[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I have no interest in dating a man with kids. I am not looking for a commitment. I am looking for someone I can see once a week for awhile until it runs its course (6 months to a year or more is ideal). A man with kids is more likely to want to meet my kids and blend lives—I am not interested. I just need someone who can say “yes, let’s meet at x time and x date” and I need to know 24 hours in advance in case I need a sitter that day. All that is required is someone who can plan a little better. That’s it.

I don't know why would any man want to date you. You are physically, mentally and emotionally unavailable and no, those small windows in your rigid schedule do not count.
I'm a woman.

I had a boyfriend most of last year. It was not an issue. He could confirm plans. We met once or twice a week. It was fine.[/quote]

Most guys want either something very casual or something that could move into a serious relationship.  Sounds like you are not looking for either, which is totally fine, but this could be why there are issues finding a match.[/quote]

OP here: I agree. He said he does not want super casual...well he is acting like it now. It's bizarre. But I do agree, yes, it is hard when you don't want super casual or cohabitation/marriage. However, I have done a lot of reading about this and a lot of people in their 40s and 50s (I am early 40s) who are done with kids are in the same boat...call it relationship-lite...so I know I am not the only one who feels this way. But it is hard to run into people who do as well...[/quote]

why do you keep entertaining his BS?  just rip off the band-aid and dump the guy.  move forward with your life.  he's an asshat as nearly all of us have said, repeatedly.[/quote]
