Hi, I've posted on other threads, but here is a quick rundown of my situation. My wife left me and I'm starting to get ready to move on. I've been hanging out with a group of single parents to let our kids mingle and play and I've really hit it off with another single mother... I was wondering is it okay for single parents to date other single parents or is it a disaster waiting to happen? please give me some advice.
I dont see why it would be a problem. maybe im naive. but it seems you'd have a lot in common. how old are the kids? ive only read that its really hard to mesh with the kids.

It turns out that the "problem" is nothing that can be solved. My wife is a lesbian, and its something she's been living with our entire relationship. We've worked through it the best we can for our children, and we're going to take our time to heal then do our best to remain friends. Its a little sad, but I've accepted that there is nothing I can do about it, We still love each other, but there is no way that we can be happy together.
Before I remarried, I was a single mom of three (8, 5, 3 at the time) and I dated a few men with full or shared custody (one had full custody of 4!) I think it really depends on the parents and how they are with kids...will they love them all and treat them all the same? If so, I don't see any problem...other than financial! Once they get to middle school age, divorce, dating, remarrying, moving is very difficult for them.
As it worked out for me, my now husband was never married and did not have any children so in some ways less complicated but then again it was a pretty big adjustment for him to walk into my life!
can single parents date single parents?
