Try and think about it this way. If you tell a guy your a single mum, and he runs, that just tells you he wouldn't be good for you or your child/ren. It just helps weed out the guys who aren't worthy to be in your life.

Would you rather that they invested your time and effort into a relationship that wasn't going to work? There are a million different reasons, and as a single dad I've seen women leave skid marks when I tell them I'm a single dad. Look on the bright side and think how much aggrivation and heartache you've saved yourself when they ran a mile.

Some men like women don't wish to raise anothers persons children or deal with the the other parent. Or some don't wish to be parents or want their own children.

it takes all sorts on a dating site and some men just don't want the responsibility. which goes to show that he wouldn't have been any good for you anyway. believe me, there are men who would jump at the chance. just stick at it, the right person will come along at any time. i have viewed your profile and it is lovely. someone is out there for you. good luck - not that you need any.

ex boyfriends are easier to deal with than a dad out of the picture...do you know how hard it is to lose your kids from the home?most guys love and miss their kids and dont take kindly to another man entering the picture...some hope to reconcile...to date a woman with kids means there is a man issue to deal with as well maybe...i dated many single moms but have ones ex stick a gun in my next and suggest i date someone elses ex...i did...and i still am cautious...even tho i am not venge full of who dates my ex i am protective of my kids and would have something to say if she dated a dirt bag... love for the single moms...if they are running from you baby they are stupid...

¡Minda0810, perhaps the answer you are giving implicit in the question, They are only guys, they lack emotional and intellectual maturity to cope with parenthood!
Even some grown men, sometimes they are unsure of having a relationship with a single mom, A fortiori, a young man who never have known the meaning of commitment and responsibility!
And I affirm that I am not defending men, on the contrary, definitely a considerable part of men, young and mature sooner than later moved away, but glad, these idiots have no place in the life of your child and yours!

I think what they/ I see is limitation in freedom and options. But by all means, it does not need to be easy as long as the girl is worth it. So we're back to square one :)

To be honest from my point of view I would like to be the most important person in somebodys life and not the second,third or fourth depending on how many children she has but I would be happy to date a lady who has children who are over eighteen,have there own lifes and are not living at home with her.
Your best bet maybe to look for single dads who would be under the same criteria as yourself
HOUSTON4: Why would you say that? Are we not entitled to look for certain things in a partner and just because you maybe happy to share your life with somebody with children it don't mean everybody would be.
