as a single father myself I can somewhat relate to trying to date when you have children from past relationship's. so I would be open to the idea of dating a single mother. to see where things lead and possibly blending the families together. if we happened to work out long term. however many single parents come with baggage plus drama from their past relationship's. that some people might not want to deal with long term. also the limited time they can spend together due to them dealing with their children might turn off some people.

As a father of one, and one in the way, if i were to be single i could find pros and cons both ways. Mothers would be more understanding of commitments and priorities. But someone with no ties would be more flexible to fit around my schedule.

It is much easier when she doesn't have children.
I have, in a few cases, dated one with kids, and some dead-beat, d-bag and absent father! It's a lot more challenging, and as much as I tried, it hasn't worked. Not blaming anyone, or judging anything. It's just really hard, dating a single mother, with kids, and almost no support from anyone else.Without. I don't have any either and don't want any. I don't want to be a father figure, and even if that's not her intention, the child (ren) will become attached as time goes on, and I them. If it doesn't work out. Plus, they take up a lot of her time and energy and I'd like a little "clingy" myself lol. I want her time and energy for us.
If I was older I would date a woman with kids then I could adopt them and have a little family :)
Depends on the woman. Idgaf if she has kids, but I care if she’s someone who works hard to make sure her kids are successful. If she’s one of those woman who dgaf about their kids then no
It doesn't matter to me. As long as she checks all the boxes for what I'm looking for in a relationship then it doesn't matter. I want a family anyways so kids aren't a deal breaker for me. It would be a plus if she was open to having one or possibly two more kids though.
Well I prefer without but I know that is not realistic all the time.
Without. I did a myTake on the reasons I wouldn't date a woman with kids.
Without kids. It really is just too much baggage most of the time.
Without kids, because it's easier.. I would rather us both grow and not have to worry about her kids likin me too.. Although if it was a toddler that's coo.. I wouldn't mind that..
I have been dating a single mom and found her very hot, eager to have sex, free in talking dirty. I believe that woman with kid can be more clingy if encouraged.
Yeah but then she's putting her kid priority number one. that's not cool
Definitely without kids.
I would choose without if I had to make a decision, but finding out a girl has kids wouldn't affect my decision to date her
if i get to. choose, no. kids as of yet.
Without. Though kids aren't a deal-breaker.
