I have a friend who was a single dad, his boy was about six. When he would date, he would make sure that the women knew up front he had a son. The boy would also meet the women, and as time passed and when the time was right, my friend asked his son's permission to propose to his girlfriend. The boy really liked the woman and now they have been a happy family for a couple years.

I think it's possible for kids to meet and get a sense of people without getting attached. Plus, if the child absolutely does NOT get along with the other person, there's no point in going on. Because when it comes down to it, the child is more important.
