The OMS recommends that babies are breastfed exclusively for six months, for a number of reasons. I believe that maternity leave should never end before the first birthday of the child but, in any case, to put a baby under 6 months in babycare is going too far.

feline..with all due respect. I still stand by what I said in my previous post.

You have no one to blame but yourself if you do contract any sort of STDs or STIs.

You make your choice who, when, where, how you have sex, (unless it is rape) so if you dont take certain precautions before you make these choices, then the blame is yours if you do catch anything!!

When you dishonor your marriage there is nothing left of it but the lie, and that's not a good home for raising children. They would be better served having a pod of amorous adults carousing the hallways late at night making strange noises than being stuck in a house of lies with two estranged parents presenting a false front and an example of deceptive hypocrisy.

I'm not a purist but I was wondering, what moral values can you teach your kids with that arrangement? Can you really tell your kids it's right to have lovers at home? Can you really say that you have not dishonor your marriage? Can you honestly say that because the parents and the kids are still together but living in that situation, will you still call it a HOME? Just because it works, does it follows that it is also right?

After we broke up, I learned my SO was having an affair at the time of making that bizzare accusation. Maybe it is true that those who falsely accuse have the notion in their head for themselves.

How do you ladies look at men who use these distractions with their kids?

its time consuming, yes, h

You being lactose intolerant has absolutely nothing to do with breastfeeding a baby. Now if the baby were, breastfeeding is still fine, it is formulas you have to worry about since many are milk based and therefore contain lactose.

I don't owe you anything other than to tell you I don't want to be with you.[/quote}

Ah, but you see, I think the OP was saying that he did not even do that - he just pulled a vanishing act. I had ONE of those - turned out he went back to his wife... and that he had lied about his age, his former profession, the fact that he already had an exwife and two grown sons (who were barely younger than I) and pretty much everything else in his life.

OP - because he's a coward. Simple as that. You did, indeed, dodge a bullet - be glad the waste of space is gone from your life. If you were to learn the truth, it might hurt more than not knowing... you might learn that everything you believed to be true about him was all fantasy.

Did we? Really? OJ didn't have to apologize to us for what he did, even at the level that he claimed to have committed, one would think his confessed sins were still worse than Tiger's. What have we come to, really, when we are so deeply mired into celbrity's lives that we need to be apologized to when our shiney star gets a little tarnished?

Polyamory is fun for new NSA experience and/or short relationships.
Polyamory does not work long terms because you cannot love equally 2 persons. You will love one more than the other and this will lead to issues in the long run.

No I would never be in a polymourous relationship. Jealousy is one of the most natural and strong feelings that arises in LTR's (and is almost unique to LTR's), so how can anyone expect there not to be jealousy issues when they have more than one people in an LTR. People in polymourous relationships are either in denial of their jealousies or they simply aren't in touch with their feelings.

've been involved in "swinger" type relationships and they didn't work....

Agreed, sleeping beauty. All those irresponsible single people screwing around on and off dating sites are the real problem. All those supposedly monogamous people who cheat on their partners, and the hypocritical moralizing bible thumping preachers who do their brother's wife - those do need to be judged as wanting in the the ethical realm.

If that's not who you meant, then perhaps you should get some facts - it might prevent you from making such uninformed idiotic remarks.

Never would voluntarily enter into a polyamorous lifestyle. Too bad my ex decided to enter into one....without telling me. Hence, why he is now my ex.

Why not get a 2nd opinion from a doctor you know and trust?

Why the hell do you even bother haunting the single parents thread, Steven, if you're so dead against who/what we are?

Their profiles say that shit because they must believe men really want to read that, like the popular one "my kids will always come first". Common sense should come in to play as no guy wants a women who openly tells him, he will always be last on her list and should like it or lump it.

Why even bother with single mothers in the first place, when you see permanent little walking and talking reminders of the man she screwed before you. Which is revolting but these doormat/push over guys are so desperate for a women, they loose all self respect and dignity by settling for child(ren) created by her and another guy.
