I am a single father of 3, how do i meet a woman?

Question

Ive been on my own with my 3 kids now for going on 7 years, she was a drug user and cheated on me. Needless to say i'm a bit reserved when it comes to letting a new woman in my life, but im lonly.

Answer 1

Sounds like you are a great guy! Any woman would be happy to be with you. There are some christain dating sites out there. There are women out there that have children too and are having troubles finding a good guy. Hope you find what your'e looking for! Best of luck!

Answer 2

First, make sure that you're really ready to date/don't carry too much baggage--'cause it'll just get in the way of your future happiness. Second, join an organization or volunteer. Pick something that you're interested in (like sports or pottery or whatever), and find a local club that deals with that. At the least you'll meet fun new people, and at the best you'll meet someone to hook up with. There are also singles groups out there, which might be a good idea. Stay away from bars...unless you want to go home with a stranger and wake up with a fun new itchy rash, few people find happiness there. And drinking is never a good way to connect with people. Try the online thing if you want, make sure to put a photo of yourself on your profile b/c most women won't look at ones without a photo.

Answer 3

You sound really sweet and I'm sure you are going to find the right woman for yourself. Just be yourself, after all you don't want a woman who doesn't want all that comes with you. I've been on my own with my son for 6 years so I understand where your coming from on the dating front. You could look into dating services if you want to speed up the progress. Good Luck :)

Answer 4

I'm a single dad with 3 kids for 10 years and i've nearly always had a girl to date. Women want men who are financially strong, good looking and confident. The kids aren't baggage, they're your life. Any woman who doesn't understand that, you don't want. Be confident in yourself and put yourself out there...the grocery store, bookstore, work, church, even the internet dating sites have worked for me. Good luck!!

Answer 5

I read a study that said there are 70 times more single mothers then single fathers. of course they refer to those as the ones who have the kids all the time. shouldn't be too hard. If I were you I would do a google search in your area for single parent get together they do have them in many towns and cities. finding the one will take the personal touch so if your trying to find her on line and hopefully getting to meet it may take a long time. Best to look in these groups in person.

Answer 6

I wish I knew what to tell you.You sound very nice and very eager to find a loving relationship,which is what everyone wants.I think the best way to find a relationship,isnt to look for it.Sometimes we try so hard to find it,that it is never found.Sometimes if we arent looking for it,it just will hit you,and you will know when it does.When the time is right,it will happen!

I truly wish you all the happiness in the world.One day you will find love again,just dont ever give up on it!!!!

Good luck!!!

Answer 7

i was gonna say u can get a woman through ur kids , women for the most part love kids and u never know at the super market u could meet a woman and the kids there are a plus

Answer 8

Just being active in your kids lives should give you plenty of opportunities to meet single moms. Lord knows, I'm always hoping to meet a single dad at one of my son's basketball games. But single moms are way more plentiful than single dads, and a woman with her own kid(s) wouldn't consider your kids to be "baggage".

Answer 9

I , having been in a similar situation , found that recreational classes were a great way to meet people of similar interests . there are probably a few art , or maybe a sky-diving lesson that you would like , and that way you aren't meeting someone with the pretext of maybe dating them .

Answer 10

From what you've mentioned, I don't think you'll have a problem, aside from the trust issues you must have lingering. If I weren't married, I'd stalk you!
