[Whenever I hear of a couple who get along well when it comes to raising their children after divorce, I often wonder why they broke up in the first place. So is there any chance of you and your ex getting back together?] No way, definitely no chance at all. We are definitely better off friends. It's actually a miracle that we do get along as well as we do now. And it's better for our daughter that we can be friendly towards each other and put her first before our differences. I can definitely see your point about when she gets older and has more of her own social life. It's just tough, and not much fun being alone. Definitely more fun to have someone to share life with! I have a lot to offer, and in general think I'm a pretty good guy.

My first time posting here, so I apologize if this doesn't show up like it is supposed to. Anyhow, I am a single father who has my 8 year old daughter 50% of the time. We have a two week on/two week off situation. She is the one who actually asked for it to be that way, believe it or not! It works out great and she gets to spend equal amounts of time with both myself and her mother. What I have found so far, is that most of the women I have met can't handle the arrangement I have. They say it is attractive that I am so involved in her life, but once that two weeks comes around that I have her, they seem to lose interest and fall off the face of the earth. I generally have a rule that I do not introduce my daughter to anyone until there seems like potential in the relationship evolving into something a little more serious. I have dated single mothers before and found it very difficult when they introduced their kids right away. It's that whole instant attachment thing, and if something doesn't work out, it sucks for everyone. in any event, my daughter is my priority, and when I have her I try to spend as much personal time with her. I'm starting to lose hope that I will find someone now. I think being a single dad hasn't really caught on for the dating women out there.
