What is it like to date a single Mom/Dad?

Basically it takes two possible forms: either

A. It's a really low intensity relationship where you send three texts every day and see each other for a standing Saturday night date; or

B. Congratulations, you're a parent now, to children who are super suspicious of you.

It’s a lot of work for very little reward. I don’t recommend it unless you’re a natural giver who doesn’t care for returns on your investments.

What do you mean?
Would you explain please?

Single parents have to prioritize their children. Even IF you become a priority, and you won’t if you’re not into the instant family donation plan, you will never be top priority. You’re going to get canceled and rescheduled because the kids come first, or they can’t get a sitter, or they’re not ready for the kids to meet you… the list is endless. Then IF you are about taking on being instant dad wallet, you still have no discipline rights. I don’t care what age they are, if you let anyone around you with the knowledge that there are ZERO consequences for shitting on you and fucking you up, they absolutely will; bar none. What are you going to do when a kid hits you in the face with a bat, or steals your money and credit cards? Nothing. Otherwise go to jail, go directly to jail, do not pass ‘go’, do not collect $200. I can’t speak on specifics about single dads, but all single moms want is for a guy to lessen her financial burden. If you’re kool with just sending someone money and rarely seeing them, if ever, and you’re kool with getting shit on by little bastards with no discipline, date a single mom. That’s exactly what you’re going to get.
Unless you get a shitty mom. THEN you’re the reason she’s abusing and neglecting her kids. Don’t be that asshole.

The mother has a little girl of 3 years old. Does everything you said apply if that girl grew up? The mother is respectful and does everything to keep both of us, the baby and me. What's your opinion

I dont think any man should date any single mothers.

Remember you are placed in third

first comes her kid second her baby daddy and third and final YOU.

I have been dating a single mother for a year and everything is going well. I won't deny that I was already thinking about your words. Let's hope things will go well.

Maybe if she has 1 kid. 2 or more? Just cut your losses and look elsewhere.

It’s a bit challenging but rewarding

I have already seen a single mom for a year even though I loved her and her baby girl. I don't mind the lite extra pack. She also treated me like a part of her small family.

I have two kids and I have a boyfriend who isn’t the father of my kids and he accepts that and for that it makes me love him more

[Asker]

That sounds good. I am not a father and have never been before, however, I am happy to see her child. I'm really trying to raise that child and give her extra love and care. It's a nice feeling to experience the feeling of being in a family.

My boyfriend doesn’t have any kids either but he loves my kids and it’s so cute watching him play with them it warms my heart and it makes my family feel more special
