Thats why single moms and single dads should get together. It is not impossible to find someone who is willing to enter into a relationship with someone who has kids. It may take time, but it happens all the time so don't get down, just keep looking!!!

thanks for that i do have hope but adjustments come with times but its very dificult to find a great guy that understands that i know i;ve been alone for 4 years
This has been an issue for sometime. I find these problems very disturbing and have turned me off from even trying to "date" As a dad we are expected to accept the womans children, but most of the time she doesn't expect to have to accept mine
I can vouche for that. My second wife would not and could not accept my kid's from my first marriage. As a mr. mom my kids come first. So while we are here, how many mr.moms get flowers on mothers day. I do!!! and I enjoy it too.
Perhaps we should concentrate all of our efforts on our children and making sure they're not exposed to anymore turmoil caused by our messed-up love-life's. Once they're 18 and graduated, THAT'S when we should feel free to date to our hearts' content. Just my opinion. That's how I live my life, not suggesting that EVERYONE should think like me. Trying to add some food for thought. No knee-jerks, please.
Also finding someone who will love your kids as their own. Grew up the unwanted child of a stepmother. I have long forgiven her for her actions. Really hurts the children though...
