I have no children but hundreds of kids surround me at summer events. I educate them, joke with them, & entertain a lot of them. There is nothing wrong with me but just never met anyone worthy of having a family with. I was married once but never wanted to make that mistake again when I was cheated on. So I've been the responsible type & believed that children should have everything & none to want including happy parents in love. At times in the past I knew I couldn't afford them as a freelance artist & photographer.

Of course when I moved out here to Salem Oregon from Los Angeles, CA & bought a home 8 years ago & fixed it up. At the time the realtor also neglected to tell me that the state's capitol where I'm at, was a prison town until recently when they moved 2 of them to other towns. All I kept meeting were women cheating on their husbands that were criminals in some local prison.

So ... I figured I'd try out this online dating stuff. Since I've been on these silly sites while my home has been on the market for the last 2 years ... I have learned what a catfish, blob-fish, & monster fish was real quickly. I was beginning to believe that these sites were exactly what I thought they were all about from the start! Until a few friends of mine claimed they found the loves of their lives on these dating sites.

Well ... Here I am still. For me morally I feel that if I'm ever going to raise a child I'd like to do it married with the right gal. However, I'm currently realizing that society has stopped doing that in the last decade.


Am I the only one that feels this way?

Mate, I may be having unprotected sex with women that I'm not married to but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't be a good father.

some of this really does not make sense. I am sure there are other women not associated with prison in your town or nearby communities. You need to make an effort to find them. I guess my question is what is it you do or where are you going that those are the only women you meet?
