Would you date a woman in her mid twenties with 2 toddlers?

Why do people consider children to be "baggage"? Series answers, please.

If you meet someone don't rush or have sex until you both commit to only date each other. You'll probably attract more men with kids, but ones without will also be there. My gf's husband never had kids, she has two. He ended up being closer to them then their own bio dad.

Very good advice. Good luck, OP.

Because it’s how the world works. People are inherently selfish and don’t want to take care of another person’s offspring.

Additionally, people who procreate with unstable or unfit partners tend to be stupid. Why bother with people who purposely bring children into unstable home lives? It’s extremely selfish.

I wouldn't. But I don't have kids of my own.

For a LTR, you will probably need to focus on men who already have kids. Getting laid shouldn't be difficult though.

Speaking as a woman, I would not date a divorced man with children. Ex wife and husband--double trouble.keep looking

If Antoine Arnault, the most eligible bachelor in Europe, went for a single mother of three, then you can most certainly find a man in DC to go for a single mother of two.

You would be completely normal in military circles. I was 26 when I had my kid in this area, a single mom at 27. I attracted men who wanted a family and kids.

I’ll add that these were usually never married, childless men. You might attract some guys who would like to “save” you as well. I think men 28-34 would be good for you. I’d caution against going too much older though. The most marriage minded guys aren’t waiting until 40 to settle down.

Because they are! They are a massive consideration in the person's life plans and decisions, they cost a ton of money, they are hard work and raising them can test the boundaries of the marriage of the two people who love them most in the world. Now add in a person who will never love them that much yet has to deal with all the frustration they bring, share their partner, interact with an ex, etc. Children are baggage. Not in a bad way for the parent but they mean that life with that person is a LOT different and more complicated than life with a person who doesn't have them. Just common sense.

Kids are great, if they're yours. But nobody wants to deal with other people's children. Aggravation, expense, inconvenience, back-talk. Screw that. Not to mention, it is a given that the children of divorce will hate, hate, hate their mom or dad's replacement.

LOL he married a rich supermodel. She's not exactly the usual fat stupid money-hungry single mom desperately seeking a "good man" through online dating. Note to the single moms out there - you are not a supermodel. If you think you're going to attract a handsome CEO, you are hilariously deluded.
