[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, why would any half way eligible single guy - including divorced fathers - want to enter into a relationship with a single mother with all of the attendant complications when there are lots of single women who don't have any of the issues that you would bring to a relationship?

Just being honest ...........[/quote]

I know you. I know you come to any thread about single moms dating to make them feel shitty about themselves. But I'll answer your question anyway.

Why would a man get involved in a relationship with a single mom?

- he likes her personality, looks, attitude, etc.
- they enjoy the same activities
- they have similar life goals and values
- they are sexually compatible
- he doesn't care about "raising someone else's kid"
- he doesn't assume that all women who have kids have baggage and complications
- he doesn't assume that all single women are without baggage and complications

Obviously there are men who will not look further than "she's got kids" before running away, but those are not the men that single moms should be trying to date. I was a divorced mom. I am remarried. My husband is not bothered by the fact that he is helping me raise a child made with someone else's sperm. He doesn't resent her dad and respects the different but functionally similar roles they both play in our daughter's life. DD's dad shares this sentiment and even when our co-parenting relationship hasn't been smooth, it has not negated all the other things about my relationship with my husband that we both enjoy.

Take your hateful troll bullshit elsewhere, please.[/quote]
