| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 9/27/2007 4:26:07 PM | Well I've dated a lovely teacher for a year who had a little boy of nine years and a lady with two girls for five years. Both really wonderful women and we had some fun times and all the kids got on well (I have two kids myself). Both ladies are with someone else now but we still chat/text/email each other every so often. Some of the issues we faced at the time was that I have my kids at weekends and it is very important to me to spend time alone with them - so it made it harder to regularly see the love(s) of my life.
The kids are now 16 and really just rooting for me and quite independent and often say that they would rather I don't miss out.

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 9/29/2007 1:52:28 AM | | well I didn't read all the messages for this post because really who has time so Im sorry if this is a repetition. I've been finding that there are guys that are open to dating me even though I have children. There are men however who get freaked out by the idea, not sure why but I just think it means that they're not someone I'd want to be with anyway. Maybe they worry they have to give up their "freedom" if they date someone with kids, or they worry they're going to have to support them. I think it would be a good idea to get to know the mom first, see what's going on, and then make a deicision. I for one am not looking for a father for my kids, I look after them, their dad looks after them, and my life is far from over because have them. Any other insight would be cool though. | |

In my experiences, this situation makes it a lot easier for single parents to date. Dates and outings can be scheduled around the visitation schedule. You dont' have to find baby-sitters. You don't feel like to taking time away from your children when you're out.
Since I've started dating again in the last 6 years, with one exception, all the single mothers I've dated had "baby's daddies" who were involved in the child's/children's lives. The one "exception" was way too eager to introduce me into her child's life, so I quickly extricated myself from that situation. | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 9/29/2007 1:12:06 PM | Yes we do exist and its like how the world turns when this site is called plenty of fish.
It just takes time to find that match your looking for and takes some patience like finding that diamond ring or gold bracelet you always want and work awhile to earn for the reward. I think men like myself get scared when a woman has kids where we(men) think to ourselves "I wonder if she would have a child with me someday" That is how I think most men think and goes from their with other questions. I myself would not mind finding a woman with kids and build a friendship. I enjoy kids and would love to meet women with kids and feel its a good challenge for both parties. Like take a test drive of how you both are compatible,what you both like to do, willing to be there for each other and for the child to know the new person in their life. If anyone would like to write to me I would be happy to listen and write to you to build a friendship. | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 9/30/2007 11:29:07 AM | | I know exactly how you feel. I have an 8 year old son, who I have looked atfer for 5 years as a single mum. He has a dad, doesn't need another one. I have dated someone who really likes me and I like him loads, but he doesn't like the fact that I have got a son. What is a girl to do? He could be my soul mate, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen. It does baffle me! Good luck anyway x | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 11/15/2007 8:46:15 PM | | yes we do. I am currently seperated from a wife who had 4 kids of her own, and prior to our marrige we had a son together. To make a long story short she kind of went nuts or playing gamesand ends up choosimg to live in a mission so she can date. and of course cared nothing about the kids. So I am doing the right thing I have them all and have become the primary cre provider for them all. So no I am in limbo. But I feel good about it and they are beautiful kids. So now I ask are there any women that date men with kids | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 11/16/2007 6:11:43 AM | and again here is another father with a full time son, who dosnt get time off for good behaviour, and i also cant seem to find a woman who is interested in dating me as i have a child, so this argument is not one sided. im sure there are plenty of men and women out there who would indeed be interested, alas i just cant find them. ahh well back fishing  | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 11/16/2007 8:54:30 AM | | Sure they do. Single dads have more in common with a woman with kids than they do with a woman without kids. However, there is no denying that kids complicate the dating scene. It is a good idea to wait till you know someone fairly well before introducing them to your kids. Kids of divorced parents have enough to cope with without being expected to be nice to everyone we have the hots for. It is common for young children to fantasize about their parents reuniting, also. So dating and sex become a little more complicated but it's certainly doable and can be very satisfying in every respect. In the early stages of a relationship, you can arrange dating and romantic times for when the kids are away, perhaps visiting their other parent, relatives, friends etc. | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 11/22/2007 10:30:00 PM | | Hi shedevil, Yes some men will date women with kids. However if you do find a guy that stops dating you when he finds you have kids conider yourself lucky as he is not a person of good moral character. I am a divorced father of a son that is 14 and I see him very frequently. The problem I find is not if the woman has children but the honesty of the woman. | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 11/25/2007 4:14:09 PM | Hi, guess maybe i'm the exception to the rule. I have three kids, and never seem to have problem with dating men. Always been a steading stream of admireres - some definately not wanted - have had bf and one husband ( passed away 7 yrs ago) and they been great with the kids. Have a 3yr old little girl and yep have a bf and he loves her. Got to be honest here, but i did ask a past bf what the attraction was as i had kids and his reply was 'A single mum is more mature and more fun.' meaning i happy to be at home with him than out partying with my friends. ( yes we did go out too) Keep looking shedevil, they are out there. Merry Christmas  | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 11/25/2007 4:26:47 PM | | I would date a woman that has teenagers for sons or daughter, currently i have 2 teenage daughters myself, its an adventure, but its something that i look forward to, plus dating someone that has teenagers would not only help me, but we could help each other in the process... there has never been a one way street in that department (although my kids dont have a mother to assist them) so its the daddy that raises them... with old family morals.. | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 11/28/2007 1:55:46 PM | I have dated some wonderful Women with Children, I actually count that as a quality in looking for my soul mate, I have 4 kids of my own and if she doesnt have any parenting skills then she most likely isnt going to be good with my kids.
It sounds kind of shallow but this is very important to be because I love my babys and they deserve the best and I am the one that has to give them the best :o) | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 12/1/2007 8:46:35 PM | I believe they do but just like Responsable Mothers Responsable Fathers tend to stay at home and ensure the safety and well being of their offspring and Sacrifices are what comes with parenthood as do the pleasures and heartaches,single or otherwise.Of course I'm biased I'm a single dad too 3 lovely teenage daughters.We do fine they love me and I love them. | |

| do men actually exist that date women with kids?? Posted: 12/1/2007 8:58:07 PM | | I used to date single mother's but not anymore. A single mom needs tp prove sje does not need me for a wallet and is looking for mode than someone to help her raise her kids. It is a lot to take on..too much potential liability. | |
