Its hard no matter who you are.
But when your a parent, it tends to make it tougher. Most people want children of their own only. Or, they dont like kids. But there are those who dig kids or have some themselves, so dont give up. |

beats the sh*t outta me...no one online wants to date me and it's the time issues we have created by the kids...i've never used a sitter to go on a date...only go out when all 3 have plans at the same time...which basically never happens...you'll have fun and meet lots of ladies here if you post in the forums...welcome, have fun and i hope you find who/what you're looking for ... b

Ive been through this myself, I gave the man 7 years of my life...I was on standby...kids and ex wife always priority...which is correct ofcourse, but I wanted a bit more then being a substitute Dont give up though...there are female single parents out there too...just like me...but try and get both sets of kids to mingle and make friends...similar ages helps. My kids were too old for his, Mine are on the verge of leaving home...his were just starting out at secondary school...I felt...well Heavens I cant step back in time like this and begin all over again |

Not only that, I'm having a hard time just making friends. It seems people respond better if you act like a maniac. I usually spend more time alone than with others, and I'm not sure why. I smile, I care, I'm compassionate, I'm fun....blah...blah...blah...but for some reason, nobody calls my cellphone. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Maybe I'm putting out bad vibes, but I'm beginning to believe nobody likes me and it might be better to hate than to love! nope...no way...btw i lost your # that's why i haven't called |

Many faces to see and many conversations to share...and then its still all a chance click that works from its beginning to just grow more each day and you will know it when ya find-it..or it find you. Me,,still looking and still trying. Going on about two years HERE NOW,,"WHATS" that tell ya?? Welcome here and meet some people and call some your friends....have fun and share your smile.. Just let your words be seen and maybe a great she will find you her guy.. |

I know what you are talking about.
I'm a single Dad. My little girl is six. It seems that all the ladies around my age, already have grown children.And not interested in someone with children so young. Or they have never had children and don't want any kids around them. I have talked to some ladies that are younger than me. They have no problem with someone that has children. But they would like to have some themselves. That's not a real big problem. But I think it would be unfair to the new born child. As far as me being as old as I am. I'm 43. If we started now. I would be 50 when the child started school. I would be in my early 60's when the child graduates High school. Children have it bad enough nowadays. And I don't want to do anything to make it worse on someone that would be family. Well, anyway welcome. There are some very sweet people here. |
