should i date a woman that has a child?

Answer 1

Absolutely not, unless you have a child too or are over the age of about 30. And then, you should consider her a second choice at first. Good luck!

Answer 2

Are you ready for the responsibility that comes with this? Not necessary becoming a father or father figure but being a good role model. Can accept that children are selfish and demanding and you will not be #1 in this gals life? Can you live with cancelled plans because the child got sick or the sitter canceled? Can you be unselfish and put them and their needs in front of your own? If you can answer yes to these questions then yes you should date a woman with a child. If you cant answer yes to these questions than you are not ready to date a woman with a child and it would not be fair to her or her child if tried to do so.
Just being brutally honest. I was a single mom with 2 kids at one time. Dating was tougher than most people can imagine. (if you put your children first)
If you are not ready, it is better to be honest than risk hurting both of them.

Answer 3

That depends on if you like her and if you are ready to become part of that childs life. When you date a woman that has children they come as a package, you cant just take one and leave the other behind. If you do not like kids then no you shouldnt date her, find someone w/o kids.

Answer 4

Most deffinetly, a child is not a henderence to a relationship, if anything you will grow to bond with that child and he or she may need that male figure in thier life, if things progress you and she can have a child and your family only grows. in most cases ive seen men that fall in love with the child as much as the woman, remember they come as a package hopefully the childs biological father is not a deadbeat and financially is taking care of the child then that may be something you want to evaluate, but if so, that can only enhance a relationship, a child is a beautiful thing and it will only bless you to be in their life as much as they are in yours, if you love this woman, and she is a good mother, imagine what she will be to your child. Love has no color, no finances and no circumstance, if you love her, you will have to love the child and if your a good person at heart that wont be hard. luv always envy

Answer 5

The child is not the one you're interested in dating. It is either you want to date the lady or not. If you have to wonder about her being a mother, then you are not ready for that sort of relationship.

If she's a good mother - try to find out - that will be a plus. It will show what's in her heart. Give it a try - you are not asking her to marry you, just to go out with you.

Answer 6

Only if you are willing to accept the child as part of the deal. As a single mother myself, I would never date a guy that didnt accept my child as well. Its all or nothing in a situation like this.

Answer 7

Why not its not like she has a disease.Be real man, a woman with a child should be very loving and kind.Why would you hesitate if you really are interested.Just understand its a package deal.Good luck!!

Answer 8

If you like the woman why not. Depending on your age it may be difficult to find a female with children. Who knows you may get to meet this kid in future and like each other and play a good male role model for him/her. Life is too short to be so picky just because someone has a family already.

Answer 9

that all depends on if you would be able accept that child.
think of it this way if you were to get married that child would be like yours you would need to treat that child as if was your own.
If you act differntly with that child than that child his going to hate both you and the mom, expesspally you.

Answer 10

Why shouldn't you? She is human just like you are and is in need of companionship just like you. It takes a bit more understanding and patience as her child or children's needs will come before yours.
