[quote=Anonymous]Ignore half the posts in this thread with women putting you down. They assume a man has to meet every requirement on a 100-item list to be datable.

I'm male and have a good friend who recently got divorced, similar age to you, and also not great living conditions since a huge part of his income goes to child support and related costs.

Your target market is single mothers. They already have kids, and they already know it's tough to date when you have them.

Online dating can be tough, as it's tough to come across as your best on there. He had mild sucess there, only with women who live at least an hour away from here and were willing to drive to see him (not many options where they live, I guess).

The other place to meet people is in-person. You have your kids a few days a week. Guess who is at the same activities as you go to with them: single mothers! For example, this is the time of year when a lot of counties around here have their county fair. Go with your kids during the day (nighttime is teenagers making trouble) and they're all over the place. Same with malls at stores kids like; and playgrounds; museums, you name it. I'm happily married, but I notice when I take my kids to any of these events, there's a lot more mothers there solo wtih their kids than fathers, but a long shot. Also, they can see how you interact with your kids and how you're a good father.

Statistically, the odds are in your favor. DC in general has more single women than men, and that goes up as age rises.

Just work on any self-esteem problems you have first. A confident man is always attractive.[/quote]
