Would you date a man with kids ?

Question

I personally refuse to date a man with kids , I tried twice and it just didn’t work , they both cheated with their baby mamas , so that’s a noooo for me , they’ll cheat whether they have kids or not however I don’t want to deal with kids that aren’t mine , PERIOD! I can’t pretend that I like kids when in reality I don’t . Lol. I don’t care how fine he is , how sweet he is , or how much money he has the answer is no. Over the years I’ve been screwed so many times by guys and I’ve always been the “good girl” ya know , I’m lied to and cheated on every time. I’ve dated white men black men , men with kids men without kids and they ALL lie and cheat . I’m so done . Lol rant over .

Answer

The guy I’m currently dating has kids. 2 teenagers. Haven’t met them yet. And honestly I enjoy our bubble without them lol. I’ve raised other people’s kids since I was younger and still do, to this day. I don’t mind kids. What I mind is disrespectful kids. A different guy I dated 21 years ago had a kid but she lived out of state so really he did not have kids, so this is my first time actually having to deal with them eventually. I used to say I will never date someone with kids when I was younger. Yes it has its drawbacks of baby mama drama and ex wife drama or the kids hating you that you are the reason their parents aren’t together etc.  but if you don’t have to go through that and can co parent successful, I wouldn’t mind it in all honesty. Having kids is hard. I’m 41. Kinda hard at my age to find someone that has never been married or had kids unless he’s a 40 year old virgin that lives in his mothers basement, doesn’t work and plays video games all day and ya don’t want that either. No one wants to be their mother and have to raise a man and clean up after him either. So I’m open to kids. My guy had a vasectomy so I love that I don’t have to worry about pregnancy scares which is great. He already had kids. A tiny part of me still wanted them at some point but it’s not a priority honestly.

Answer

Oh geez, you've had it rough from the sound of it. 
Not every man cheats and lies, but there are many who do. I've been lied to a lot, personally. 
I don't want kids, so I don't want to date someone who has or wants kids.

Answer

When I was dating, that was my one hard deal breaker! Absolutely would not even go on a date with someone who already had a kid!

Answer

Well considered I’m married with children I don’t need to worry about that. But if my husband and I ever split I don’t think I’d want to date anyone as I don’t want to deal with the chance of my child getting attached and them leaving, but if I were to date I wouldn’t object to a man with children as long as he treats those children right and doesn’t show obvious favoritism between his children and mine
