| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/2/2009 9:56:37 PM | | How would a single mom automatically be a leech? What if she doesn't NEED you but WANTS you there? Meaning, she doesn't need a man in order to live and pay the bills etc. Especially if the father is involved in the kids' lives. Then all you have to do is love the mom. Of course, its your house as well and your rules should be followed. But that is something you work out WITH your SO. Just like in a relationship without kids... | |

^^Umm because maybe alot of them are just straight up golddiggers? Sorry lady but I have no love for single moms. besides I wont go any farther than a one nightstand with them. For some of them, their only intent is to suck a guy dry.
I've seen this a number of times now, and some have even attempted to explain it to me. However, I still do not understand what it means. | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/2/2009 10:49:34 PM | Future...if some have attempted to explain this to you and you still don't understand , then I obviously can't help you. Don't bother..LOL
I know you have and I appreciate the effort. I'm so sorry that I'm having a hard time grasping this.
Do you mean they want a man to move in with them and pay all of their bills? But why would a man do that? I could see if they fell in love and got married and had another child or something.... | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/2/2009 11:18:30 PM | Men who choose not to date a single mom might miss out on meeting the woman of their dreams....
If a man is not attracted to women with children....How in the Hell can a single mom be the woman of his dreams?! That's the same as a man not being attracted to overweight woman and someone telling him that he may miss out on the woman of his dreams by choosing not to date women who are overweight.
What if she doesn't NEED you but WANTS you there?
Well that's a given, we know that you want a man.
Especially if the father is involved in the kids' lives.
You say this like it's a good thing. No rational thinking single man wants to be part of a relationship that includes another man and his children.
Then all you have to do is love the mom.
That type of thinking just might pull him in. He can ignore the kids on their birthdays, not have to worry about giving them gifts on Christmas, doesn't have to bother with attending their school functions and not have to worry with you when the kids get sick! | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/3/2009 12:33:25 AM | Wow! Some people are starting to get pissy at me in their replies!
I guess I can't blame them, though.
I'd be angry if I looked like an English Bull Terrier in the face too. :P If I had to face the fact that my eyes are way too far up on my face and I have a bigger chin than Jay Leno, it'd make me cranky as well. Luckily I am attractive, so I can be my normal good natured, too-kind self. ;)
That said, I really like my child-free, chick magnet life. POF in my area has some slim pickings indeed, but there are advantages to being me.
For some reason I have noticed a trend where really ugly women don't like me, and really hot women do. Like... on contact. Perhaps it has something to do with the aura or energy I give off.
Anyway, I have talked to a few attractive women lately who told me that they had kids, and upon learning of that fact and me being disinterested, most were cool with it. The ones who took offense got asked a rather pointed question by me as to what the hell they were doing at a bar or club with a little one at home. They liked that even less.
So anyway, the moral of this story is calling a hot guy fat does not make a lady any less butt azzed ugly.
In fact, where's bosox at? I need to see one of her posts so I can wash the afterimage out of my eyes. | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/3/2009 2:57:08 AM | Aww soldier. You really do think highly of yourself don't you? Well good for you cause no one else will put you up on that pedestal so go ahead and heave yourself up there. ~fab-mom~
^^^^I am thinkin soldier needs a boost to pee in the "big boy" urinals at the pub!! | |
|
| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/3/2009 3:05:23 AM | ^^^ ::scratching head::
Is this supposed to make any sense? Like, I don't know if this is an insult, or a cry for help....
Like, I can't take offense. I mean, you said you still depend on your mother... is she still your guardian?
I'm honestly curious.
Either way, I'm sure you have not needed help with any urinals from a very young age. You're very talented, I am sure.
.... lol
This is silly. I just got done with a 6 mile run so I am being silly back. | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/3/2009 5:13:30 AM | | i would definately have to say, maturity level, I don't if it's by a fluke or what... but the women ive met 35 years and younger (Not necessarily date, but been friends with, family etc etc...) dont have the same mindset as a mom would. If theres anything to me more beautiful in this world, itd be pregnant women, and to moms. Something just so radiant and bright about moms. Maybe I'm just weird... lol O_O Anyways, in turn, I'd take a single mom over an immature woman, anyday. | |

Philosophy forum.

There are some very intelligent folks on this site and some very deep thinkers.... | |

Well hanity, all I meant was that being a single mother does not make a woman more or less of a person, that is all. Personally, I could care less who dates whom and why....in my own life, having children has never been an issue for my dating life. If a man likes me, he likes me and since my children are not poorly behaved little hellions, he usually ends up liking my kids also. | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/3/2009 7:43:48 AM | I have to agree with soul. It doesn't bother me in the least that there are men who choose not to date single mothers. That is your choice and I wouldn't waste my time trying to convince you otherwise. I respect your decision.
We all have our preferences.
It's when your preference goes from "I don't date single mothers" to a gross generalization like "I don't date single mothers because they are fat/gold diggers/looking for a daddy" that bothers me and where I think the arguments stem from. | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/3/2009 8:38:44 AM | | Because I am the most genuine, sweetest, loyal, charismatic, responsible, beautiful woman. I will cook you amazing meals, 9 times out of 10 finish it with a delectable dessert, I have a clean warm inviting home, and if you play your cards right, I won't kick you out of my bedroom. I am sincere and I have stability and I am financially secure. I am not into the club scene, and I live life to the fullest. I'm not afraid to get down and dirty outside, and I can most likely demolish you at any videogame (lots of experience) My Ex-husband is sure kicking his ass with regret, because he is missing out. There are some that won't date a single Mom and there are some that will, it's all about personal preferences, but hey each to their own. I guess I am just showing how men might miss out if they don't date me ;p | |

No silly, if you read it in full, I said they would be missing out on dating ME ;p it had nothing to do with me having children, but no these woman would not have all of these attributes, because they are not me. ;p Quit trying to argue where there is no argument. lol | |

You forgot really, really ugly and/or stupid.
Birth control is not that hard to figure out. And most of the women I have known who actually had something going for them got an abortion, gave it up for adoption, or didn't get preggo in the first place. Read, "Birth control is not that hard to figure out."
Arf arf!
LOL! I crack myself up. Seems I hit a nerve too.
And women without kids....? They have all of these attributes too.... and no kids....
Quoted for truth. I think that older men for the most part don't mind single moms, but any man under his mid to late 30 who dates them has really low standards or not enough brain power to understand the potential consequences.
One last thing: Some of you ladies (and I use to term loosely) should seriously stop and consider why it is you hate bosox so much. She's obviously better looking than most of you, obviously smarter, obviously much more logical.... the men who post here like here and basically despise all of you...
Oh wait. I just answered my own question.
:roll: | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/3/2009 11:55:42 AM | Hit a nerve with who? I find your posts amusing and a direct reaction to my posts. Do you think I seriously care if you don't find me attractive? Hmmm..let me think about that one...yeah, about as much as I care if you date single parents or date anyone for that matter. You are letting the forum boards get to you just a little too much don't ya think?
And I don't think any of us hate bosox. It's a forum board. Without the debates and heated topics what fun would it be? Again...putting too much stock into a public forum there soldier. | |

You mean little Jimmy doesn't like me?! Let me run home and tell mommy you aren't playing fair.

Put on your big girl size 18 panties soldier and suck it up. | |

I don't know if you were including me in that rant or not but just for the record, I don't hate anyone. Hate takes too much emotional energy to maintain for what purpose? You are correct, she is beautiful and educated. She shows her logic well in her writings and appears to be unemotionally posting her thoughts. I can disagree with someone and not take it to a personal level providing they show some respect for the opinions that differ. I think most of us can.
Whether I am liked by men or women on this forum really doesn't matter too much to me honestly. I use these forums to grow as a person by exposing myself to the ideas of others and at times as a source of entertainment. That I have made some good friends of both sexes is a bonus not the reason.
In any event, she is much happier in the Science/Philosophy forum and it is a good fit for her because she is quite educated and articulate. I'm seeing a side of her that I can relate to on a deeper level than "single parent". I have a stronger appreciation for her beautiful mind in that forum than in this one. She is different there...perhaps more confident and real...don't know how to explain it.
I feel sorry for you though, not sure you could keep her in there...too much competition for her....  | |

| How are Men missing out, If they choose not to Date sigle moms Posted: 8/3/2009 6:45:52 PM | Thank you, Itsallinthesoul, Futureshock and Soldier. Your high thoughts of me make me feel warm and fuzzy.
I have one comment to make at Sweetness:
In one post: I am a member of Mensa.
In another: Where did i ever say i was in Mensa?
The second statement was "I don't recall saying I was a member of Mensa."
I did say I was a member. I didn't mean to. Sometimes I make quick statements without thinking about what I am saying. I don't participate in Mensa, and when asked about it, I usually avoid answering.
Luckily, women are very forgiving of their partners' faults, including intelligence. If you are cute, your excessive IQ will be overlooked and the relationship is good. Same when you are rich. But I am not sure the average Mensa dude does well with women. I would like to hear more about that.
I am a member of American MENSA and it has not hindered nor helped my ability to establish and nurture relationships. I didn't remember saying I was in Mensa, because I don't like to tell people that I know that I am higher than average in intelligence. Why? Because so are hundreds of millions of people in world. Billions of others over the last 50,000 years. I also pointed out that the top 2% of scorers includes more people than anyone realizes, and honestly, I didn't do anything to start out with the IQ I have. I will never broadcast my IQ. Ever.
Please do not bring this up again. There are many others who know a lot more than I do, many others capable of learning and understanding more than I am capable of. I never want to be perceived as thinking I am better than someone because of my intelligence alone. It matters not unless I am willing to do something with it, follow through, and am humble enough to learn from others. That's what I'm trying to do. | |
