EPTIt's true, single moms don't have time for bullshit, that's why I said they make great fuck buddies, and most of the time they won't mind either, all you have to be is very bluntly open and upfront about what you want. With other girls it'll lead to better relationships, and more success if you just put your raw self out there, but with single moms you pretty much have a moral obligation to do that.

We are extremely close to shutting down this thread for the same reasons the PUA thread was shut down. While some of the time this thread contains actual discussion with people asking help and people giving nice advice, it often gets derailed by rubbish that should not be here. The moderation team will be trying to steer this thread in a different direction from now on. Posts of the following nature are banned: 1) ANYTHING regarding PUA. If your post contains the words 'alpha' or 'beta' or anything of that sort please don't hit post. 2) Stupid brags. You can tell us about your nice success stories with someone, but posts such as 'lol 50 Tinder matches' are a no-no. 3) Any misogynistic bullshit, including discussion about rape culture. 4) One night stands and random sex. These are basically brags that invariably devolve into gender role discussions and misogynistic comments. Last chance, guys. This thread is for dating advice and sharing dating stories. While gender roles, sociocultural norms, and our biological imperative to reproduce are all tangentially related, these subjects are not the main purpose of the thread. Please AVOID these discussions. If you want to discuss them at length, go to PMs or start a blog. If you disagree with someone's ideologies, state that you disagree with them and why they won't work from a dating standpoint and move on. We will not tolerate any lengthy derailments that aren't directly about dating. | ||

Single moms have trouble dating just because so many guys press the abort button as soon as children are involved. 26 is young to be raising someone else's child. Come back when you're 32 and you'll still find 24 single moms that want to date you. Use this time to find a single girl that you love and want to have a family of your own with Why so judgmental, both of you? You don't want family for at least 5 years into the future. You are single. You go out on one date with a single mom Who says anything about replacing the father even ever being in a committed relationship? | ||

Assuming she wants a relationship that will last he will become a father figure to the kid whether he wants to or not. Sure a fuckbuddy who happens to be a single mom isn't all that bad though, not that I would want it for myself. | ||

I mean going on dates with someone doesn't mean at all you will end up in a committed relationship, or that that's what they want either Dating a single mom for a while is a great experience. | ||

Like right now you could be dating multiple women and having great fun and sex, with single moms included, while keeping an open mind and heart so you don't miss the very compatible ones slip away. | ||

I don't have any experience with being intimate with single moms, but I feel that what you're saying is counterintuitive to their priorities (assuming their priority is raising their children). I feel like a single mom would have less time to fuck around and would only waste time on a guy if it isn't taking time away from their kid. Furthermore, the idea that a guy might be good enough to stick around (or at least be temporarily around their kids) could be very appealing, and so they might want to streamline the potential mates in favor of possible fatherly figures, rather than wasting time with flaky, superficial guys. Because they're thinking of their children too. On October 15 2015 23:48 bloodwhore~ wrote: I just got that impression from the way he wrote. I assume single moms would want to strive for financial security, a partner etc as well. Have you dated one or? That was my reaction too. They don't have time for bullshit and games anymore, because they have children to focus on and additional mouths to feed. | ||

Really the best way to approach dating is to not assume at all, focus on the present moment, state what you want, be genuine and get to know people without pre-judging with an open mind. Well I don't know if she recently got separated, I don't remember him saying that. If I found out I dated a single mom I'd immediately ask her where she wanted to go with us dating. Would be awful to lead someone on, especially if it was a single mother in my opinion. | ||

Don't you think we do? I would personally not want to date a girl who I knew was a single mom unless I knew she only wanted to fuck, I really don't think that makes you a white knight, it makes you a decent human being. I highly doubt single moms want that her new lover have to care like "real father". Not if he is just her fuck buddy obviously, however nobody has claimed that either. | ||

You just never know what happens, especially when you are single, in my eyes all girls I date I'm in an open relationship with at first until get to know them and there's no obligation to commit. That doesn't mean you will stay with them forever, that you have to be their father/therapist, or that you won't have sex with other women. And if you decide to commit to one of them, child or not - great. If you want to have many open relationships, also good. As long as you are honest with yourself and towards other people there's no reason to stop yourself from having great experiences just because your assumptions and projecting. Put yourself and what you genuinely want out there, and let them decide if they want it or not. EDIT: Actually it's basically what you said, no disagreement there. If your personal preference is a strict fuck buddy (not rly sure what that is, there's always some sort of a relationship involved - I guess that's if there's low attraction and you just mechanically fuck anyways?) you just express that when things start escalating on a date, and she will either take it or not. | ||

When someone makes the unjustified, sweeping generalization that all single moms love to superficially screw around because they're single moms, I think it's completely appropriate if someone disagrees for reasons. Dismissing a difference of opinion with "lol white knight" is a poor rebuttal. | ||

Altough I must say that I agree with DPB that not because Lemon had an experience with a single mom who just wanted to fuck that means every single mom is looking for that, or would even accept or make a good fuck buddy. | ||

Waaaaait a minute there buddy I said that in relation to the single mom that asked our TLer to come to her place instead of a date outside. By no means do I want to imply that's all single moms are looking for. | ||
