Alot of single girls that i know, have told me that they hesitate to date guys w kids, because their kinda selfish and dont like sharing the guys w his kids. They get upset that on the weekends that the guys have their kids, they cant go out or do anything w them, do you single ladies, hesitate to date guys w kids?
It never bothered me, even when I was younger. Being a Dad is hardly a character flaw. I think it's selfish to not date someone just because they have kids.

You say that like it's a bad thing. We can't be selfless all of the time.
Why would I? I have no interest in kids, any of them.

Wow, you're judging people because they want to live the life that they want?
It's not selfish at all to take care of yourself first.
For me, kids are definitely a deal breaker. I don't want my own; I certainly don't want anyone else's.
Not feeling compelled to have children myself, I never cared if the man had children and was completely understanding of the time he needed to invest in them.

Whoaaaa
Some people have no interest in kids, or in parents. It's simply a preference, just as if, for instance, they didn't want to date atheists or extremely religious-types. There is a facet or fact about that person's life that is a turn-off to you and you shouldn't be forced to indulge it for fear of being called selfish.

Chielgirl.... yet again I completely agree with you.
Although I am married now, I never wanted kids and never dated anyone who had them. It was a deal breaker for me and one of the first questions I asked so as not to get involved first. I don't want my own nor the drama of other peoples...or the baggage that quite often comes with them.

exactly, everyone has criteria and children is just another one.
I absolutely REFUSE to date men with children.... Call it selfish or whatever, but I do not have kids and I expect the same of you.
I don't bring baggage and neither should you and let's admit it, dating someone with kids, there is usually baggage, unless the other parent has died.
And picture me answering to another adult about their kids.... especially if they're under MY roof.... the first time the brat screams out "You ain't my mama!" I might be liable to kirk out on they a$4 and kick that in the throat.... lol
nah, not gone be able to do it....
LMAO I feel you there. Let some brat act up in MY house, and then I get told by the adults(and kid too)that im not their parent, so I shouldnt be disciplining them. Yah..okay.
I'm a woman, and I dont have kids. I PREFER a man with no kids, but I realize that men who are in their 30's and up will probably have them. However, im certainly gonna look hard at the situation before I jump in.
