Someone is out there for you... just keep looking - many women marry men with children... try looking around while taking your daughter to the places she loves to go.. you may find a single mom at the park, mall, library, or at other activities your child loves... just give it time and keep your eyes open.

Then obviously you are looking in the wrong places or perhaps at the wrong types of females. There are plenty and I mean plenty of women who dig a guy with kids and want to try and help him with them. It is the maternal instinct in many women that wants them to help. As for finding a soulmate, if you have any hobbies or interests then perhaps you could join a group with like minded interests and who knows your might find a female to share your life with there. Sorry to hear about the loss of your wife and your daughters mother but as it appears time does heal many things. And although your wife will be with you forever in your thoughts, I'm certain that she would want for you to be happy and share your life with another women, Gosh I don't know how old your daughter is but if she is school age who knows you may even meet a single mother at a school function. Whatever you do don't go barhopping looking for love as this is not a good place to find romance, unless your looking for the one night stand kind. Best of luck to both you and also in finding someone with whom to share your life.

I am sorry for your loss. It takes roughly 1 year for every 5 years of marriage to get emotionally healthy after any loss of relationship. I want to encourage you to stay focused on your daughter while you are looking.
It will take a VERY special woman to take on a "package deal" and you have not shared how old you or your daughter are. I am 50 and have a 9 year old son. I found my soulmate and she loved the idea of "having two "men" to love, and to love her" and she and my son absolutely adore each other. She has two teenagers who get along with us as well, and it is awesome.
So, I want to encourage you to not settle for "almost" but for the total, real deal. SHE IS out there, and when YOU are ready, she will appear.
My best to you.

i am very sorryfor your loss however with children it is somewhat dificult to acquire a new soulmate instantly. SOme women have no problems accepting a man with children however you have to be very careful and protect your child from people who may ill treat her. A soulmate is someone who understands you and accept you and will not ask you to change anything about yourself.........i am sure there is someone out there but you ave to be verycareful who you chose..............please take care of your daughter while searching and look for some one who will also love her as a mother will and can accept her as her own. I am sure you will find someone, it takes time but the responsibility is yours to find someone good and honest and someone accepting.............Good luck

If you have an older daughter many women my feel like she wont respect her. The child doesn't want anyone to replace her mother nor do a woman wants to. Depending on your situation it can be good or bad. For me I doesn't matter. I accept man with or without a child. It up to the man if I stay or not. If you are a good man it shouldn't matter if you have a child.

I know it sounds hard, but the best way to find love is to take time to get to know yourself and love will find you.
I was given this advice after my divorce....it took some time for me to try it. After a few months....I found the one I was meant for....we are getting married in a few week. As far as your daughter? My husband-to-be has two small boys, they are 2-1/2 and 1-1/2.....I love them as much as my own kids.
Try not to rush things....don't have every woman you meet get to know your daughter the first thing....make sure things are good between the two of you first. Depending on the age of your daughter, you could spend the time getting to know her. Losing her mom had to be hard on her as well, is she ready for someone new in your life? Make sure she understands that you are not expecting her to replace her mom with somebody else in her heart.
Good Luck

Somebody who likes your daughter and loves her is the best for you to choose as your soulmate.
Not the other way around.
It is not easy to live with step mother. It is worst when real mother is dead not just somewhere and divorced with Dad. Not easy to find kindness from step mother.
You have to put your daughter in front of your need.
Or put your daughter in boarding school. ( I dont know how old is she).
Here in my country, usually daddy married younger sister of his lost wife.

If they will not accept you bc you have a daughter, then you do not need or want anyone like that anyway. Find someone who will love you both. Within time, it will come. Try meeting single parents like at children's places or parks or something similar to that.

First, let me say I am sorry for your loss.
Second, women may be weary thinking you are looking for a new mommy. Which ofcourse you are in a sense. They may not want to compete with a memory.
