The main reason I won’t even go out on a date with a woman with kids is all the damn drama they have.

Having been out with several over the years, every one of them had more drama than a daytime soap opera.

The hardest part about dating a single mom is building a relationship with the kid and then breaking up with her. The fact of the matter is mom will never respect you.

The way the article is written has a tone that shows the entitled bitchiness of single moms.

"We don't need you..."

"We already have a father..."

"You will..."

It's the same tone a dating profile is written in with the accusatory "this is my life and if you find like it move along.  If you do then great you're a beta and you can date me."  That whole angry at everyone mentality.

1. You will not be our top priority, getting your money is.
2. Our time is precious, so im going to use you till i find who i do want.
3. We're not looking for a replacement parent for our kid, just a babysitter so i can continue to fuck around.
4. Be a grownup. We don't have time time for games.  Your time is mine now and you will do what i say when i say or else.
5. My kid comes first. Always..till i have your money and benefits so i can pity my way into taking half your shit in a divorce.

It takes a strong person to date a single mom. You have to be secure enough in yourself that you don’t need your hand held or to be coddled, because who has time for that? It may take a lot to date a single mom — we’re busy, and our attention is divided. But we’re pretty amazing. We’re strong, resilient, and we roll with the punches. We’re not afraid of commitment if it’s with the right person. We love fiercely.

I was always told that beggars can't be choosers.

In the way of the world, single moms bring zero to the table but somehow they're convinced that they're more desirable.

I dated a few moms.  One women I dated for a while and fell in love with her child.  After two years I liked the mom but I was so attached to the child I tried to make it work even though it wasn’t.  Walking away from a kids that you feel like is your own is hard.

you're goddamn right. Either she drove him off, or she chooses poorly.  There is nothing glamorous or inspiring about reveling in "I'm a single mom!!"  Fix that shit and give your kids a good man as dad or stepdad.

Tried it once - inadvertently. Never again.

Few years back I was working 6pm-6am shifts pretty much exclusively and was finding out hard to meet people, so I made an eHarmony account. I kind of figured that the $30/month cost would help keep some of the riff raff out (wrong), and I made a pretty specific note in my profile that I wasn't looking for mothers or married women. Doesn't seem like a strange preference to me but I caught a fair number of nasty messages from such types.

Anyway, fast forward a few weeks and I've been chatting up some pretty good looking ballerina type and we end up going on a few dates. Around the third or fourth I figure it's time to seal the deal; she leads me to the door of her apartment, pauses, and says "I know you said you weren't interested in single mothers, but I just wanted to let you know my five year old is inside asleep so we have to be quiet" Sort of dumbfounded I asked why she'd lie to me especially when she knew that was one of my conditions, and her response was something along the lines of "I didn't think you'd find out and it's not fair that everyone is so prejudiced against single mothers"

Needless to say I extricated myself pretty quickly and when I didn't hear from her for a few days it seemed like she'd gotten the message. Lo and behold, a week or two later she starts talking to me on Gchat and this time doesn't even bother with conversation or pretext, and goes straight for "can you help me out? I'm having trouble making ends meet" etc etc. Told her I wasn't an ATM. Took her all of about two seconds to mention "how good at sex she was" and if only I could help her out a little bit maybe I'd get to find out. I rolled my eyes hard enough to detach my retinas, but for the hell of it I dickered with her on price and had her describe in graphic details what her plans were before blocking her. I don't know what the KBB on a well-maintained but high-mileage mid-80s model with at least one recorded wreck was, but I felt like she wanted too much

TLDR dated a single mother who turned out to be a literal prostitute
