What does that have to do with not dating divorced people? If I dated divorced men I couldn't marry in church and wouldn't be a CCD teacher anymore. Besides, I am sick of people (like Elained)making comments that if someone is older and single there must be a reason. Guess what, it can go the other way and single people may say "if they are terrific why are they divorced?"

And let's not forget that either he cancels the date or they go with on the date. When I have dated men with kids this happens all the time.

Then they weren't in love to begin with and exactly why should I date someone like that who will fall out of love with me too? No thanks my standards are higher.

No, you haven't been around here that long. It's something I've heard a time or two in a work or social setting where one chick says to another that she won't be seeing her boyfriend, or that she'll have to "share" him, almost making it sound like these kids make this guy more "cool" and more virile because he has ejaculated, and created offspring, whereas a single-single man has not ... well, not the "created offspring" part.

I know someone who likes to date men with multiple baby mamas and I asked why they said "because he has experience in sex". Um, ok. Me I just see an irresponsible man.

Doesn't make him cool, it makes him a good father to spend time with his kids. What kind of lowlife would rather spend time with a possible girlfriend than his own children.

I have to laugh at you. You can not honestly think that people can be madly in love then years later grow apart
