is it worth dating a man that has a daughter who is 10 yrs old? Is it tough?

I think that some women don't like it but it's their loss. Children are a gift from god and a real women would relize that and to see a man who would take care of a child by himself is something you don't find everyday. Just wait and she'll come. God be with you.

it is. but if you think the guy is worth it then go for it. just watch out for baby mama drama. make sure he has a good relationship with the mother, that says a lot about who he is as a person/man. i dated this guy who had 3 kids and he was always talking about their mom with anger and finally i realized he was jealous because she was seeing someone else. i didnt think it was worth it, but there are good guys out there taking care of business and their children and know how to act. dont try to be her mother she already has one. dont tell him how to raise her unless he asks for your opinion and even then be careful. take it slow, wait until he asks you to meet her then wait some more. dont throw yourself all over him when she is around, she might hate you for that. just be nice and try to find out what she likes to do. come up with some activities you all can do together.

Oh heck yeah, it is friggin hard. Don't try to force her to like you, keep it on the low and try to find out what she likes and get a little interested. Don't you dare act like her mom cos then, u so gotta go. Let her know you care and you don't wanna take her daddy away from her. Trust me, it'll work. it happened to me 6 yrs ago, my daddy brought in a woman too. I know the feeling and just so you know, the relationship was over in a month.

yes, its kinda hard esp if he has his kid/kids 24/7.
but it won't be a problem if his willing to make time for and his kid/kids together.
i used to date a single father(actually i'm a single mom too) he has 2kids...at first we both doing fine he accept that i have a child and i do too (w/him)....but he found a better job that makes him more busier than usual then conflict start to arise...he doesn't have time for me and ofcourse if he has extra time he wants to spend it to his kids which understandable but sometime you cannot help it you feel left behind :( that relationship didn't last......but we are both friends his not in any serious relationship right now and me i was but i kinda messed it up cz of my ex......
but on your case remember everyone is different.......maybe yours will work......just remember if your dating a single dad make sure that you are patience.....
also the way to his heart is find away to get to know his child.....remember don't say anything negative about his child thats a big turn off.....other than that your good to go...good luck

Depends how far your into the relationship with this guy, if its just dating then personally I wouldn't go for it because I wouldn't want to deal with someone elses children and sometimes they get in the way...BUT if you are willing to be a mother roll mother for this girl then sure go for it! I mean people are different, so it really depends on what your willing to sacrafice.

It is tough because they're usually spoiled by their dads and that puts pressure on the relationship.
