Should men date single moms?

[Anonymous]

Men should date whomever they want as long as the person is of age and does so voluntarily.

And what's with the constant belittling of single moms on here? Maybe she was conned, ditched, and chose life. How is that bad? Maybe she's widowed. Maybe a brother, sister, or close friend died and she adopted the children rather then let them go into foster care. The poorly-veiled assumption that all single mothers are trash is rather ignorant and sickening. One of my friends adopted her niece when the friend's brother and sister-in-law died. She is a far better person than 99% of the people I've met, and definitely a better person than I am.

Single Dad and Single Mom

[Anonymous]

If they want to. I've noticed most single moms end up married again so obviously someone is willing to date them even tho everyone in the comments here are saying no

[Vegasrunner]

@Apple1996 What percentage of single moms end up married?

[Opinion Owner]

@Vegasrunner just tried finding numbers on google but there aren't any. I imagine it'd be hard to keep track of. But from what I've seen irl most end up getting remarried. Like literally I go to my son's school and all the mothers 1st,2nd kids are from a different relationship and they are currently married again.
Even my own mom got with my dad while she was a single mom to my 5 older siblings. So just from what I've seen it's super common

[Vegasrunner]

@Apple1996 Personal experience is always a bad metric for generalizations. I would have to take into account the quality of school for one. If we're talking about a generic American public school then it stands to reason that lower value men are going to be around and they will take anything. However my hypothesis is as the bar is raised and value is increased less, HV men are going to settle for a single mom. How much does it cost to send your kid to that school?

[Opinion Owner]

@Vegasrunner I've lived in 5 different states. Every school for my kids there has been blended families. It's not necessarily personal experience it's just how the world is in current day. Even when i was a child (excluding my own family) there was blended families. Everyone damn near had a step dad/step mom. It's just what happens when families divorce.
And most of the time it's the single moms that move on to a new relationship since the single dads are weighed down with child support it makes it hard for them to date/move on

[Vegasrunner]

@Apple1996 What does this have to do w/ the cost of your child's school?

[Opinion Owner]

@Vegasrunner because I've sent my kids to multiple different types of schools in different areas. Some have costed, some haven't. Even done homeschooling and had homeschooling groups with families like that. It hasn't made a difference with types of families

[Opinion Owner]

@Vegasrunner all I'm trying to say is that these single moms move on. It's extremely common even tho these incel gag fucks won't date them other real men do

[Vegasrunner]

@Apple1996 Based on what you have said it's all the same demographic. Middle to low income families. Some men in that demographic probably would settle for single moms. If you're sending your kid to a basic public school then it stands to reason that you haven't created enough value in yourself to choose a woman that is for just you.

[Vegasrunner]

@Apple1996 I'm sure some men date single moms. Most guys don't have a lot of choices so they take what they can get. The original question was should men marry single moms? Which the answer is an easy know. I enjoy single moms to have fun w/. I'm banging two currently w/ a total of 7 kids between them, but under no circumstances would I marry one. What's in it for me to do so?

[musicbrain5]

If they want to, sure. That can be a lot to take on.

[Avicenna]

Hell no, unless they like drama and chaos. Start your own family rather than taking on someone else's.

[Anonymous]

In general, no. Unless a single mom got that way because she is widowed, odds are it is a reflection of poor character and bad choices, which is obviously a big red flag.

Also, fathers have virtually no rights in parenting and they get screwed in divorce court and child custody settlements. Why in the world would a man choose to put himself in that situation when the child isn't even his?

[Berethor]

Usually it's a bad idea, single moms have too much baggage.

[KrakenAttackin]

Hell no. Single moms make great fuck buddy's but no self respecting man should raise another man's seed.

[maximumpower]

Sure.

Just don't become close with her kid (s) unless you're truly close with her.

They all too often end up either hurt or emotionally broken.

[Anonymous]

Crazy single mother women with a child or children? No, I'm not gonna involve myself into that.

[Andridaca]

So long as the child is put into consideration, sure. Single moms need that stuff too, right?

[BJP21]

If your ready to become a step parent, Sure.

[LazerBean]

If they are single dads, yes.

[Vegasrunner]

@LazerBean Na, single dads and single moms are wayyyy different. I don't think there's anything wrong w/ banging a single mom, but I think most men would be making a huge mistake that will set them back for years if they take a single mom seriously.

[LazerBean]

The only thing a woman without baggage is going to get out of dating a single dad is becoming a single mom herself.

[Vegasrunner]

@LazerBean You dated a single dad b4?

[LazerBean]

LMFAO not in a million years.

[Vegasrunner]

@LazerBean So how would you know what women get out of dating single dads?

[LazerBean]

Because everyone with at least one eye and a brain knows that.

[Asker]

There was a woman who left the father because the child was autistic. She told the man she either abandoned the child or she will leave him. He chose the child and 1000s of dollars in donations. She came back after she saw the money he had got and the guy was stupid enough to take her back. I think most women will use their kids for child support and welfare and sympathy from other people. While a single dad actually cares about his child. And he actually has to work because the government is not giving him a free handout. After all, he is a man, and they expect him to handle everything himself. Women who date single dads are more satisfied with the dad because he has a work ethic and cares more for his children. He doesn't look at his children as tools to use to get money from the government. He has to work and pay his bills.

[LazerBean]

Wow that's a lot of assumptions off of a single anecdotal occurrence. I don't really value anyone of any gender who has sex and produces children with people who turn out to be losers parents and create a broken family though.

[misogynistic_pig]

Only if they are looking for casual sex.

[AsaKyo]

Only if they wanna be step dads, I guess

[Asker]

Can I have the honor of dating you?

[AsaKyo]

I'm not a mom lmao..

[Asker]

Well, I thought you were. I guess you don't want me. Fair enough.

[AsaKyo]

Why would I be a mom at 20? 💀

[Asker]

I meant just you. I know you're not a mom.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Only if they want to, I'm not gonna though.

[Anonymous]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccckkkkkkkk. NOOO.

[CallmeTheKnight]

It's up to them.

[bamesjond0069]

Generally no.
