There's nothing wrong with a woman who has children. I dated a beautiful woman once with 3 kids -- 13, 16, 18. Her family is beautiful. Her youngest didn't really like me at first. All I ever wanted to be was her friend and she came around after some time. When we broke up, I felt that I lost 4 friends. In our last conversation, I asked her to say 'Bye' to them for me.

Hey, I am a single father of a ten yr. old boy whom I put first in all areas. I will only date women with children. Why? Because they already know whats up and how to be a parent there are no suprises for them or my son. BUT as you have all pointed out I do not get many dates women do not seem interested at all. Is it because we can cook, clean, budget, and run a house on par with them and we are different from most men and do not rely on our wifes/girlfriends to be our Moms and cook, clean and do our laundry? I am sorry I am not trying to be mean but I guess I know how all the single mothers feel and it does make you mad. I do not look at it as a competition but a partnership I am one of the few that cook, clean,do laundry, and run the house and be a help and make life better. take a look.

Yes men do date women with kids. A woman woth kids is not a bad thing ever.I myself have dated a couple Single moms in the past. It makes thingsa alittle different because there is another soul that you might get a connection with and you wouldnt want to hurt that child. Thats the only thing that makes it hard but nothign good in life is easy except sleeping.

i've never had a problem dating tho i have a daughter (now 14). But then again i'm more picky about who my daughter meets, so if i date she doesnt meet everyone i date unless i'm serious about a person. And those that have actually met her like her sometimes more then me

I guess some men just are'nt man enough to take on that kind of a responsability ,so you probably don't want them in your life anyway . Might save ya a little heart ache by not having to deal with the sportsman as well . 3 cheers for you gals that are makin it on your own !! you' ll get the real love .

Yes, I would RATHER date a women who has kids because my 6 and 8yr. old love to play with other kids and it would be great company for them...Also, single moms are so affectionate and selfless!

I am up front when I meet someone, I say, hey you know, I have a daughter. At first they're like oh, I love kids and yadda yadda yadda, then three months down the road they decide that they can't do it anymore because I have too much baggage. One guy actually said to me that I spend too much time with my daughter and not him, so that's why it's not gonna work out! Can you believe that?! So, to answer the question, I don't know, I haven't met one but I'm told they do exist...it's just finding them that's the problem.

There are a lot more men who will date a woman with kids, no matter what age, than vice versa.

Perhaps it's where you live, OP. I'm a single mom with a four year old and in the year and a half I've been dating since the split I've only ever had one guy tell me he wouldn't date a single mother. Most guys are cool with it. Decent men are willing to deal with the logistics of dating a single mom.

I know they are out there. I've had the experience of dating a few. The problem I've run into is that the guy wanted to be my son's father. And you know what.....my son is 15 and has been without a father for that long. He doesn't need someone that wants to be his father now. But he would accept someone that wanted to be his friend. There is a huge difference there. My son and his feelings come first!

I don't think that 15 years old is too old to need a Father. It might just be possible to be Father and friend. Everyone needs a father no matter how old you are!

Hi everyone. I have not been on this site for a long time, but I am finding the same problem. Also I am finding that men (not all) are looking to make up for time lost when they were in a longterm relationship. I have a great career and do not need anyone's money. To date I have lost more money to dead beat boyfriends then I can count. I have kids, some at home and one on her own and expecting my first grandchild. Well now I really have problems, not only do I have kids, but now I am going to be a grandmother. I wish someone would tell me how to do this because it is not as easy as when I was a teenager. Remember the days when you liked a boy in school and when he asked you out, you were automatically a couple, well those days are gone but it would be nice if this was a little easier. I have two of my own companies and work full time for a firm, I dont have alot of time to date, but meeting people would be nice, even female friends, lol. So please tell me where you go to meet people other than a bar. Anyway thanks for letting me vent. I hope to hear from someone.

Yes we are out there but for me personally i would date without even knowing the woman had kids.The first thing that happens is you get attracted somehow to the woman and in my eyes the kids are the bonus that comes afterwards when your sure its going to work out with the woman.Alot of you may think im crazy and it may explain why I cant seem to find a woman for myself but I would want to date for about 6months before I even brought the kids into the picture.My reason for this time frame is I have a 9yr old girl who adores both her parents even though she knows we couldn,t get along living together,and no matter how long it is before you date someone as soon as you get your kids involved they will feel like your trying to replace the other parent.So in my mind the longer you wait(if the kid is old enough to know better) the better it is for the children.I may be way off base here and sure I will hear about it if I am,but believe we should think like kids when making choices that will affect them.

I personally wouldn't date a woman with a child, but I do know that there are men out there. The only reason why I wouldn't is because I am young and would like to begin my own family when I'm older. Now I ask this question, because it never occurred to me until I read the O/P. I'm wondering if there are women out there who are interested in dating a man with children. To be honest, I haven't heard of that scenario either.

Moreno1982 I respect your view on not dating women with children cause you want your own. I thought the same thing when I was younger. I kept meeting these chics who were fixed and I wanted a kid too. You can't knock a man down for wanting his own flesh and blood. I had to finally meet someone who had never had kids. One word of advice though, don't let time slip by cause the next thing ya know you'll be 40 years old and no kids yet!

Hi, yes it is very hard to find a guy that wants to take on the responsiblily of helping to raise someone else's child! I too have waited to look(my daughter now been a teen) ,it's still hard but I hope that there are guys out there that would even want to combine families! It's hard either way if yr a mom or dad and single , and trying to raise yr child/ren and trying to have a social life too! Well shall we all have good luck in finding someone!
