11 Honest Reasons Men Say They Refuse To Date Single Mothers
It may seem unfair, and perhaps it is, but sometimes men have genuine and well-thought-out reasons for why they just can't bring themselves to date a single mother.
Dating can get awkward fast when one person has kids and the other is not sure they want to step into that world. For some men, the issue is not just timing, it is the idea of becoming part of a family setup they never expected.
In this story, men answer a blunt question about why they refuse to date single mothers, and their responses range from practical concerns to comments that are hard to defend. The result is a mix of honesty, frustration, and a few opinions that may say more about them than about the women they are talking about.
