The women here seem to, lol, can be pretty frustrating, but doug, the silver lining, you dont want a woman who isnt good with the kids, they filter out the baddies. I'm unsure of my judgement,(lol why am I here?), but far more sure of thiers (the kids).

i personally prefer to daye guys with kids. for a few reasons but the most important ones are theya re more mature and responsible as well as they know wht needs to be done to raise a child and that helps us single moms alot when it comes to a man understanding.

It seems the last few women I have met, as soon as they find out I have kids thats the end.


Don't feel like the lone ranger on the women running as soon as they find out your are a single custodial dad. Kinda funny too with all the women who say they will/have/do date single custodial dads seems like it wouldn't be that hard to find a date but it sure is hard to even get a conversation going with them.

I am a single mother and have the same problem. I need to tell you that I admire you for raising your 3 children alone. It's a very hard job and I am proud of men that are dedicated to their children. I personally don't mind men that have children at all. None of us should be judged and we shouldn't be punished because we have children. Children are the greatest gifts to have.

I would love to chat more with you if you'd like. You seem like a nice man.

Join the club man. I am not even have custody of my son and as soon as I say the words ... I can't go out sat. cause I have my son sat night and sun. they don't ever want to talk to me again. That is time that I will never give up and if they don't like it **** em. But hey man keep your head up the right girl will come around and don't ever give up your kids cause there time is precious.


Ditto. In my experience the majority say no way straight off and the remainder run as soon as it gets in the way of their weekends.

Mind you I also work most weekends so thats a **** as well.

I agree whole heartedly with the author of this message....

Its so true about men basing their choices on appearances alone , instead of the type of person that the women is inside.
If you don't believe this then all you have to do is read the profiles of the men and see what type of women they are looking for. NEED I SAY MORE...................

I am sure that there are alot of men out there who have learned this lesson , the hard way shall we say. I think that sometimes they are more concerned with what every one else thinks , and they loose all focus on the real person inside.

Alot of men are missing out on a great relationship because of this stero-type attitude.

Wake up guys and smell the roses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since the only single dads are those single men whom have adopted a child, there are very few. There are lots of divorced & separated dads, quite a few with custody too. Exceptionally few single dads or moms.
I am a divorced dad with 2 kids I got custody of. I never had to ask anyone out, however I was asked out frequently ... always by single ladies without children who were younger then me. Never a problem. Never an issue!
Remember, a "Single Parent" does not know who the other parent is or has adopted.
A divorced or separated parent or a widowed parent does, so there is another parent around, even if they have little to do with the children or they haver died. But they are not a "Single Parent" in legal accepted terms. To say otherwise is disrespectful to the children and the other parent and you are fooling yourself and attempting to fool others.
Be up front with potential suitors and there usually is not a problem. It weeds aout those who don't like kids around et cetera.

Well let me just say that I am a single dad and have raised my son SOLEY on my own for the last 6 years and any woman that doesn't respect the fact that my son is always going to be there and he is always number 1 - well the door is in the same place as it was when u came in and just be sure u move a little quicker as you leave ;)
Guys!!! ... If a woman doesn't respect that you are raising kids on your own and accept that then don't waste your time and it actually goes for all the single moms out there as well with these same issues w/ men. These people have their opinion but in my opinion we are the most responsible and grounded individuals out there and are always the kind of guys you come looking for when all the bad ones have used you until you feel you have nothing left .... should have stuck with that single daddy ;) Best of luck to all single parents out there, i know how tough it can be but you are not alone!! Take care all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Single dad here.... 4 kids. From diapers to high school. My wife left me with a 3 yr old and a 16 yr old. Now it's up to me to wake up at 6 in the morning, get my 3 yr old up for daycare, go to work, work all day, come back and pick up my kid, go home and stare at the cupboards for something to cook. If I knew being a single dad was so hard, I may have been a little nicer to my ex. My life is hell. I'm tired, my kid is tired, usually falls asleep before I can make supper. Why would anybody date Me? When would I go out? If you are going to date a single parent, be prepared for a lot of issues. On weekends I have to drive an hour to trade kids, and see the other ones. I love my kids and I wouldn't give them up for anything, but the strain might kill me. I've aged 10 years in the past year. So if there are any single girls that like men with kids, here I am.

Same here. I am a single dad (sort of). When my ex and I split up three years ago, the deal was I took my daughter (now 5 yrs old) every other weekend and every Wednesday. As it is, I have had here at least one night of every weekend and every other day. Even last year over Christmas, I had here straight from the middle of November to the middle of January except for Christmas eve.

Now do not get me wrong, I love my daughter and would kill for this time with her, but I have absolutely zero "my time". I think in total I have gone on less then 4 dates in three years due to how much I have my daughter.

*sigh* ...

UMMMMMM, NO! I know how hard being a single mum is and it is very enticing to find a single dad. Of course I cannot speak for all women, this is just one opinion

I have to agree with you.
I have also found women and i mean most women do not want to know when they find out your a single Dad.
It's quite a let down.
But then again it would probably help if i were at least good looking. I'm not.
