My wife was a single mom and she's more tradwife than any of you retards can imagine. Plus my stepson's pretty cool and his dad's connected enough I don't have to worry about taking care of that kid financially in the future.

I am not going to put up with some narcissistic twat just because the sex is good. I can find another woman who is sane that is good in bed.

I tried it once, wasn’t a fan. I can’t see myself dating a woman with a young kid again. In a few years, I could see myself maybe dating one with a teenager. A kid that can already take care of themselves and doesn’t really need another parent. Dating a mom to a toddler was a nightmare, though.

I do not disagree actually. If you hook up with a single mom, who is a amazing in the bed, that is an even larger red flag .

Men will put up with a lot for great sex, so how crazy is she.

I'm sure that judge has seen many of these cases if he/she has been on the bench for a while.

I bet the guy got super lucky even though he lost his material things like house and job. No jail time.

I imagine for every guy that is innocent and gets off there are innocent guys that are serving time for a crime they did not comment. Sadly many women could careless about falsely accusing a guy. When a woman is out to destroy a guy she will and will use her kid as a tool. Women have no conscience.

I’ve been happily married to a former single mom for over 15 years. Best choice I ever made. My relationship with my stepdaughter (now a grown productive tax-paying adult) is amazing and I would not trade it for anything.

That’s the stupidity of generalizations like yours. Some single moms are undoubtedly not worth dating. Some are. And there’s only one way to figure it out.

Don't even sleep with one. The next morning the only thing you'll get for breakfast is a Pop Tart and sippy cup.

Listen bro, I’m happy it worked out in your specific situation. But the chances are much greater than not that a single mom will drain you financially and otherwise ruin your life. Is it possible to survive a car crash if you aren’t wearing a seatbelt? Of course it is. But you better believe that the chances of surviving are much better if you wear a seatbelt.

If you are a man who actually has options, why even go down that road? Go for a woman who is young, hot, supportive, and doesn’t come with any unnecessary baggage. If you do then you have a much greater chance of happiness.

Doing so is a terrible decision. I don’t care how hot she is. She will hold you financially responsible for her children but you will have no authority in how they are raised. You will be reduced to an ATM machine.


Jesus. What a downer to read this morning. Because it hits close as frick to home. Im on marriage #2, and this has largely been my reality for the last 5+ years. Been together for 8

I fought the majority of her fights with the ex, which was no walk in park for sure. Major legal expenses keeping him out of the picture (he’s a druggie lunatic). The entire time she’s adamantly pointed out how as the only dad in his life I need to be very active with him, which I’ve been glad to do. Which I now see translated to buying him mountains of money in clothes, electronics, private school, and lessons, All while im basically never able to be critical of him in the slightest way or even toughen him or or tease him, the way I did with my older son. Like she wraps him in bubble wrap due to her guilt over her failed marriage I guess. Any fool can see she’s raising a lazy, sensitive, slob of a kid and now im at the point that im pretty checked out. fricking sucks. Add to the equation that im 52 and we had a surprise daughter 4 years ago

I’ll be the first to admit I’ve been had for the most part. I love my wife and it’s mutual, but also I put the chance of it lasting much longer at about 20%. I readily admit I met a woman 20yrs younger than me who is a IRL 8.5 and fell for the trap. It is what it is. Im currently laying the groundwork to make sure I get joint custody when shite inevitably goes down

Good luck, man. I hope you live in a state where 50/50 custody is normative.

I married a single mother with 2 little girls. And you're some what correct in saying they are looking for financial security but you're wrong on how to raise them.

Any weak, limp wrist man is going let his significant other run over him whether they're his kids or not. I raise those girls like they were mine and today they are successful in life and married with kids of their own. I have three granddaughters that call me pawpaw.

We have 5 kids total and I couldn't be more proud of how they turned out.

It seems like good times have made a lot of soft men in this world. Men, be the leader and head of your family. Teach your kids with discipline, honesty and God.

Lol. Single mom’s will definitely have the expectation that you’re not going to discipline their kids. It will lead to fights. Ultimately, if you’re not married, you can walk away. But if they trap you into marriage or having a kid of your own, the family law system gives them all the leverage. Have fun seeing your biological kids only on weekends. My point is that it’s best not to get involved with a single mom right from the get go. It should be a dealbreaker for all men. If you have the option to date young women who have never had children, why lower yourself to dating a single mom? It sounds like you didn’t have a lot of options so you had to make this arrangement work the best you could. Sad.

Im in south Georgia so not sure. Im just now at a point where im about to seek legal guidance for how to proceed under the radar. It’s been grueling getting to this point alone. Like I said, I have a 4yr old little girl who I worship. I’d just assume be put in the ground before I became a marginalized 4-6 day a month dad who watches his child grow up through FaceTime. And I would bet every red cent I have that she would try and leave the area within the first year. She did it to her ex. With barely any notice she moved to Atlanta with me after we dated about a year+. The guy wakes up one day and has to drive to fricking Macon twice a month to see his son. I’ll spend everything I have making sure that doesn’t happen to me
