Yes that is right ,but what if you where deeply in love.The option of I prefer to is out the window.As for myself I recently met this amazing lady and I would marry her if she had kids or not.Ok she does not but I would if she did.If I were in a dating pool I think it would very much depend on the guy, but my first thought here is No, I wouldn't.
It would depend on the age of the children and the age of the man. It would depend on his relationship with his ex. But I would prefer not to.
Hello i would marry her any way kids are not a problem because you have to look at the bigger picture . Kids or no kids I would go out with them.Ahoy kids are not an issue;- so how do you get a date?
Cheers and pass the Rum
Even old pirates can get dates. Just ask the lady..hopefly thing workout.Ahoy;- Cheers saab95tony, well done. So hear my issue;- i am an old pirate, so how do you get a date?
I have no issue with kids, no issue with marriage, but, how do you get a date?
Thank you very much Happy Pirate.Cheers and same to you.Ahoy Lad;- You make an old Pirate heart smile;- good on you lad, "reach for the sky and grab your prize."
Saab95Tony, you are a good positive lad, I wish you the best in all your endeavors and be happy in all you do.
Thank-you for joining the forum and be happy in life.
You would do it because you meet someone you loved.That us not silly people meet a fall in love and things happen.I am not a young man 45+ and if I meet the right lady I would after a period of time ask her to marry me .It will all be worth it.At my age unless I pick up some gorgeous young thing I'd be mote worried why they never had kids before now.
It would also be a bit hypocritical not going with someone with kids when I have two of my own.
If she wanted kids of our own tho that would be a different story ,I don't want any more kids of my own and have taken care of that.
I wouldn't really want to be with someone with young kids either as I've been there done that , the next young kids in my life I want to be grand kids at least that way I can give them back.
I think having young kids or babies at an old age is wrong for the kids because they cant enjoy you as a parent doing a lot of activities with them as much as a younger parent could
Its all good anyway as I'm never getting married , Why would I do a silly thing like that at my age now![]()
this is how and why a lot of domestic arguments start . to date partner with children you do need to watch your back and watch for the signs of tension with your partner ,I've dated a few ladies over the years that have had kids and I've learned one thing. It is not the lady, it is not even the kids, it is ALWAYS the ex. They have access rights and all they want to do is mess things up it the ex missus is happy and they love to use the kids to do it. Would I date a woman with kids? Only if the ex is dead or well away from the scene. That's the truth.
Better question is, will you be with someone who won't accept and love your kids?
I have met my friend who came back from England just recently. He is 45, a bit chubby, spend there a few years and made good money, and he is looking for wife now BUT he said there is no way he would consider a woman with child or children.
But you have somewhere to tuck them when riding a boys bike RochelleThe world according to Rochelle..........

I thick your right males are lot harder because they are harder tI've dated a few guys that have had children and if I were to ever marry, I would prefer my future partner not to have children from a previous relationship.
i am very happy for you that you and your patner are living life to the fullest and the children are number one.I had 1 child to my first partner at the tender age of 18
needless to say we grew apart
my current partner was a bit hesitant in the begining but soon realised that i was a package deal
to have me he had to accept my son.
Not to be his DAD but a mentor in his life
he and his family are very religious so it was hard for him to know that i had a child with another man.....
But now he wouldnt change a thing
he has taking onboard his role and loves my son like he was his own
we now have 3 more kids
full house LOL
i would hope that any one dealing with this situation takes the time to get to know the child before making a really bad decission
kids are our future
Thanx love they are and will always be number 1I thick your right males are lot harder because they are harder t
i am very happy for you that you and your patner are living life to the fullest and the children are number one.
