What is the biggest challenge dating as a single parent?

Me: It's really difficult because you barely do things for yourself. What ever you do, it's for your child.... And my Kid is very protective me. A guy hugged me in front of my house cos it's been long he saw me ..... And my child took his hands off my body.

To be honest, I've not had any challenges when it comes to dating.

I've always met men who are considerate, caring and love my son. Some even end up as friends if the date doesn't grow into a relationship.

don't see such over protective attitude from your son as mere childish.Orientation is needed if not it will get worse,if you want the relationship

Hmmm.... your child really didn't like the guy. If it were me.... I can bet my life after hugging and me taking my hands off...your son would put them right back around you!

@ topic.... challenging. The person must understand it is a package... for me to date you... you need to know from jump if I like children and if your child would be part of the relationship. Your kid shouldn't even know about me until that is cleared up and the relationship is a bit young.... then the child has to be introduced and is for you to find out how your child feels about me. It he hates me... then the relationship should slow down. For the one with the child..... it is a whole lot more challenging.
As a guy... been there done that. Biggest challenge... winning the heart of the child. How?...making the mother happy ... if a gift is for the mother...one must also be for the child and by helping the mother to take better care of the child. Bad thing... if the relationship ends... the next guy stepping in got to be better or the child would ehmmm..... show him pepper and be most miserable.

I have not started dating again so I can't really say....but I don't think there should be an issue.

Personally, I don't intend to introduce every guy I date to my kids, you will only meet them when we are serious. Don't want them seeing different 'uncles', can't be playing with my children like that.
Apart from that, my daughter has a big mouth lol, don't want her going back to relate everything to her father (I dont give a Bleep about what he thinks, I just don't want him to know my business).
