single moms have a lot to juggle and a lot going on in their life. They are truly special because they are doing the job of parenting on their own which never gets a day off.

I think it is a little bit to harder to date a single mom because of their schedule, but I think you usually find that they are more enjoyable to go to dinner with because they appreciate the time they have away and realize that they have a lot to offer in a realtionship and not just as a mother.

It's no different than single non-moms... there will always be easy ones, and there will always be the ones you need to trick into sleeping with you.

lol
Carl01 is right.

Yeah, I think it can be true in many cases...

There are a few categories of women who are on average easier picks (for sex - nobody said it was easy being a single mum):

- The young single mum who got her kid before her 20s or early 20s, and got dumped by the guy just after... So she would generally be less than 30 (22-26) and looking for some men who is "Mr Right" or who will "treat them right" (in their own words)... Well generally, they kind of miss the fun of going out, so it's fairly easy for a man to "matter" in their life (as someone said, they appreciate the time out when they have some) and they are fairly gullible as well.
To get these you need to lie and just play along.

- The 30+ y.o. woman who has just divorced from a LTR and has had children, and is now looking for some fun, really easy pick for a man who is less than 30 y.o (early 20s). She didn't have that many partners during her 20s so she wants to catch up.
For these, you need to just be direct.

Probably other categories as well.

Sorry, I didn't make the world this way. :flowerforyou:

The problem with that is any of those could apply to any woman or man at any given time.

"Single middle aged men are not ever interested in a relationship"

Those never married have never been very good around ladies so have accepted it won`t happen for them.
For this reason they are merely looking for one night stands as the best they can get.

Those just coming out of a marriage or LTR are burned out and tired of the work it takes so just don`t want to go down that road again.


The point being any broad based accusation can have "facts" asserted that make it plausible and in some cases probably true.
That does not however mean it is an unalterable rule simply because one can present those assertions.

As for the topic of the thread I can easily suggest that they are less likely to be easy as accused because

A)The mid 20s mom of an infant now on her own is far too preoccupied with being a good mom then to let a guy into her life easily.

B)The late 30s,early 40s divorcée is often feeling jaded and and angry about being rushed into intimacy and marriage at an early age,knows her body and how to satisfy herself so has no need to accept every guy that come along as a sexual partner or any guy quickly.

See,just as logical in the opposite manner and neither covers women accurately as a group.

I am apparently. lol

Can`t prove it by me.

OOOOH! Carl slides that one in there! Nice one man! Nice one!

Or they are really good with women, not interested in LTR (Russel Brand's style). I could live with that until I reach my 35 personally (the clock doesn't tick really for us men). Not saying I wouldn't marry either if I met the right person, but you know... Life could be worse than chaining girlfriends.

Plus the fact that men are less likely to have to keep the children full time (compared to women, on average), thus having more free time to date/go around.

That does not however mean it is an unalterable rule simply because one can present those assertions.

Agree, but we deal with stats here It's just easier... on average. Of course it doesn't mean 100%!

A)The mid 20s mom of an infant now on her own is far too preoccupied with being a good mom then to let a guy into her life easily.
B)The late 30s,early 40s divorcée is often feeling jaded and and angry about being rushed into intimacy and marriage at an early age,knows her body and how to satisfy herself so has no need to accept every guy that come along as a sexual partner or any guy quickly.

Yeah, but it gets on your nerves being on your own with a child - it is tiring. Some mums would like to rest on someone's shoulder sometimes.
And the guy who appears as "the right man" (so, with the right approach) will end up with them anyway. Why? Ask any of these ladies if they would like to meet their "Mr right" and 99.9% of them would say yes anyway (isn't it what we are all after anyway?).
I've never seen cheaters and liars approaching women saying "Hello, I'm a cheater and a liar".

Not saying you're going to win 100% of the time (never happens), but it's just a fact that a 30 y.o. single mum whose only channel to meet guys is online dating because she is too busy with the kid is an easier target than the 23 y.o. Miss Popular who has 5000 friends on Facebook, works as a model at the weekend and has got a list of suitor longer than my arm.

So yeah. Easier (rather than easy perhaps).

Ug

Who says that a 30 year old single mom only has time to meet people through online means? Sure, I've done my fair share of dating as a result of online sites, but I've also had many dates with people who I met through friends, or work, or a night out (And meeting people "organically" has often lead to a higher caliber of dates.) Just because we have limited free time doesn't mean we'll settle for a quick shag with an anonymous lech because we're lacking adult attention.

I'm far more selective in my old age and cannot believe some of the people I dated when I was young and carefree. I realize in my "old age" that I'm a catch, my kid is awesome, and holding out for someone of substance who will appreciate me (us), and not just my cooter.

It's a matter of finding someone who is busy themselves who can appreciate the time limitations, instead of being a selfish donkey who feels that a woman's attention needs to revolve around him 100% of the time.

Just my $.02

I am not a single mom...not a mom at all, BUT my best friend is a single mom. We separated within a month of each other and I started datiing before she did, and was probably considered easier than she was. It was not that way when we were younger, but she had a small child to think about, where I did not have that responsibility.......so NO dont think single moms are easy
