| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/22/2007 11:34:48 PM | | Don't get me wrong, I like kids but seeing as I'm looking to start a new relationship with someone and I don't have kids of my own I thought it only natural that I look for a girl without kids too...Good luck! I think I have seen just 5 or 6 women in the whole state that don't already have kiddos at home.....Has anyone else noticed this? | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/22/2007 11:38:49 PM | | I totally know what you're talking about. I don't have a problem with kids, but when I was a kid, I had a problem with any guy my mom brought home. | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/24/2007 1:06:18 AM | | Well, someone once told me that Washington State is the single mom capitol of America. I'm starting to believe it cause i've been running into the same thing. Either they have kids or they have a boyfriend, one or the other. There are a few out there with no kids tho, but you gotta be quick cause they get snatched up fast. | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/25/2007 8:23:25 AM | I had a little chit chat with a women a few months ago in a coffee shop. She was 32 and had a 15 year old and a 8 year old kid. Never married....WTF?
I have noticed pretty much all women I meet now days that are my age have kids or like darkromeo425 says with a boyfriend or married. Since I have never been married and have no kids I seek the same. At 34 I still see a glimmer of hope in the 25 to 30 year old class of women but then maturity and priorities are all messed up making things difficult at best.
Statistics would say that more single women with no kids out there then ever before but I have not found many. The few that I did find were already spoken for. | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/25/2007 2:05:45 PM | | If you are looking for a single woman in the age range of 25-30 with no kids, above average looks, and no boyfriend then Washington State is not the place to be. I'm slowly but surely learning the horrible truth about that. | |
|
| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/26/2007 11:15:15 PM | Dear darkromeo, if you are just looking for a single woman, then Washington State is not the place to be. Sorry and pathetic, but true.
I'm child-free by choice, but I'm the bizarre exception. Almost all the women I meet, unless they're lesbians, are already saddled with a pup or two. Even most of the lesbians here have kids once they settle down.
I've dated and married men in this state for a long time, and I have yet to date/marry a "native" Washingtonian. They've all been men from other states or countries.
The people that grow up here are very cliquish, staying with the same group of friends that they make in high school or at work, and heaven help you if you try to get "assertive" with a woman around here. Ask a woman's name, or tell her she's pretty, and the odds are good that she'll run off screaming "sexual harrassment" or some such nonsense, or she'll pretend that you don't even exist on this planet, and she'll scurry away quickly with her head and eyes cast down, hands stuffed way down into her pockets in the classic "Seattle Posture."
Seattle is a terrific place to enjoy outdoor activities, eat at great restaurants, and work yourself to death at your Microjob, if that's what you're into. But, dating -- fuhgettaboutit. Learn to live solo in Seattle, or you're going to end up being mighty frustrated at the lack of available, dateable people.
I wish you the best of luck in your search for any potential young, child-free, single women in Seattle. Be sure to keep us updated if you happen to find anyone of substance! | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/27/2007 8:22:15 PM | Well your posting is without doubt just my experinece these 3 years and yeah I have dated many a woman who has kids (at least 1) and is not married. But then again Washington being progessive, women here are taught to be more independant and not relying on men for support.
But hey there's gotta be someone out there for you, and maybe it just might have to be something to deal with, what if you find this wonderful woman with one child? Is it that life shattering to date someone like that, I mean if she isnt willing to have more kids than forget it but also remember, the single mom's out here are also low class, and strange people who dont know how to start a strong and lasting realtionship because they dont know what they want in life, I cant tell you how many times I have run into that, soooo join groups, clubs, develop a social rountine (going to the same places at the same times in hopes of finding someone) and do all you can, Washingtion isnt impossible to live in, you just gotta reach out.
OH BTW I can understand the pushy thing, I've been there and it was just me making a effort to meet a girl, my solution there is to simply say your not a native here and they'll understand. GOOD LUCK! | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/31/2007 1:09:09 PM | | I just want to add that this issue doesn't exist on such a high scale in other countries. I've talked to women in europe, south america, asia, etc. I ask them if they have kids and the response is usually "Are you crazy? I'm too young, or I have never been married" Have the values in this country degraded that much? | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 5/31/2007 3:09:08 PM | | I had my boy when I was 31 and I was married. Not all moms out there are the same, so don't lump us all into one category. Everyone has a story. You know what they say about assuming. ;) | |

Yes, indeed.

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 6/1/2007 1:08:05 PM | | Pfff Try being 42 with no kids looking for a nice lady. I already raised one Dead-Beat Dad's kids for him, unsure if I want to have to put myself thru that again. | |
|
| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 6/1/2007 7:34:45 PM | Do you think all women who aren't married and have a kid are attached to a deadbeat dad?
I'm good friends with my ex, he's a good person, pays child support and has his boy every weekend. | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 6/3/2007 10:09:00 AM | I found a few women out there without children, but I have to add it wasn't by choice. Medical issues or emotional ones eliminated the possibilities.
If I was in my 20’s and looking to start a relationship fresh, then I would go back down to southern California or Phoenix to find the women who are not only attractive but more energetic and open to doing fun things. Most of the younger women there are in better shape and happier attitudes. Don't be surprised if you get asked out more often then you doing the asking. Seattle is just not a good city for singles to hook up but it is a good city for existing couples.
I’ve known a lot of women who moved here with children from other states. Saying this is the single mothers capital is (in my opinion) correct.
Now I just love the concept of saying: Women here are more ‘independent’. This is incorrect. The only way this would be correct is if the woman did not receive child support, welfare or any other support other then her own earned income. Since this is generally not the case then this concept of independence just means the woman wants to hold position of control on any and all situations.
Being single mothers force women into a position of control and authority over their children. The problem is, this control spills out to every day life even out side the home. The hard part is for a woman to release that control to anyone else. Most feel they shouldn’t have too. | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 6/4/2007 7:52:37 PM | Unfortunately in this Country it will be hard to find single women without kids because in your country divorce it is very common.(which is crazy since I am latina and where I come from it is very hard to see someone getting divorce because of the pressure of the church since we are CATHOLIC AND WE HAVE FAMILY VALUES). Unfortunately this is a society without values about family so divorce it is very common.(People give up easly in relation beside the judicial system make it easily to get a divorce in 3 month). If you go to check an elementary school you will notice that more than half of the student are coming from divorce families . | |

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 6/4/2007 10:26:08 PM | I do believe that if I find a good woman here, I'll take whatever the total package is be that kids or whatever so long as I'm warned and know what I'm getting into. I really didn't mean to pop off up above sorry for the 2 sentence rant LOL.

| Are there any WA Ladies without kids??? Posted: 6/7/2007 9:22:45 AM | | True, Alot of single women on here have kids. Ido too. I do feel the need to be independant aswell and fortunately this has kept me feeling pretty safe and secure in my well being. Yet there is a a big empty space that a good man could fill. Cupidisblind I hope you find what your looking for. Your prediciment inspires a movie plot. Thanks for that. | |
