Hi Mike: Try Match.com or True.one dating websites. On the websites, you list the kind of people you'd like to meet and who are in your situation. You didn't say what you do for an occupation, so it's hard to help you. Re-word your question and you'll get more responses. Parents without Partners is a good place to meet other people. I received 256 emails from Match.com and you have to sort out the people. True.one screens out married folk, and felons. Get involved in ball room dancing, it's a good way to meet people, learn to dress well and sharpen your dancing skills. Stay honest about your family. You just have not met the right lady yet. A friend of mine married a man with 3 children, and she had 3 children of her own. This was her 3rd marriage. She is a 1st grade teacher with a PHD, and he was the school janitor. They were attending the same counseling center, and the counselors saw they would be a good match and introduced them.

I'll date you (just kidding). I'm 52, with no house and just now getting a car.
I messed up my life, but though God's help, am straitening it out. A divorce
support group helped me. Have you ever gone to Parents Without Partners?
Do you live in an isolated area; sometimes I have called this dating hot line and
there are some older ones on there. You might get lucky and meet someone nice!

I would say, not to mention the kids at first. I mean, if you are going out on a date, you are not bringing the kids. I am also in the same boat. I recently dated someone, who I was "friends" with before dating. He loved the fact that I had kids, because he did too. I think at our ages, most people have kids, and if they don't, then there must be something wrong with them and you wouldn't want him anyhow.

Hmmm...its not your age that puts them off , its just if you have kids they think you might still have EMOTIONAL BAGGAGE...you just have to show them you are STABLE , ready for a relationship , no ties , not still in love with your ex , totally emotionally free to start a new relationship....ane then...wow the socks off them!!! :-)
...oh - and i would say - DON'T hide the fact that you have kids...thats not a good start...and you are in no way ashamed of your kids - so why hide them away like some dirty secret just to get a woman?...sounds like you are looking for a proper relationship - and thats not built on lies :-)
Oh...and if they don't like the fact that you have kids they can s*d off! Its a good test actually...at least they can make an informed decision , you owe them that

It will take time, try taking dancing lessons, or going to church or meeting a guy in the business world can be great. Women with kids find great men that are willing to step up to the plate all the time. It just takes time, you have to be patient and don't settle. Listen to your kids, if they don't like him for a good reason, don't go there.

try www.okcupid.com I found my boyfriend there and we have been together for 2 months. might not sound like much, but im happy. makes sure to answer lots of the personal questions so you can get a better group of matches. and be honest. put that you have children in your profile. I know a lot men who would be happy with a woman with children. Keep your chin up and your heart open

Maybe your are approaching the wrong women. Are you just looking for a beauty, or for a real woman? Many women have enough love to include your children.
