WHY DO WOMAN RUN FROM MEN WITH KIDS?
Posted: 5/20/2009 5:13:45 AM
Simple answer: because some women are just as shallow as some men are. I've run into the same situation, as soon as women find out I have my kids full-time, 24/7 (not just part-time), OR they realize they can't handle it or aren't used to dating someone who has their kids all the time, I don't hear from them again.

Rejection and dating single parents only
Posted: 5/20/2009 5:07:43 AM
Sarah, I am a single dad who keeps dealing with the same issue on this site....which has taught me, that women are just as shallow as men (in general, not everyone) when it comes to dating. I prefer to date single moms but even they seem not to prefer me...so I know where you're coming from and don't understand it either.

Do guys like single moms?
Posted: 5/20/2009 5:04:37 AM
Speaking as a single dad who has had full custody of two kids for 9 years, I actually prefer single moms because they understand a single dad's situation. You can't always drop everything at a moment's notice to go somewhere, the kids have to come first, and there's a host of other issues I have found that women without kids just don't understand. Plus a single dad tends to take the relationship/dating more seriously, because (if he's smart) he won't want different women walking in and out of his kids' lives all the time.

Best way to meet single fathers? LOL
Posted: 5/20/2009 5:00:26 AM
The best way is to go on sites like this one, find a decent guy who's raising his kids by himself, and even if at first glance he might not be exactly what you're looking for or what you think of as the "perfect" man (tall, dark and handsome, whatever), give him a chance and you might be very pleasantly surprised.

I agree with the last post, it is difficult for single dads to meet ladies and start over again, perhaps even more so because there are more single guys out there without kids than those with kids for those single moms to choose from. The key is try to look into the person's heart so you're not chasing the wrong kind of person. Chase the wrong kind of guy and you end up with someone who wouldn't truly care for you or your kids.

Why is it harder for a single parent to get a date ?
Posted: 5/20/2009 4:56:19 AM
I've run into sooo many single moms who have a double standard....they say they want to find a good guy, good role model for their kids, but then they don't want a guy who already has kids 24/7 himself. So until these single moms who say they want a good guy start knocking on my door, I don't wanna hear any of them complaining.

Do women mind single dads with kids
Posted: 5/15/2009 3:32:28 PM
I've found that some women don't want to date a guy like me who has their kids 24/7, but would date a guy who has them part-time....but I figure that's their loss, because my kids are fantastic and easy to get along with. I actually find it easier to date women with kids because they understand where I'm coming from. So if there are any single moms out there in middle TN, hit me up if you're interested...
