Posted: 7/25/2007 2:08:54 PM | yes sassifrazz you are right it is a matter of personal preference. I also think its because of stereotypes as well. All single parents are not looking for Mothers /fathers for their kids. We all don't have crazy exs that meddle in our lives forever. We don't all need someone to take care of us.
While I'm have to admit dating a single parent can be difficult because of time constraints. I certainly don't consider my kids baggage either as i've been told before. The way i look at it is a lot of single men and women miss out on wonderful potential mates/ dates because they can't get past the fact that they have kids | |

Posted: 7/26/2007 7:24:17 PM | | Hey, if I knew this part on POF existed, I would have written in it before hand. I know exactly how hard it is to find a good man that will date a woman that already has children. I am a 28 year ols mother of two beautiful daughters 8 years old and 8 months old. Have had two serious relationships my whole life and somehow things just did not work out because they were irresponsible fathers.. Thats as far as I am going to go with that one.... I have been wanting to be with a level headed, smart, man that has children of his own, but who also does not have children of his own but willing to except the fact that when you get me, you get my babies too.. Its the whole package or no deal... I need an attractive straight-forward, right up front, responsible man that will accept what i have to offer and accept the fact that I have children, so where are these men hiding ? | |

Posted: 7/26/2007 7:27:51 PM | | You are exactly right.. you hit the nail !!! men and woman miss out on that one person that may be just for them just becauseof the fact that we have children and they choose not to accept it.. well whats good for the goose is good for the gander i say... People let too many good things pass by them cause they are too busy looking at the things that may interfere with them having a good time and partying, yet there's a way around everything when you sit down and think about it... | |

Posted: 7/26/2007 8:56:35 PM | heh,
,,,,children are a blessing! I dont get it?
Why is it so hard? Heh, there were many times when I spent more hours with my date's kid than her. LOL.
,,,of course the poor soul is "KONKED out" after a long day, but hey,,, one must understand the single mom, yes? There will be days when one has the opportunity for "alone time". Patience for single mom good men. Patience.
Or am I wrong?
Much love to all | |

Then maybe you need to look for men who are about 10 years + older than you, men who have already had children. Could be men in their 20's want to start from scratch, not have a ready-made family?!? | |

Posted: 9/10/2007 9:42:21 AM | I think what scares many men away is they do not want to take on the financial responsibility for another man's children.
I would date a woman with children, even go so far as to marry them or continue in long term relationship. Children are a treasure and can add joy to a relationship if they are not out of control.  | |

Posted: 9/10/2007 10:32:25 AM | | I agree many should see the children as friends and not baggage. However some bad experiences dating single mother's can turn men away from wanting to date anymore single women with kids. So blame the ones who use men for why it is hard for you to get a date. | |

Posted: 9/10/2007 3:18:15 PM | | I am a single dad of 2 and I love kids and I would never second guess dating a woman that has kids as long as she like me for who I am and my kids like her I don't have any problems with that. I love to go out and get dirty with my kids and go camping with them. We like to go play at the park. I don't make a lot of money and I have two kids those are my down falls that I have. I have a lot of love to give and I know how to treat a woman with the love and respect that she deserves as long as I get the same in return. I like to be romantic and cuddle up on the couch to a good movie. I like to go out at night and look up at the stars and candlelit dinners and moonlit walks, but I can not seem to find that special somebody for myself and my children. Before I had my kids full time I had women calling me and I was going out a lot but now all of that has changed and I don't understand why. | |

Posted: 9/10/2007 7:56:25 PM | | I prefer to date woman with kids to be honest.I am a father of three and I have full custody also, I guess I can ask the same question,because I am having a really hard time finding a woman to date a man with 3 kids. | |

Posted: 9/11/2007 4:01:06 AM | | I really feel that looking for someone a little older is the way to go. Men that have children seem to understand if something for the children has to come first occasionally. It dosen't turn into a fight over your time | |

Posted: 9/11/2007 12:12:52 PM | | I personally don't have kids but I don't really see a problem at all with dating single mothers. ..... I just don't want the drama of a dumb ex tho! Delt with it once before but I guess I scared him off. But the the point being that I just DON'T want to deal with that period!... | |

Posted: 9/11/2007 12:18:35 PM | ^^Dont we all have ex's at one time or another? Some who dont even have children have meddling ex's. They can easily cause drama too.
*dont answer, I know you are speaking of the other parent in the equation*
Just pointing out that the 'ex drama' is getting really worn out and stale. | |

Posted: 9/16/2007 2:16:48 PM | | So far I haven't had trouble finding guys to date. Being open minded, yet knowing ahead of time what kind of fun you are looking to have is important. When I go out, I want to have fun, because I only have one night a week without the kids. I'll ask guys to come with me to do what I want to do; dance, take a yoga class, see a play that I want to see ... eat what i want to eat. They are out there, it's a matter of being assertive, fun spirited and knowing how to make a man feel like he's great and a real gentlemen for having the spirit to be his best for me. Try asking a guy out, and having a fun plan. | |
