I'm fed up with father's using their kid's as an excuse.

Absolutely be up front. Don't hide that you have kids.

If a girl/woman runs away because of a Father/Daughter relationship I say so be it. I could only hope she would run away sooner if she is thinking that. If she cant accept the relationship between a daddy and daughter be on your way....

You can always get a girlfriend/date. Those are just around the corner. You only get one daughter :)

..i can relate to this all too well,i have raised my son for the past seven years,i have not dated,nor been with a woman in the same amount of time,what some don't understand is that single dads are some of the best guys to have..why you say...well i'm glad you asked lol,because we have already shown that we can be responsible unlike alot of these sorry asss boys who just walk away leaving the woman and child to fend for themselves..

..sure they don't have to be in their lives,but they could help to support their kids,and be there every once in awhile,for the child in order to help them grow up,guidance goes a long way and the lack of it has alot to do with the problems we have with youths today...

..but you see most don't want to be tied down with kids you see they want the bad boy,who will leave them for the next thing that comes along and spreads their legs..so they wind up raising the kid on their own...after they get pregnant..because most bad boys don't want to be tied down with a woman and kid...sort of ironic ...

hi

what excuse?

see this was my point and plz dont take this the wrong way. I dont think someone can understand the love for a child unless they have one! no matter how hard they try unless they are special and they are out there just rare! Kids aren't an excuse just a reality and men that have them have less time and money and that takes acceptance from the other party! thats why i am sure to mention mine and make it clear i only have two weekends free a month and that will never change! oh and my child support is paid on time so we may have to pack a lunch sometimes too!

kids are okay


as long as they aren't girls

This is sad but it is the truth. I couldn't date anyone that has a child younger than mine. I have done my time...

I have no problem dating a man that has a child. Chances are I would love them as much as I do my own. I would be a little concerned if I found out he had like 5 different children with 3 different women, but 1 or 2 with the same woman...nothing wrong with that.
