What is your take on single mothers?

Hump -n- Dump
Unless you had a vasectamy and cannot have children, and if the kid is young enough, you will eventually become his father.

Don't get involved unless you're okay with the idea that they're looking for a husband and a father. The mother doesn't have time to waste on playboys. Don't be an opportunist in this situation.

some of you guys should at least try to get out on a date first prior to commenting on dating life.
There are a lot of single moms and dads now a days (I am not one). People have sex and a lot of it (except here it seems as any topic about it you have 90% thinking it's shens).
Most modern girls aren't looking for a b/f yet alone a dad for their baby. Most of the single mothers I have dated, have the father's in touch and covering the expenses they should...there are always psychos though...
The biggest problem you'll have with single parents is free-time. There is a lot of running home to pick up the kid, figuring out who will watch the kid (mom, dad, grandma, a sitter, etc), then times when things are planned but the person supposed to babysit is a no show.
Other than that, there is no difference in dating them. From my talks it's actually more guys that try to get serious with the chick thinking they can guilt them into a commitment because children need 'fathers'.

Dated one for a while. She wasn't looking for a hubby or a dad for her kids. She just wanted a good time after getting out of her sh1tty marriage. And boy did we have a good time. That sh1t was the golden booger!

The purpose of dating is to either find a lifelong mate or hump and dump partner. If I am to become a lifelong mate to this woman, I will become her childs father figure in some capacity...except it will be even harder since my authority will be undermined by the fact that I'm not his actual father. Why would I want to buy into a crappy situation like that when there's plenty of women without kids to date? I wouldn't rule out the possibility entirely I guess...but I don't think I'd ever pursue a situation like that, it just sounds like a recipe for failure.
