Single parent co-worker

[Rance]

She might be a great friend. Sounds like she's got her act together and we can never have too many decent friends. Just go with the flow and see what happens.

So you think this woman should lower her standards... be looking to date someone who either doesn't make much money, or is very unattractive.. because of how much money she makes (or doesn't) and the fact that she is raising 2 kids? I don't think that it's safe to assume that she is looking for a "sugar daddy" without knowing more about the woman herself, and I certainly wouldn't put all single mothers into a category of "looking for sugar daddies" because they would like to find a decent man to date/start a relationship with... If you go with that line of thinking... aren't all women looking for a "sugar daddy" (ie- someone intelligent, responsible, successful, etc)?

What exactly are you asking? Are you attracted to her? Are you asking if that's the way things are these days because she's black? What if she does "have a thing" for white guys? I'm not understanding the relevence of anything you're asking. As for the genius who thinks the girl is looking for a sugar daddy: I'm a single mother of three who dropped out of college. I'm self-employed making a very good living, I soooo don't need a sugar daddy. Do you honestly believe that every woman who has kids only does it because she needs someone to take care of her? Kindly step into the new millenium.
