I figure that JUST LIKE THE GUYS... no female wants to get stuck raising someone else's kids... you are going to just have to keep on searching until you can find a stupid nice enough gal.. ---SoldierByte---

It is hard enough for two people to start a life together, adding kids can scare the stuffins out of anybody.
After all you want your kids to like the person your with or with her kids. It can be crazy!! (Brady Bunch)
Then will the kids be the reason you disagree on many things, such as disipline?
As I have found out in the past, his (adult) kids did not like me nor did his grandkids....so I left. I would not ask him to choose, that would have only caused more hard feelings. (We are still friends.) The reason they did not like me..because he was not there for them 100% of the time anymore. He has no life of his own!
Don't give up, there is someone out there who would love to love you & your kids. Good luck!!

yea, it is true for me, While I love little RUGRATS, to include the three of mine, I have no intention of helping to raise more. Been there and done that, and bought the shirt....Sorry but it is what it is...

I think most women have already raised their own and just don't wish to be mommy to someone eles children.I think they also don't wish to have to deal with the ex-partner.
Its a matter of choice,some men and woman would,some wouldn't. I love kids,but 24/7 again,i am not sure i would have the energy i had in my 20's. I love to see my grand-kids when they come visit,but i am also glad when they go home.

I still have dependant children and would certainly never ask any woman to be a mother to them.
I would hope that I could share my love with both my boys and a woman in equal measure, without the woman either interferring or feeling like a substitute mother !

You´ve just inadvertantly summed up the main reasons why some women shy from a relationship with men who have dependent children!

Indeed. If you say something their not your children and your interfering. If you don't say anything or do something your not trying to make them like you, or your not trying to blend in with them......

I'm sure there are parents who feel like you do.My late husband had two boys and if something would've happened to their mother I would've helped him raise them.
My niece dated and married a man who had 3 minor children and later on she adopted them.Her family questioned her of why she would wish to marry a man who had children.She told her family it was because she loved him and that his children were part of the package deal so to speak.

just depends on the people involved..if you put you have children on your profile then it would seem that anyone who contacts you should be ok with kids..right? just my opinion but maybe if you contact someone, you should make sure on their profile they are ok with dating someone who has kids?
I think you should appreciate that the women are not wasting your time nor emotions by ending the connection that she feels incapable of handling. As you have read, there are many grounded reason a woman prefers not to start a relationship with children still in the home. Relationships are hard as it is and some women are not equipped to struggle with the "how do I make this work plus work with the kids". Good Luck with your search for your Ms Right. She's there ready to take on the challenges and fulfeel mutual desires.
