Single Dad here. 6 years now. Full custody. I am not young anymore, 61. Have had full custody. Pretty hard to find a date with work full time and adult children now. Only the youngest is living at home. It's difficult for me to figure out what women want these days. Some seem to be well off and want to vacation all the time (I am not in that position) or they want me to take care of them financially. Can;t do that either. The true lose in all of this is my children. ExW moved in with her AP who lives down the street and married right after divorce was final. She has had one conversation with the kids in which she told them to get over it and if they can't do that, go to therapy. Another Christmas approaches and there will not even be a card from her to them. But that's ok, we are all in a good place now and we have a wonderful Holiday together. Maybe one day a woman will somehow come in to my life again but if not, oh well, will soon be expecting my first grandchiild

Because you're a bad woman? I find that women who seek, and women who get, full custody are nasty self-centered bitches. Best to avoid them.

When I was single I wasn't put off by a guy being a single Dad. My guy friends would never date a single mom, though. I think it's because women are more nurturing and we're willing to open our hearts and arms to more people. My guy friends simply didn't want to raise another man's child or have his leftovers as they so juvenilely put it.

I, as a mid 30s single male, would "date," and by that I mean f4ck, a hot single mother. But I will NEVER, EVER raise another man's child.

NEVER

Fingers crossed you don't get to raise any child.

Speak for yourself. When I was single, I wanted nothing to do with a man's kids. I dated a single dad, but never saw or met his kids (by choice) and dumped him when I was ready for something serious. I didn't want to be a step-parent.

do you think most would prefer to date women with children or childless women?

Divorced dad here with 50-50. Women without kids are the unicorn. Less baggage, plenty of time to spend on me, and tighter.

Also, been dating for 4 years and have yet to introduce kids to any woman I am seeing. Despite my exW being a hoe I'm certain when the kids tell her I am seeing someone (especially someone younger, thinner) she will go crazy again.

So are you saying you prefer to date women without kids? What age range?

Yes, I prefer it. Age range so far: 22 to 55, with most being in their 40s.

Of women with children, the ones with full custody are to be avoided, as are the ones who think they deserve full custody but don't have it.

You sound delightful, and like a real romantic.

Getting divorced will kill the romantic impulses of any man.

Until he gets his dick in another woman, and the fog of happy feelz causes him to forget the reality that she's no different from the crazy ho he divorced.

LOL internet dating sites are full of women who are desperate and have low standards (mostly single moms over 40).

I would say dads that seek/are granted joint or full custody tend to be a little more emotionally mature. Hence, they date 40-somethings.

The dads who are OK with every other weekend are probably dating 25 year olds.

Makes sense

Previous 41 year old here. I'm actually a little guarded if a dad has a light custody schedule. Makes me wonder about him. So in thinking about it, I tend not to contact guys who have kids but very little custody:

"Low standards": does that mean sex worker or merely not insanely high standards? You know, someone who says yes and makes time but isn't a model.
