Im so tired and frustrated of being single. Im fairly young (29) have a college degree, good job, own place. Im a sweet, genuine, loyal person, have a variety of interests, excellent cook, love sports and beer and my sex drive is through the roof. Im almost always the one wanting sex in my relationships. I think my only "con" would be that I have three children from my previous relationship. But there are plenty of single fathers out there too. All my children have the same father and we have nothing between us, good or bad. I have no trouble getting initial dates, but I cannot seem to meet anyone that is genuinely interested in me and wants to pursue a relationship. Once they discover that Im not the girl that is gonna put out after two dates that's where it ends. Im not dating justany guy who asks me out, I take my time, get to know them and i will conversate with a guy for awhile before even going out on a date. So if a man is appearing to have the qualities I want and seems like he is genuinely interested in me, wtf is wrong here? I can only think that something must be wrong with me?

On your dating profiles, do you have that you're married like you do on the one here?

That's one theory..

You sound like a dateable lady to me
Some people are just weirdoes. It seems that a lot of men these days past the age of 25 haven't grown out of that "boy-man" phase that's supposed to be over with following college.

You have 3 children. This is a red flag. Even one child is a red flag. It means baggage. Your pool is very small. Plenty of single fathers but they pay child support and do not take care of the child/no custody.

Why aren't with you their father now?

^^^ This. It may not be fair, but you having 3 kids and being less than 30 is going to send guys running.

You sound perfectly dateable to me, except for the kids. If I wasn't terrified of children it wouldn't bother me as much, though.

Single moms are also nowhere as picky as a single girl with no kids.

I don't know about that, they're not only letting someone into their lives but the lives of their children. They might be even more picky, unless they are desperate for someone to help support them a 'father figure' for their children.

Single moms should be pickier esp if the children are young. These are a lot of men with nothing but the filthiest of intentions that love to prey on single mothers. I've seen a few single mothers lose a sense of what's important and date dirtballs.
