Girls’ would you date a single father with 3 kids’ that are grown and pretty much on their own?

[Finchie40]

Now that I am single again, I am kind of set in my ways of what I am looking for in a girl , on the top of my priorities is honesty and loyalty and respect. Because I treat girls’ the same way I want to be treated in return , so if I make a connection with an attractive girl , I will be upfront and honest that I am a single father and my kids’ are older now and pretty much doing their own thing , and I am honest about not wanting to make new babies and starting all over again raising children , I don’t mind if she already has kids’ but it depends on her situation as well , on whether she is looking for a guy to help raise her children financially or not. I also don’t
Mind being with a girl that doesn’t want kids’or doesn’t has kids’ at all. Sadly some of the girls’ that showed interest in me , couldn’t handle my honesty and i thought to myself, should I have lied to her? Which I don’t want to lie, but it seems finding a girl these days’ is a lot harder than it was back then , I blame social media for a big part of that reason. I just want to find a beautiful girl that wants to love and spoil each other, that stays loyal and faithful to each other. but sadly I am having a hard time finding that these days. Should I not be completely honest with a girl in the beginning and not lay everything on the table and then break the news to her when it starts to become more serious? lol , I am so lost in the dating world today

There's no point lying on that important stuff to try get something real. It may be harder to find the right person but when you do it needs to be solid from the start about needs, wants and desires.

I'm also same boat as you-- I'm not looking for a father to my kids and I don't want more or to be supported. I want a partner for me, for joy, for a future. Nothing else.

And to answer your main question yes I'd have no problem dating a guy with mostly grown up kids. That matches me anyways.

I think for me, a man having kids already is not something I'd be looking for. I decided a long time ago that I don't want kids and even though your kids are more grown up and doing their own thing I dont think parents ever stop being parents.

Honestly, I dont want kids because I'm selfish. I want my relationship to be about me and my partner only. If there are kids involved, even adult ones, there's a chance that they will end up depending on us in the future as they are still your children at the end of the day.

Understandable, but to be honest with you , I would never expect a girl that I was dating or interested in in the step on and be a parent to my kids’ they are me and my exes responsibility period , I would never demand a girl to be a step parent to my kids’ , all I would expect of her is to just be polite and kind to them but other than that it’s not her responsibility at all. At my age now , I am set in my ways now as well by only wanting to date a girl that has no kids’ or doesn’t want Kids’ or has older kids’ as well, if she has little kids’ then she is better off finding someone else because I am set in my ways as well and do not want to start over raising little kids’ , now that my kids’ are older , I am looking to be selfish and spoil myself and spoil whichever girl I end up with , I want to travel and do things I never got to experience when I was raising my children, so the way I look at it? It’s my turn , I love my kids’ to death and I always will , but they are adults now so they don’t need me as much as they use to before. My ex decided to be selfish as well when our kids’ got older and decided she now longer wanted to be in a committed relationship when our kids’ got older , I thought her and I would enjoy the rest of our lives together , but it didn’t happen that way , So she is selfish as well

I think many women would

[sage2021]

I think that I would be very uncomfortable in that situation. I loved dating guys that had little ones though.

I think the bond between me and him is important firstly and if the kids are grown it’s way easier than if they are younger. I don’t see why not give it a shot.
