I have 2 of my own and dating a woman with one. I guess it's different because I raise my kids and it isnt to hard to raise another. She's a good kid and needs a good male role model in her life. Her dad aint shite and doesn't give her the time of day. To each his own though. I can fully understand your resistance to raising someone else's kids.

I will never understand how any man/woman ends up in a relationship with someone who has a kid, unless you yourself already have a kid. If you have a kid it makes perfect sense. If you don't then WTH are you thinking? Do you know how many women there are out there that don't have kids that you could be just as good as a fit with? Plus you're already getting the huge red flag of them being through a divorce. So unless you're divorced yourself with a kid why settle?

30 and married with an infant. People say you need to be a man and take care of the kid. How about be a man and don't settle when you can do better. No reason to deal with all that baggage(unless you already have a kid also).

Move to a big city. A lot of marginal women study unattached for s long time in bigger cities. You can prolly find one no one else wants there!

Good luck

Just because someone marries a woman with children doesn't mean they're not a narcissist. For instance, my ex-wife has some douchebag now. We have two kids together, and I've already had to call child services on him. He doesn't give a damn about my kids, but my ex is way out of his league. She's pretty selfish too, so it's probably not going to end well. And my kids will unfortunately be along for the ride.

If I could afford the court fees and lawyer, I'd try.

Why do you assume that if a man marries or dates a woman who has a child they would be settling?

You are under zero obligation to date a person with a child if you choose not to, but that doesn't apply to everyone else.

Life happens to us all.

lol dude having gone through a divorce is not necessarily a red flag. The circumstances are really important.

Come on baw, you really gonna try and compare raising a couple kids that aren't yours to owning a dog?

It shows compassion.

I recently went to a Petsmart. The cashier was talking about how nice all her customers were. She said her last job was as a waitress and everyone was either rude or detached.

I told her to look around and see the type of people in the store. The customers were caring people who were compassionate and cared about things other than themselves.

The healthcare field is also populated with caring people. They take care of kids that are not their own....

When I was a single man I would never have dated a divorced woman or woman with a kid. Do you not think that women who have been through a divorce and especially women who already have kids bring extra baggage? There isn't a finite amount of women out there.

Pretty telling to me that most of the people that have married someone with a kid the real Dad has abandoned the family. This would raise even more alarms in my mind because why would the woman make such an awful choice to marry and reproduce with someone that would abandon their family?

Like I said, there are many fish in the sea so why deal with that?

Yeah, life isn't so cut and dry. My wife's ex-husband is a control freak who wanted her to stay locked up in the house 24/7. Dude is all kinds of fricked up in the head.

You're correct there are cases where a spouse cheats and other similar circumstances. However, there is still going to be major baggage that comes along with this woman.

You shouldnt. Single women now proudly parade their kids around like trophies when those women should be shamed. Their kids had to grow up in a broken family because the mother wanted to be a whore.

they're children, who need a father. after a few years, you'll like them better than their mother.
