Where I live there are a lot of single mothers. I mean a LOT. There are very, very few single women where I live that don't have kids.
Usually they're invisible to me as far as dating goes. Total turnoff. The idea of it has always seemed pointless and unappealing.
But recently I've been trying to see if there's any way that I could perhaps change my mind. I'm open minded. Maybe it's not such a bad idea, who knows. Maybe I've been too picky or maybe I just haven't really considered it. I know a couple of guys who are seeing single moms and I don't think I've really heard any complaints from them so for all I know it might be ok. Are there any positives / benefits to dating a single mom?
I don't understand. Is it that you don't like someone else's kids; you just want your own? Or you don't care for the drama that comes with dealing with your gf's ex and all the visitation, child support, and the like? A lot of times, the kids are great, it's all the headache and infighting between exes. I've talked to a lot of single moms who don't want to be in a relationship with other people with kids. Now that's a head scratcher
There are no positives/benefits based on being a single parent. The positives/benefits are based on the individual person. Get to know the person and take it from there.

They tend to be responsible, more independent and not needy.
I have no problem dating a single mom, but there have been times when I ask myself "Will her kids like me?" I've known instances in which the kids "hated Mom's boyfriend" and showed it!
