Wait, you say your child is in therapy and crying because she has no father. You don't think she gets some of that from you?

Do you know any real life Brady bunch situations that have worked out? I can't think of one. Dating men with kids is like trying to recreate the Brady bunch. Especially when the man has custody of his kids. I mostly have mine all the time.
My college roommate's father died when she was 3 and her brother was 5. Her mother was remarried when they were 6 & 8. He also had two, older children that lived with the mother. She called him Dad and he was their dad and they had a normal, happy life. His kids didn't live with them and from what I understand her and her brother didn't have much contact. She never referred to them as step siblings, simply "my dad's other kids".

Another example of blending kids not in the picture... I tend to find the single dads that have custody of their kids.
I am tired of being alone and would like to be remarried. I don't feel like my family is complete. The missing piece is not kids or pets...

I don't expect anyone to find me at the house. That is my point. It is unlikely I will meet anyone any time soon.
Why is there always a technicality in what you say? You aren't looking, but you're looking online but you don't have an account so that doesn't qualify as looking? Who are you trying to fool - us or yourself?! Get your sh^t straight in your own mind at least

It is not looking or actively pursuing if you don't have a way of contacting them. Which without an account, I have no way of contacting them, so no, not looking.
If I find one in my travels, great. But, like this morning I was at a breakfast with bunny event. The men I would want to attract are there with their wives and kids. The one staring at me was the overweight guy, with huge cylinder holes in his ears, in the middle of a cloud of smoke, because he is sucking on one of those vapor things. Yuck.

So, if while you were "window-shopping" online you saw a great looking guy with a little kink, a 10 year old kid, with a good job and no criminal history, in your town even(!) you'd not set up an account? You'd give him a pass because you're not looking?

Yes. I am really done for awhile and I am going to be way pickier, going forward. Like your example would need to be kidless, for me to even think about creating a profile, which I consider to be a giant PITA.

No I don't think it has anything to do with me. She feels like part of her is incomplete because she has no idea who her father was, what he was like or anything of his family.
She does not know what it's like to have a father. She can't relate to her peers that have been raised in two parent houses, with their own parents. She has never lived in that situation. She only has a mom.
Contrary to opinion here. I really don't date much and the only men that my kids have known me to be involved with, are men already in their lives. They have never been around or exposed to strangers.
No thinking man would go into that situation, especially if there's more than one 'babydaddy'.
An opportunist, on the other hand, will be in and out and possibly add another different-DNA-having kid to the brood.
And in the meantime I hope none of these kids are witnessing the parade of 'boyfriends' passing through the house like it's a truck stop. Oh, they're going to learn wonderful lessons about how to be an adult there.
