[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks. I see. I guess it's more that I don't want to have new/more kids in my orbit. So if the woman doesn't have kids and is happy to become a stepmom to mine without having her own kids, that could work for me and maybe not be as hard to find?[/quote]

Possibly? But only if there’s some reason she can’t have kids. [b]Otherwise why would she not want them[/b]? PP who said look 45+ was surely right. What age range have you been dating? [/quote]

WTF?  I have kids and love them, and even I can understand that other women may not want kids for a reason other than not being biologically able to have them.  FFS, this is not 1890 and our only choice in life is to be spinsters or the property of a man and raise a family.

Kids are messy, loud, expensive and often rude.  The fact that they are also delightful, loving and interesting doesn’t  necessarily make up for the former.

OP.  I have kids, and I would date a man who didn’t want to be a Dad to my kids nor me a Mom to his.  I am interested in monogamous FWB type thing or 1-3;year monogamous relationship.  After my kids are in college, I would be more open to dating and building a relationship with a man w/ or w/ out kids.

I agree with another PP that people who don’t have kids of their own for the most part just don’t get parenting and aren’t helpful partners.  The exceptions are rare.

I think you would find many mothers who would be interested in dating but not getting into each other’s families.  The key would be finding  a partner with a  compatible custody schedule And who is flexible enough when that schedule changes.  Just because a relationship is not leading to marriage doesn’t make it real.  I am not interested in marriage anymore because of all I perceive that it requires/expects me to do or give up for another.  I am, however, interested in building relationships, cognizant that they might not last forever. [/quote]
