[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my husband and I divorced and I hit the dating scene again, I was worried that it would be hard to meet men. I had never done online dating before and wow, a while new world. Even during covid, it’s not hard at all!

The problem is that it’s too hard to meet men I’d realistically be into.

I am in my mid 30s, attractive, two kids, financially independent and professionally successful. Here is what I’m finding:

1. The guys who want to have kids of their own like, yesterday, because they realize the clock is ticking. This is totally understandable but I really, really do not want any more kids.

2. The guys who are not in a great financial place because they are paying out tons of alimony and child support. I am not necessarily looking to be supported, but I am also not looking to support someone else. Realistically I think the lowest I could go from an income perspective would be about $250k for a single guy or that equivalent after alimony and child support has been deducted. Anything short of that and there’s going to be a pretty substantial income gap that will make me feel uncomfortable. Even that would present a large gap.

3. The overgrown lax bros who can’t believe I have kids. “Is that your nephew in the picture?”

4, The guys who are five foot seven and under- I really feel bad for them but I just can’t do that.

I’m sure there’s more... is it too much to ask to find a professionally successful guy ages 38-50 who either (a) has kids od his own or (b) doesn’t wNt kids is his own, but also doesn’t mind dealing with mine 50% of the time.

Where do these men exist?????[/quote]

-The vast majority of American don’t make more than 250k so that is very limiting.

-You should not have pictures of your kids in your online dating profiles! You could attract predators, my god.

-you need to state clearly on your profile that you do not want to have any more biological kids of your own

-You already have kids so there’s no rush. These standards are limiting, but hey, if it’s what you want, just keep looking. That’s fine and I am not being snarky when I say that. But you are limiting yourself to a small pool of men.[/quote]

Some sites have an option to click for “already have kids; do not want more”.[/quote]
