Question for the single folks - Do you have general rules when it comes to dating someone with kids? Or if you are a single parent, what are some of your dos and don't?
I don't expose my son to everyone that I go out with for many reasons. Nothing pisses me off more than someone who's known me for about a minute trying to tell me what I should and should not do with my son.
Although I LOVE kids, I don't want to get too familiar with someone else's children, and I don't want anyone getting too familiar with my son. Relationships come and go and I don't think that it is healthy to expose a child to that.

Been there, done that. I have dated women with children and it's something I'm not too crazy about.

At my age there are not too many men who dont have children by way of marriage or other relationships. I dont mind dating a man who has children but from past experience, I would hope thet they are grown and not attached to daddy so much that he cant focus on a relationship.

The first thing i look for is MENTAL STABILITY. A lot of women have been hurt BAD, REAL BAD, and got a case of THE GET BACKS. , and don't even seem to see it, themselves. Some men try to get around it, and as long as they get some leg, they don't care because the relationship ain't gonna grow anyway. which pisses these women off more......... Second, I love to see, a women who really interacts with her child or children. if they seem to click, they usually do ,when I'm not around. Third, must have a job!, not in between jobs, a JOB!!!! Four, must keep herself UP No daddy drama, within the last six months!!! NO SHAQ LIKE DADDY'S, still in love with her I have dated a women with a handicapped child, and it's hard for men not to step in, BUT!!! it's a tricky call for the men, because if you ignore the child, your a foot out the door and if you do too much, you could be encroaching on some type of private space!!! ,you may not be aware of. Lastly, is she a fun person to be around, I hate bitter people.

With that said, dolphinfan, I do know that the older I get, the odds of finding a woman single and childless gets smaller and smaller.

BrotherB, if I tell you a secret, you promise ,not to TELL . like men. there are groups of women, who don't have children, or no more then one. The problem with us, is we tend to congregate, in small areas!!!. Thats why I like to travel. As you get older it gets get smaller, BUT!!! they are there, like Good men with no children. All but three of us,(my friends) have children, and the one's that do, have been married over 18 years!!!!. If you could somehow, learn , how to look at the Forrest, the trees the bushes, the grass, instead of just looking at the OBVIOUS, sites, You will see them. BUT HURRY, TIMES RUNNING OUT. AND THEY NEED MEN, to help make BABY'S!!! I'm not joking either!!
