The Advice That Men Are Being Given When it Comes to Dating Single Moms

I found an article over at the male’s online version of Cosmo; AskMen.com about dating single mothers. It’s always nice to get a man’s perspective on things and I was definitely interested in seeing what advice a man would give another man on dating us Divas with kid(s). I was impressed with most of it, especially the parts that were singing the praises of us wonderful single mothers. LOL

There was a subheading ‘Beware the Yummy Mummy’ which had me ready to rant, but after reading through it; turns out that the writer was warning men to not even bother playing games with a single mother since she’s pretty much been there and done that and likely doesn’t have the time or the energy to play games. I believe the line was that we are ‘hip to the games men play’. Well put.

He also points out that the child may hate the new man and why which I think was worth the mention since most men don’t think that deeply when it comes to asking us out. It would be nice to have men see us as women sometimes more so than moms, but in the end, a mom is what we are and there is no denying that our children are a part of the deal that cannot be negotiated in any way, shape or form.

The article points out the great things about dating a single mom as well as the “steep downside” which he still somehow spins to sound like a plus! The article is pretty thorough and totally pro-single moms which is a nice change considering some of the crap that has been written referring to single moms looking for love as being ‘desperate’ or looking for another ‘baby daddy’!
