Past actions of men also determine the likelihood of their future behavior. So do you think all single and childless women should shun all divorced men or single fathers simply because their marriage failed? Or do you think it's wiser for them to consider WHY the marriage failed and whether or not they tried to make it work? The only men who should be shunned automatically are men who are serial cheaters, abusive to others, sex offenders and the like.
1- RARELY a man with children is looking for a woman to take care of HIS children. Men (the great ones) tend to be independent creatures.
2- This is a DJ forum. If this was a Female Forum, then I would provide advice. And the advice would be slightly different...because men are different than women. But I would provide my advice nevertheless...starting to AVOID DATING "INTERNET" men as my #1 advice to women.
The same can be said of men. I think ANYONE, male or female, who sleeps around is nasty. Why on earth would I or anyone else want someone that anyone else can have? I won't date man wh*res either. I think they're really gross...the same way you seem to view slvtty women.
That's fine. Still, my advice TO MEN remains the same. I'm not giving advice to women in here. My advice is given to MEN. So, I don't know why you are so defensive.
Why on earth are you dividing women into "pools"? There are only two "pools" of women...the ones you know and the ones you don't know.
Time (and in the man's case) MONEY is of essense. So, we have to go by statistics and likelihoods.
Your "dating pool" should simply be the women you've met who you are attracted to. When you like one you get to know them better to see if you like them as a person as well. If you "search" in that fashion then you are more likely to find someone you actually really like. So what if a woman is divorced or has a kid...if you like her and are attracted to her there is no reason not to get to know her a bit better to find out if she's worth your time. If you like someone you like them and what "group" they fall into shouldn't matter so much as who they are as a person. I don't fit any of the typical single mother stereotypes.
I would DATE and SLEEP with woman with children. Make no mistake about that. But I would NEVER consider her for a serious long term relationship.
I know lots of other single mothers who don't either. I only know a couple who do fit the typical stereotypes and I don't blame guys for steering clear of those types of women because they are trash. But there are just as many unmarried single women without kids who are just as trashy, if not moreso.
True. I'm not advertising to date trash. Just to pick the best of the litter (sorry for the term).
lol...that's not true at all. Older women are actually far easier to get along with than younger women because they are more mature and appreciative and less demanding. The only ones who are bitter towards men are radical feminists or ones that REALLY got hurt badly and choose to stay a victim.
Listen, I have dated younger and older. It is true.
They are experts in the bait and switch. And yes...you (older woman) are more demanding. And you should be more demanding. After all, the clock is ticking...add that past BAD experiences. So, please, do NOT b.s. us into believing otherwise.
According to that thinking almost everyone on the planet is "damaged goods". Everyone gets cheated on at some point in life. Almost everyone has been involved with someone who has abused them either physically, mentally or emotionally, even if only passive aggressively. You can't judge a person by what they've been through...you have to judge them based on how they deal with those experiences and whether or not they learn from them and don't keep repeating the same mistakes.
Let's assume that what you say is true. Then, given the option...why should we pick a woman that has multiple children, is over 35 years old, is divorced, has some emotional bagage (e.g. cheating husband or abusive husband)...over a woman that has no children, is in her PRIME (28 years old), never being divorced? EVEN if she has emotional baggage...who should we pick?
I want a woman that have HIGH standards. How do I know about her standards? By the type of men she has phuked (or even dated) in her past.
This one is kinda comical to me. Know why? My ex husband of 10 years and I have 3 children. He is a terrible father and has gone to great lengths to avoid supporting his kids. He's also a miserable b@stard to our children and they all want nothing to do with him. They are 20, 18 and almost 16. I never tried to find a surrogate father for them. Instead, I took on the role of father as well as mother. I taught my kids sports, fishing, we camp, hike, etc. I even taught my sons how NOT to let themselves be adversely affected by feminism.
Who is the father of your fourth child? And if he was so "terrible"...why did you choose to have THREE kids with him? That's beside the point. Feel happy that there are plenty of men there willing to meet women in your situation. But do not expect a 25-45 year old DJ to do that. That's cool with DJs in their 50s, as we cannot expect them to be involved in a LONG TERM relationship with half their age (although, some do).
I also have a beautiful 6 year old with a man I wasn't married to. He is a wonderful father, is always willing to help in any way he can and he loves our daughter very much. Why would I want to try to find some other guy to replace her Daddy? If I end up with someone I want him to treat her well and for her to treat him well...but anyone I get involved in will be for ME, not for my kids.
Here is the answer. So, you also have a child out of wedlock. Anyway, I personally don't care. I do however know that you having such a young child living with you is going to eventually become a responsibility of the man that ends up marrying you. After all...she will ALSO be living with him. There is no way around that.
lol...A woman's sexual desire doesn't work quite like men's do. It's all in the mind for women, not physical. We don't need an erection to have sex. Older men are more likely to have performance issues, but older women are fine. Menopause doesn't typically happen until the 50's.
I'm highly educated...so, preach that to the ignorant. Some women start menopausing as early as her 30s. Some, certainly in their 40s.
Women is both: physical (losing eggs) and mental. Which makes the situation WORST!
Men? How old do you think was Clint Eastwood when he had his children? Fact is...men might lose testosterene count...but there is something called VIAGRA.
A woman's prime is in her 20s...that is combining everything (pregnancy too). Men prime (social/career/health/sex COMBINED) is in his mid 30s to his mid 40s.
No need to debate your myth.
Depends on why she is divorced. She may have done nothing wrong and it could have been the husband who was a screw up. The husband may have gotten the divorce, who knows.
I got the divorce in my case. Nothing wrong with her. But I know she will have some issues (trust) in the future.
All head cases should be disqualified. Automatically someone just because they are a parent is foolish. If they don't have enough time or can never get a sitter or are controlled by their ex, then yes, disqualify them...but don't assume all single moms are the same because they aren't.
A DJ does not raise another man's child. Period. He make sure he raises his own first.
Well, most DJs won't (I understand a widow woman). At least, that's my opinion.
Okay...I thought we were talking about dating, not making a serious commitment. Why on earth do men think that dating a single mother makes him responsible for taking care of the woman's kids? This isn't something the single mom's expect or even want at all. It's something men assume will be expected of them. I don't even let any guy I date meet my kids unless I am sure the relationship is likely to lead to something long term. Only 3 men have known my kids that I got involved with since I got divorced 12 years ago. It really annoys me to no end when men assume that I only want a father for my kids. Screw that...if I date it's all about companionship for ME!
So...you are "dating" to get laid? Heck, I date a suitable single mom if it was solely for sex and having a great time.
But NOT for a SERIOUS long term relationship.
Fact is...a GREAT mother will always put ahead their MINOR children when it comes to looking for a suitable partner. I can't and won't blame a woman for doing that. And there are plenty of "nice men" out there willing to become surrugogate fathers in exchange of sex with the child's mother. Some great nice guys willing to even raise those kids and be a great example for those kids.
Women like you should be looking for those men. Instead of looking like men like me or any other DJ.
Once your children are ADULTS...then you proceed and do whatever you want. After all...you claim that menopause does not hit a woman until her 50s. I know...you know...and well informed people here now that is FAR from the true.
