What's wrong with a man with a child? The same thing that's wrong with a woman with children. The child factor. Men like to lay down and have sex with women with children but how many of those woman get married or are in a serious relationship? It's sad but true. I have three children and men hit on me all the time until they find out I have children. I guess they think of it as they would have to take on that responsibility like, (helping financially spending time in their lives) and other thing commitments they are not ready for or don't want. Then there the (ex-factor). Man always go back to their ex for sex or some kind of intimate relationship and that's hard for the new woman to deal with. People are shallow and feed their own needs and that's just the way it is.

maybe some women are just frightened about taking on somebody else's kid. Honestly - you sound like a dream guy - but having a kid thrown into the bargin just isnt some peoples idea of relationship bliss!!! you dont say what age are you - if you're kinda between 20-30 age, women that age just want to go out and have fun and not be worried about getting babysitters, if youre older maybe its just that the women feel they have done their duties when it comes to raising kids and dont want to be involved with that whole scenario again. Dont worry though - you'll find someone in time that will love you and your son.
I wish you luck - you sound like a great dad -and in my opinion the lady that gets you will be very lucky!

There are some women who see your son as competition and don't want to have to bid for your time. Others see it as you are just looking for a mommy to take care of him. I say you rock because you took responsibility and that would be something I would find extremely sexy in a man. You need to just keep your head up and keep looking...someone is out there for you I'm sure. In the meantime, enjoy the time with your son. Those moments make memories that last forever....and your son will appreciate them more than you know.

Aww. I think that it has a lot less to do with your status as a single dad and much more with the type of women you pursue. Personally (I have one child), I have no problem with a guy with kids....and I can't think of a mature female that I know (without kids) that would have a problem with it. Mostly women have concerns about men who have kids "somewhere" that they don't take care of, etc. Not with men that are involved with their kids' lives. Maybe try to meet women in different places. If you're always hooking up at the bar, chances are you're going to meet more party girls than down to earth women. What about getting your kid into an activity (mine's in martial arts) that would allow you to meet other (single) parents...or at least women that enjoy children? Good luck!

I've never dating anyone with a child, but I am sure one day i will. Nothing is wrong with being a single father. I think it says a lot of good things about you just by receiving custody of your child. A lot of woman don't want the drama of fighting with the other woman. I think that you should just talk to people, and hang out. i am sure that there is someone out there for just like there is someone out there for me.

Are you up front w/women about the fact that you have a child? I ran into a situation w/a guy where he didn't tell me until a couple months later. Its not the fact that you have a child, at least not for me, I just feel that its such an integral part of who you are that its definetly necessary to disclose pretty much immeadietly.

i would need more details but it could be a lot of factors like the child's age, plus when you date some one with children you have to worry about that other parent. I'm sorry your having a hard time finding a date/mate. take your time in choosing a date/mate because the person you choose has to be good for you and your child. trust me i know.

I think that its because it can be difficult for the child to accept a new woman into his/her life. It also may be because, as in my case, the child's mother may still be in the picture which can lead to an unpleasant situation. Try joining the PTA at your child's school or becoming more involved in extra curricular activities. Who knows? You may meet the woman of your dreams:)

I date guys that are single fathers. Some girls are just scared of the fact that someone is there to always get more attention. It's wierd. It never bothers me for that fact. Maybe you should start looking in other places....
Good luck!
