Ive dated women with children, never bothered me as I love the little blighters anyway. I kind of expect women of around late twentys and over to have kids anyway so I dont let it put me off.

Crying or Very sad
Don't you just hate it when someone comes along all cheerful like and says... don't worry yourself hunny, the right one will come along eventually...., sorry but it's gonna be me that says it Wink After over 3 years with a guy who didn't want the responsibility of my 4..yes,4!!.. children, I've met someone who just shrugged and said 'and?' when i told him

And if a nut like Morillo can like 'em, then others are bound to Wink

just be yourself and continue to be proud of your status and your child, and the person who's deserving of your attention and affections will come along

I can understand why a guy doesnt want to date a girl with kids, not everyone wants kids, their own or someone elses. A lot of ppl like to date and be spontaneous, thats difficult to say the least when a person has kids - you just up and do whatever - there's always the kids to consider. So yes I can understand it.

Dating women with kids isn’t a problem as such. There are situations where it can be a problem though. The age of the kids for starters. In my experience the younger kids haven’t been a problem but the older teenage ones have been, ..they tended to look at me as the reason that dad wasn’t there when in fact that boat had sailed long ago before I turned up. The ex (husband) can also cause probs too, not wanting their kids to get close to another man etc …..

Granted that every situation is different but men tend to think about these things before getting involved.

sorry to hear that cutegirly, then it makes you think, did they realy love you, or did they only want you for your body....my problem is as soon as I tell a woman I have two kids then she runs....ye, I suppose nobody wants baggage, but wheter you are single or have kids you still have some kind of baggage.....you are a cutegirly, hopefully you will meet a cute man who won't be affraid to put a ring on your finger!!

I spent over 3 years with a guy that didn't want the responsibility of the kids so I do know it's not easy. I'm now seeing someone who's reaction to my having 4 was to shrug his shoulders and wonder why it should be an issue.

Our own Ladytrace has now found a fellah happy to take hers on

Give up hoping and you may as well just give up altogether.

To be honest if someone says they can't handle the baggage they aren't worth the time of day. I have two daughters aged 2 and 7 months. They come first above everything else. If you're going to date someone then they have to realise coming second is always the option - some people don't like or can't handle the thought that they are not number one in someone's life. They do not realise how much time is devoted to our little ones. Loving a partner is special but loving your kids is unconditional.

I would've thought the majority of guys would not see it as an issue, after all, we all have a past and previous relationships. Do they think kids grow on trees?
Love the attitude but to be honest, i can see why some don't want the responsibility. We're all different and want different things from life. It's just hard when you meet someone you click with that doesn't want those little 'extras'.

And welcome to the forums Nadalutti

In this modern age it is not uncommon for women now a day's to have children and want to be dating as well if men can't accept this then their not worth dating in the first place how many of them has left a single mother behind to look after their kids
