I swear this is the last thing I would be worried about. I would certainly not let myself get all excited though...before you've even had one date. Frankly the 2 or 3 guys that asked me out at the gym ALL turned out to be single dads. And they were ALL very fit. I only dated one though...and not for very long. Stop worrying about something that could never even be an issue.
I know you're being supportive, but it sounds like you're saying there's something wrong with a person who doesn't want to date someone with children, if that turns out to be the case? I have kids and I'm in a relationship with a woman who has children from her marriage, but if she hadn't wanted to date me because of my children I wouldn't have seen it as a moral failing.
I used to be that single person who didn't want to date a single dad (but he was a dad of five kids!). That is totally their choice and I am not judging them for that. It just makes it hard for me in the dating world because that is what I seem to attract right now - younger guys who have no kids and never married.
I usually try not to reciprocate anything as I know we're not in each other's target market. Just want to be prepared as I know this will come up again.

Well, at our ages, our kids would most likely be off in college, didn't your boy go to college semi-recently I remember you mentioning it.
I think in the 40 plus yr old set most people that do have kids the kids are most likely a bit older and have their own lives and are busy themselves. I think where as a man dating women with much much younger kids is where the issue might be a little more of an issue for some guys.
I met a marvelous man a couple years ago. Within the first 10 minutes of meeting each other, he told me he has a daughter, and I told him I have two kids too.

I'm 39, but most of the guys I attract are 35 and below, and so far, they've never been married with no kids. Like I said earlier, I just want to be prepared as I know this will come up again if this one doesn't work out.

Aren't you the same poster that was getting all sloshy over some dude that lived near you and you were semi stalking him???
Are you the same one that was obsessed with the guy just because of his looks, and here you are again, railing on about how hot this guy is to you????

No, those of the guys that you are attracted to. By your own admission, you are mostly attracted to guys with hot bodies that are extra good looking. More than likely, you aren't really attracted to guys your age or older and you pretty much ignore them so it seems like they aren't attracted to you.

That was a different guy (my neighbor) who also went to the same gym, but he wasn't interested in me once he knew I was a single mom. He didn't even know I was the same gal he saw from the gym. Anyway, I finally met him (along with my son) at the neighborhood potluck and we say hello to each other occasionally. I'm over him now. New guy now.

Nope, I'm actually more attracted to older men, and I prefer single dads. No single dad has ever approached me in person. I don't think I'll be going back to OLD either. Not anytime soon.
