Single parents - dating advice?
he still stands
Posts: 2,835
Is everyone in this world so shallow that as soon as you reveal you've got a kid... they ALL run away? As soon as I utter "ki...." the women that I've dated - or talked to - sprint away. I can understand some people just aren't ready to have a kid in their life at all, even if I don't expect a thing from them, but I've been dating for about a year now and it is always the same thing; "sorry, but I'm looking for someone without children."
Any dating advice for a single dad? Other single parents who've been in the same boat?

Everything not forbidden is compulsory and eveything not compulsory is forbidden. You are free... free to do what the government says you can do.

thanks dude. Unfortunately I don't have any family around and few friends (I only live here because SHE decided to live here and the law is ARCHAIC as hell). So, that makes it hard to go out with a girl because I have my son a lot and almost every weekend and no one to babysit.
I've even stooped to the level of online dating. Literally NO ONE wants to date a single father. I am ready to settle down and be serious. It has been 1.5 years since my divorce and I've gotten to "play the field" for long enough.
OH man, I sound desperate. :oops:
how old is the kid?
yeah, i know, i'm no help.
he's almost two.
I wouldn't mind a soccer mom, but I'd prefer a tattoo'd musician biologist fitness-model who enjoys sex as much as I do, has the same political/social views and loves kids.
Is that too much to ask?
or the mall. local mall is always packed with moms and kids at lunch. don't know how many are single.
being only 2, you have a couple of years until t ball starts.
yup. You're totally right. Now that the weather is getting nicer it'll be easier to do this.
Is it a faux pas to use my son as "dating ammo"? What if I am shirtless?
I go to the gym during my lunch break every day. Nothing to look at there :?
PA women are just... I don't know... conservative and boring (and dating someone with a kid already is taboo, apparently). At least the ones I've met. If I was "home" in Illinois this wouldn't be a problem!
haha, that's funny, I can relate to that.... I am not too far from you, near Reading.. My girlfriend moved here from NYC to be with me. We met on a band's website forum. I have 3 kids.
Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me
hmmm I think you may be onto something... any hot single girls in Eastern PA on this forum?

Take a class. One that interests you but art, gym, music or cooking work well.
At a minimum, you have the class to talk about.
Just a suggestion.

8/23/09 - Chicago, IL
9/28/09 - Salt Lake City, UT (11 years too long!!!)
9/03/11 - East Troy, WI - PJ20 - Night 1
9/04/11 - East Troy, WI - PJ20 - Night 2
I would certainly try this if I was in yoru shoes, and definitely take a class that reflects your personal interest or beliefs.
Good luck out in the field, and play ball.

Met a girl Friday night at happy hour. We left and had sushi, then more drinks then my place... :shock:
Went out again last night and I stayed the night at her place. We talked about taking it slow but we ended up in bed again...
She is SUPER cool... is basically my doppelganger (not physically, thank god). We get along great, the conversation flows easily, we're into the same things, she's cool with me having a kid (most importantly) and she is 100% drama-free (so far as I can tell).
The ONLY thing is... I'm not super attracted to her. She is pretty, but not as hot as some of my previous girlfriends. I hate saying that... but it is just my perception.
I don't know if it is wise... but is it possible for her to "grow" on me? Physically, I mean. Because everything else is perfect....
Sounds to me that you're either desperate, and that's why you've already had sex with her even though you weren't that attracted to her...or you're just being very shallow
Regardless, I really do hope you find someone...and give her a chance even though she doesn't have perfect boobs and ass... :roll:
Ok, think I'm done rolling my eyes for today.
Good luck to you.
:thumbup:
and not just because you have the coolest name either

thanks suzi

But come on (fella's back me up)... she is like a 7 out of 10. One of those girls that you're attracted to but not the hottest girl at the bar and probably not even in the top 3. The first thing that attracted me to her was her personality... not her looks.
That being said... I'm probably a 6 out of 10 so I should shut up.
But, I like a certain "type" that she isn't. (athletic) Because I'm athletic...
I guess what I'm saying is she could stand to lose 15 pounds.
I just figured out why I'm single....
I'M AN ASSHOLE!!!
sheesh... what's wrong with me? :?
dude 15 pounds is nothing to get bent outta shape bout. so shes got some "baby fat". probably means shes got big boobs and bit of a ass. not like shes a real fat girl. if your that bent outta shape bout 15 pounds, you got problems.

That could be it
Also I find if someone is awesome, their hotness factor goes up. If someone is a douchebag, their hotness factor goes down. If she were to read this...I am guessing your hotness factor would drop.
Remember she could be telling her friends about you now too
