Not if the babies aren't with me but he expects me to cater to them, yuck. I like keeping my money for me and not his spawn. If truth be told I do think divorced dads are failures because they failed at marriage. Why would anyone who never failed at marriage want to date someone who intentionally hurt other people (and by this I mean the kids). I get it in situations of abuse or cheating but otherwise? Nope then it's called selfishness and I don't date losers who break marriage vows and affect their children's lives.

Yes it is nasty but it is the truth. The reality is when a couple has kids they need to work things out and stay together. You know "til death part". Raising kids after a divorce is evil in most cases. I understand divorce in abuse or cheating but excuses like "we grew apart" or "we didn't love each other" are just excuses and pure selfishness. Then these parents troll dating sites looking for new partners who will contribute either financially or child rearing thinking there is nothing wrong with it. Guess what? if more people like me were outspoken I am willing to bet more of these parents would stay together.

Here's a message I got today from Plenty of Fish by a loser poster there. "All you will find are single dads because no childless man will date you". That's funny because Taco Man is single and childless and I know many more childless men, and the men I met on dating sites were all childless.

Yes if my choices are between a single dad and being alone I pick being alone, I feel that strongly about this.

I'm not single anymore, but I have to admit that when I was single, I avoided men with kids. I didn't want to be a stepmother. I don't think single parents are losers and never did. I think it's a difficult situation that I don't want any part in.

I refuse to date a man with children. I do not want to be a stepmother. I don't think single parents are losers either, but that's a drama I want no part in.

Better him than me. Way better.
