There's a section on the profile for whether or not you have kids, so if you fill out that section, they already know. You don't have to go into details on your profile.

As for whether it turns guys off or not, I know there are a lot of guys who are willing to date a woman with kids, just like there are women who are willing to date a guy with kids. Good luck to you.

There are several answers to your question.

If you are just looking for a date, it probably won't matter.

If you are looking for a long term relationship, it will matter to some and not to others.

If you are looking for a husband, it will matter a lot. Since the ones who will run at the mention of a child are not the ones you would probably be interested in, you should tell everyone.

Did it ever occur to you that something else may be preventing you from receiving the attention that you want from men on this site?

I don't see the point of withholding that sort of information, people are going to find out anyway if you start really interacting/meeting. If you have kids, just say you have kids, anyone who minds isn't the sort of person you need to be dating anyway.

Some women aren't interested in dating men with kids, you just find the ones who are.

Why should she hide the fact that she has children? You're saying she should't be ashamed of her kids, but you're telling her not to admit she has them.....I don't see the point of misleading someone with that sort of information; good personality or not, you shouldn't lie about something like that.

I'm assuming that's the childs father in your pictures?

I'd change this up a little

"Her father is not in the picture at the moment. I am looking for a friend who will listen to me and likes kids."



I've dated women with children... Kids aren't the problem
The breakups are brutal for him if he gets attached to your kids
I'd have a hard time getting the relationship going to be honest... but only cause I've been there... twice!

Good luck flowerforyou

Yes, because it would eliminate the men who aren't looking for a relationship with single moms.Most of the women I have dated had kids no worries, you'll find someone nice.
