Have you ever dated anyone with a child?
Was there any problems dating someone with a child?
Yes, I've dated women with children in the past. The older one becomes the more likely they are going to meet and date others in their age group who have children from a previous relationship/marriage.
As for problems there weren't any "major" problems. One relationship involved a woman whose ex-husband would get into arguements when he came by to pick up the kids. Another woman allowed her kids to yell at her and disrespect her in numerous ways. The problem was not so much with the kids as it was with how the parents were raising their children.
The vast majority of women I dated that had children was fairly "drama-free".
Yes, I have dated men with children. Since I am in my 30s, it is hard to find men that do not have children. It is OK with me since I do not want to have my own kids. I figure a man that already has kids will not expect me to provide him with any more children.
I have not had any really terrible problems with dating a man with kids. I did date someone with 4 children once and that was tough. He was pretty much the primary parent in their lives. Their mother was not around nearly as much as she should have been. Honestly, it did ruin the relationship since he never had time to be with me, but it was completely understandable why that was the case. He was a good father and there is nothing wrong with that. Other than that experience, there have been no real issues.

I have a question. Are their parents who watch what their children are doing while outside? Does anyone at least check-up on them every so often? I am a busy mom, I work full time and when I get home I am exhausted. The last thing I want to do is run outside evry few minutes checking on my son, but...

Do you flirt only with strangers and people you have never dated?It seems as though most people rarely flirt or use sexual innuendo with their spouses or long-term significant other. The same types of comments which were once welcomed or seemed humorous are often later seen as immature, silly, or...
