talk with an adult or wanting to not forget your a woman..will never be a wearer of mom pants...that is okay...that is great in fact. Soak in motherhood and all the love you have around you. Your time will come and you will be a mother who has even more discerning taste than before and you will have taken care of your mind body spirit. | |

Posted: 3/20/2006 1:02:33 PM | | I was addressing the "does not date single moms anymore," I don't even know where vomit even came into the picture!? I would pray that a man does not vomit after dating a single mom. Cake is good and what even makes it better is when the whole family(single mom family or single dad family) helps make the cake!!! | |
