shameg: I do get that sence of men viewing me in someway as being disadvantaged , which i find very frustrating , i work i support myself and my daughter, men seam to think you want someone to leach off which i find ridiculous


I don't think it's a question of YOU being the 'disadvantage', nor would I on a personal note see children as an encumbrance, but perhaps to some men, having children means that there is probably less time for you and him, as a couple. Having said that, if they don't like what's on offer, then move on.

Poll Question: Why do men seam to have a dim view of women that already have children ?





One of my best friends is a 22 year old man, who I helped raise starting when he was 5.

I love him like my own son, he's my daughter's 1/2 brother; I helped teach him to read, and taught him to do calligraphy, to ride a bicycle, to build a fire, and camp, and play music, and track animals.

When his mother, and I broke up, he was out of my life for years, until he got old enough to come find me on his own.



The only thing that concerns me about a woman with children, is the way it feels to go from being dad, to being a stranger; in one day.

Well, Dear You,

Case in question, a very dear friend of mine, met the love of his life about 3 years ago, She has Two lovely girls, they married last year in Rhodes, me being the Best Man, My friend, and our entire social group view the Children as his and are a extremely happy family, Now am sure there are lots of decent Men out there, am also sure you and your child deserve one of them, Forget the shallow, self centred individuals, anybody that does not know the value of a child is not worth your time or effort.

The very best of luck to you.

shameg: I have noticed some comments when i have received mail regarding me being a single parent.
So what do you do apart from child rearing ?
How old were you when you had your daughter ?
So do you work ?
this puts me straight off someone. Can someone give me an insight of such negitivity towards single parents ?
Asking if you work is not really negative. He just wants to know that you can support your kids. I have three and they are my number one priority and any man who has a problem with that is not the man for me. And I don't care how many kids he has - I only care that he's a good father to them. Kids are an absolute blessing.

Shameg...

Put it like this hun would you want someone like that in your life what speaks to you like that?

One thing with these sites (I'm new but I know what goes on) people will put you down for the slightest little thing. Part of these sites is rejection and feelings of did I do something wrong etc...

Look in the mirror and love yourself and your family :) The idiots that say these things to you ignore them and block them. They are not worth the time of day or wasting a 2nd thought on them.

I have looked at your profile, lovely read and you are very attractive. You will find your ideal match :)

A true man would love you and chidlren as there part of you not think of it as a hinderance remember that please :)

Somewhere way back in the dark ages.

I mean it really does stand to reason, if you don't want to have a relationship with a person who has children why even consider them in the first place. Some people are very irresponsible in their train of thought regarding this matter. thumbs up

I can't speak for everyone but I'm worked that I'll get attached emotionally to the kids. If things don't work out for me and there mother then how do I say goodbye to the kids?

Good point!!
Thats one of the reasons i dont wish to date...i do not want my children being attached to someone that just disappears.
They have already had to deal with that from their father so why should i put them in that scenario again?

That said...It should not be a deterrent for some not dating...You never know whats round the corner. yay

I am sorry that there are so many selfish men who only think about themselves. I'm not sure why you are a single parent, but I do know why many ladies are single parents, having been abandoned by selfish men who use a lady. It appears you have proven yourself a very strong lady. thumbs up

It is not just men who are selfish, I have met a lot of women who didnt want to be with me because I have coustody and am involved with my kids.

personaly I get tired of the steriotypes, " Men always cheet, Men wont accept my kids, ets," Women do all those things too and just as much a men do. There are good ones and bad ones in both genders so women get over it, it is not just men it is individuals who are a**hole.

The OP was not asking about ladies, she was talking about men. I know damn well there a women that are selfish too, but that is not the questioned asked by the OP. doh
