7 Dating Tips For a Single Dad

5. Don’t get your dates home

If you want to extend your date or hook up with them and spend the night, do not invite them over to your place. Seeing women emerge from your house time and again will morally weaken your children, making them believe in flings rather than love. It also doesn’t look good to your neighbors who could spread vicious gossip to scandalize you that could make your children irritable and angry if it reaches their ears.

6. Mention your status before dating anyone

Before you meet up a woman for a date, it is vital that you inform her about your single with kids status. Few women would accept a man and his children from a former spouse with maturity and love. So make sure you filter out girls who will not be up for becoming a stepmother in the future, if things go well.

7. End the relationship if your children and girlfriend are not gelling

If you have put in your best efforts but are still not able to see her being a part of your happy family, you should head for a breakup. However, many a time your children could be the wrong ones treating your girlfriend unfairly. Think about the times the children and your partner have interacted and if the fault lies in your kids’ behavior and you both truly love each other, get committed. The children will come around sooner or later.
