Why is it so hard for a good single dad who is attractive and full of Southern hosptality to find a women who is honest and can earn respect? Can anyone HELP:)

A lot of women don't want any one else's kids
Sorry sad fact of life

not all are like that... i have dated guys that had children and others that didnt. it was no big deal

yep i agree i would be happy to date any man with children,,weather they live with him or not,,

Interesting, I have the same problem in reverse! I'm a single mom with a great kid, and no one appreciates us! I am honest to a fault, love life. What's up with that?

Mine are grown

and I love kids!

I was a nursery school teacher as well -so kids are fine!

Well personally no little ones for me!

Mine.are grown. It's me and my man time!

You are young with big responsibilities that many women would not want to take on. I think few women really believe that another woman is going to stay in the background as their child/grandchild is being raised by someone else; especially another woman.

Part of your difficulty in dating may be the fact that you smoke. Many parents don't see that as in the best interest of children.

.

hey me to i have child.and i dont get dates thrown at me.just keep on loveing the life,,dont give up , good luck to you

I have twin boys of 8 years
3rd graders
I used to worry about women not wanting to date me
These days it does not bother me anymore
There are plenty of women that don't mind the boys.

Well its not osmosis. Good thing your putting yourself out there.

I would not be worring about why they don't want to date because you have a child.This ia a problem for both {m,f}People just need to understand our children are not options.
I would not even give someone a second thought if they had a problem with kids...Just hang in there and you will find someone that will be happy to be there for you and your child!
Good luck to all us single parents!It's hard but well worth it.

single fathers do have it rough, I have many of them in my childcare center. I hear the storys all the time that he can not date anyone because no one wants to be the childs mommy...

The child already has a mother, regardless if the mother took off and left the child with the father. At least it shows the father is being Responsibule, YOU know that you will always be taken care of, you know he will always cary a good job, YOU also know that he can love... LOVE>.. because if he can raise his child and think that much of his self.... to do this. Then This single father is able to love from his heart and soul.

I have never met a single father yet in 28yrs of taking care of kids that dose not want the best for his child.

Maybe someday women will stop going for the Jerks that abandon them, who abused them and disregard them as women.. And start dating real men who care enough about family.

and this goes for Women also, I have been a single parent for over 12yrs and people do not want to date a women with kids.

God bless all us parents we deserve to be loved just like any single person dose... We are single..... the only diffrents is this... We take care of other people not just areselfs.

I dont mind. The only thing that I would ask of him is to put his kids before anyone else. I wish you the best of luck.

Just curious...what do yo mean by earn respect?

I dont mind dating guys with children one bit

I'd rather date a dad whose kids live with him then the part time dad thing...

HUN I UNDERSTAND! I am a great catch myself and cant find a good guy to save my life so maybe good people are just not supposed to be happy.. maybe it's against the rules. I actually have a one yr old son myself that is amazing and so cute! But good luck

I don't mind guys with kids, I have a kid but will be going to college in 2 years so.
