    Plus my son's dad has bailed, which means no drama for my suitor. :/

    This is going to sound awful, but God, I could only hope mine would do the same! :laugh:

    There's not a lot of drama between him & I any longer but only because I ignore him at any and all costs except when it explicitly concerns the children and their wellfare. Anything that even hits to crossing over into my personal life, he gets shut down immediately. That may sound harsh, but I honestly can't deal with my ex without those kinds of boundaries set.

    As the mother of a child whose father bailed, no you don't. As long as he's a good dad to his kids, don't wish him away. They need him.

    Sorry to get all serious in here, and I understand that you don't get along with him and it would be nice not to have to deal with him, but kids need their dads if it's possible to have them.

    My ex is not allowed to drive down our street! My current boyfriend enforces that! He has to pick up and drop off the kids at the corner! Sounds harsh, but it was necessary, he is a real idiot!

    I completely understand where you're coming from so it's all good. "Good dad" is always a debatable opinion, though. :smile:

    I was always civil before with him but it is actually for the best. He is completely worthless and it's easier for everyone for him to jsut stay gone. :wink:

    Not at all things happen for a reason. What sometimes starts as husband and wife, they find they are better off as friends in the end or enemies, depending on the circumstnaces. One man's loss can def be another's gain.

    Divorced woman would be fine if it's one divorce, more than that I'd have to think about it.

    Single mom would be fine if I wanted kids, but since I don't, I would not date her.

    OK, but what about this? I'm a single mom, but my one and only child (and I don't want more) is 17 and a senior in high school. She still lives with me, but she's pretty much an adult at this point. A lot less responsibility on my part, she's pretty much raised.

    So, would you write off a woman like me if you liked everything else about her? There are degrees of "single mom," so saying you wouldn't date one because you don't want kids doesn't really cover it all.

    Having a guy judge you before he even knows you is bad news.

    i disagree. finding a guy that knows exactly what he wants and is willing to walk away from boobs and a tight little bum in order to find it is a great thing.

    just saying.

    So a woman is only the sum of her body parts?

    (And I'm not down on guys who don't want to date single mothers. It's this specific comment that rubbed me wrong and could be applied to any man OR woman, parent or not.)

    ok where did you get that?

    the question is asking if a divorced woman/single mother is less attractive... i'm assuming that is referring to aesthetic appeal as well as potential interest in their personality and other qualities.
    whether you choose to admit it or not, the first thing that USUALLY draws one person to another is a physical quality (i.e. boobs, tight bums).

    therefore: if a guy says "hmmm... even though that lady is a perfect 10 and would make every one of my friends jealous, the fact that she is divorced and has children and that isn't at all what i want means i should probably learn a bit more about her before deciding to date her or maybe i should just move on and hold out for what i REALLY want" - i can respect that. yeah, it might sting a bit. but it's better than dating someone for a while, getting your emotions all tangled up and then all of the sudden he starts acting shady and finding someone new to play with that DOES meet his criteria and then leaves you because he wasn't enough of a man to stand up when he should have?

    where's engineman... he'll back me up on this one...

    This coming from the other side, I married a guy with a kid. It's great now, but I wouldn't do it over if I had the opportunity. When my single gal pals ask me if they should date a man with kids, I always tell them to run. :laugh:

    A single mom? I would think she is more grown up and has her act together.

    Amen, sista. My ex passed away two months after we divorced. It was amicable, but for my kids sake, I would give anything for him to be around, even if he was hard to get along with. They miss their daddy everyday (its only been a few months) and it breaks my heart.

    i don't think it's your job to decide what someone else wants or doesn't want.

    I agree. IF he is going to be a good dad. Mine has never help financially and since we separated about 2 years ago, would only see his son once every 2 months. This year he has only seen him twice, won't return phone calls and lives in the same town! But he's almost 25 and has an 18 year old girlfriend, Pathetic.

    The guy I've been dating for a couple months has just met my son, and is a great guy who loves/wants kids. He's the kind of guy that would eventually want to fill the void that my ex left.

    pfffft you are telling me you won't date someone like Jennifer Aniston even if she had kids??
    First off I can't stand her. But yes I am serious, I don't like kids so I would not have a relationship with someone who has them, no matter how attractive that person is. Unless you're talking about "dating" in a much more casual, temporary sense.

    There is a point here. We don't know what the situation is that she would like not to have this individual in her children's lives, BUT at the same time, children with absent fathers do have a more difficult time adjusting socially. More so, if the dad has chosen not to be present.
