My long time significant other and father of my second child decided he is not happy in our relationship and broke up with my this week. I am devastated and hurting for both my children and myself. However I know I can't make someone else happy and they have to find happiness within themselves. We talked marriage last week and buying a house. This week he is ready to move on without me.
I know I need to just focus on my kids and myself for the foreseeable future, but one day I want to find a husband and man that wants to join our family. I have young kids.
Is there hope of finding a good man that wants to love my kids and I? I have never sucessfully dated single dads, so I would be looking for a man that does not have kids and does not wish to have any, but a man that is happy to love and care for my kids.
Is this possible? Are their good men like this out there?
You really should focus more a bit on single dads.... they have a much better understanding of your situation, way way more so than a single guy. Most single guys are clueless as to the demands and energy it takes to raise children.

So you want nothing to do with men who have kids, BUT you yourself want a man to fully embrace you and your kids? Lol, talk about hypocrisy. I would say most men who have a lot of options, especially if they are under the age of 40, probably wouldn't date a a single mom as a first choice. But I wouldn't say it's impossible, but you'll just have a smaller pool of men to choose from. Me myself, I want to have my own kids one day and not be raising somebody else's, plus I don't want to deal with baby daddy drama, so I would probably never date a single mom.

She says she's never had luck dating single dads. But I agree she shouldn't make it a rule that she would never date a single dad. But it isn't the way you're describing it. It sounds like it's something she's already tried that hasn't worked out so far.
I am not a single dad, but I would date a single mom, because I myself never want to procreate, but the idea of raising a kid who's already born is interesting.

That's what I never understood about single moms, why the hell don't they just date single dads? Instead of worrying about chasing men who don't want to date single moms.
