I agree...yes i have children...but the person i am looking to meet on here will not be dating my children...they will be dating "me"..
I am not looking for a father for my children...they already have one...a very fine one...what i am looking for is a partner for myself...that is the reason i do not go into detail about my children on my profile...after "we" have established some sort of relationship...there will be plenty of time to find out about my children...
I know i've talked about dating people with/without children...but this is one part of it i'd like to address separately...
When i read profiles...I am amazed at the amount of parents that put on there that their children are the most important thing to them, and that they take priority....
If one is a parent themself, they will know that goes without saying...or so i assumed...but the wording itself always throws me off...do they mean to imply that whoever chooses to be part of their life needs to understand from the get go that they will ALWAYS take second place in their life???
Though the fact may be that your children will always take priority..is it necessary to say so in your profile??

that's the part we always seem to miss isn't it Bobby....
in our search for the "one"...we miss things that are right in front of us...we compromise what is important to us....and we see what we want to see..because we want to love again....
I too am happy for you lonelyman...its what we are on here for...
I don't believe in "soulmates" myself personally....but i do believe in deep and abiding love...
Its not that you don't want to do anything else all day Mychelle...the fact is you're "dating" your computer...and doing exactly what anyone would in a new relationship...spending as much time with your "new love" as possible...
I agree with you Wanda...I too would not be interested in dating someone who has very young children....I have already "been there"..and look forward to the "me" time i have earned by waiting until my children were older to start dating again...
I am dating someone with two teenage daughters (yes i know ladies, as if one wasn't enough i decided to take on someone with 2!! )
One of his daughters i absolutely adore and treat her no different than i would my own (she's a year older than my eldest)...the older daughter for some reason i just cannot find a common ground with her...she tells her dad that she thinks i am the one that doesn't like her...but i see what he doesn't...and the fact is she doesn't like me...I think she feels "displaced" by me...plus i think she is closer to her mom...
..."There is an easy assessment that you can do, in order to tell how rock solid your man can become - but I forgot - I will look into it and get back to you"...
Ok...so I'm guessing the subtle fondling i do is not the answer right???
Great...first i'm breaking their back...now i'm breaking their heart....
Your answer was well in line of what i expected Mychelle...however it is a valid point...
And surprisingly enough....just about everyday i question what i am wearing...whether its to work, to the store, or to the schoolyard....
Let me point out though....I have been served food by young people whose skin looks very unhealthy...however i would never be so crass as to make a mention of it...would you??
Most retail businesses right now - with the Walmart Giant looming over them - has put more effort into the customer service aspect of the store...Most customers are approached as a rule and offered our service...the ones that approach us are generally the ones that are in some rush and feel that an employee of the store is their personal shopper...JMO
