I met a girl online. She is 29 yrs old with a 7 year old daughter.

We were planning to meet for our FIRST date and while we were talking on the phone she asked two things that caught be a bit off guard:

1. She asked me if I was financially stable enough to support a wife who could stay home with young children. She said she hopes to have one or two more kids with the right guy and prefers to stay at home in the first few years when the kids are young.

2. She asked me to pay for her daughter's child care (or a baby sitter) while we went on our FIRST DATE. She is in nursing school and her cash flow is not good right now. The cost for the child care is not much ($30 or $40 bucks for 3 hours). But as a rule, I don't pay for other kids child care, esp. people I don't know.

Mind you, we have NOT even met in person yet. And we've only chatted a few times on the phone. Am I overreacting to delete this girl's number now and move on to the next person?

Nah. Don't date a woman who wants your money before you even meet her.

Dude, delete that woman's number NOW. The request indicates a lot of BS is going to happen down the line. Don't walk, RUN away from this woman.

Did she also ask if you have a college degree?

She's already counting the Child Support monies even though you haven't met her yet.

Want to be her slave, go on ahead.

Otherwise head for the hills!
