I don't

However you can never consider a single mom without putting the child in context

I have no issues with ex..

That's the truth

No one is perfect and we all make mistakes at one time or the other. And as the adage says "To sin is human,but to forgive is divine"

But I have noticed that it is always difficult for ladies that have issues out of wedlock to get a man that will love and marry them. After all,having a child isn't a disease.

Why is this so?

It depends on how the woman plays her ball.

Some single ladies cannot even find a husband na im Fiberasima (abi wetin be her name) don get five under her belt. And she has kids!

Many things are involved here but the salient reason in this part of the world is the societal norm. Don't forget a woman was meant to be "deflowered" on wedding night. With this at the back of people's minds, the man would ponder the acceptability of his decision before going ahead.
Other reasons are; responsibility and custody of the child, antecedent of the lady, the bond (love) that exists between the man and the woman e.t.c.
However, a woman could weather the storm if she's resolute on what she want in a relationship. Desperation, anxiety and apprehension lead to making mistakes and setting wrong priorities.

What is the wisdom in marrying a woman with an 8yo child? What makes that one a hypocrite for telling his friend the truth. Why marry a single mother when you can have your pick of a better demographic. I'm afraid, that guy was right. A new car has more value than second, third, or fourth hand. It's simple logic, really.

u comparing women with car..are they properties ? angry angry

Most men wont want the drama involved with Single mothers

Some of them are still emotionally involved with their ex baby daddy

Some carry the baggage of what their baby daddy did to them into their new relationship

There is always the fear that the child/children from the previous marriage after spending a lot on them would never see you as their father and would still look for their own biological father

Moreover single girls are in excess demand, why would one need to go for an after 1?

You are right Dyt. This is the kind of attitude that get you a man. The issue here is complex-mixed. The problem lies with the single mums who had lost confidence in themselves and have devalued their self-worth. Once a man sense you are desperate whether you are single or single mum, the alter will be far o.

Again, taking care of their children is a huge task. The lady may not be able to go out at odd times. She has to share her love between her child and new boyfriend and may not even have the time to groom herself as she should. It is really a complex issues. A man has to be understanding to wanna share his life with a single mum.

And who says it's all single mothers that had issue out of wedlock? What abt single mothers as a result of divorce,infidelity from d side of d husband? Spouse death? How many ladies still keep unwanted pregnancies? Want to see single mothers as a result of wedlock go to KENYA..

U sound like u'v been overused. How many children do u hav now outside wedlock? 10? No man will beg a lady with kids for marriage in this part of the world, except if the guy is handicapped, has a low self-esteem, blind, poor and needs the lady for financial support or just plain stupid. Y should I, with my money settle for an overused lady with a child or children when there are a lot of young, fresh and untouched ladies out thr.

It simply depends on how far is your understading of life as regards talking about a union. The fact that a single lady has a child does not make her not to be a good spouse. How many single without child that are so worn out because of their past events and may not even be productive again without your knowledge? Some single without issues are so attached to their as if they were maaried before. So.what difference with a married one?Some ladies found themeselves singles by circumstance beyond them. Forexample, 24 yrs that got married and have a child and the husband died after three years due to accident. Is that her fault?
Mindset, social acceptance, indecision, Unnecessary criteria for spouse selection and not being realistic are major part of the problems.

May your days be long and fruitful. Sadly, those set of guys are on the increase. Any man who marries a single mother does not have value or does not understand his own value.

Abeg, don't bring lies here. So, men have left the relatively unspoiled and are searching foe women with children to marry? All liars will go to hell, I hope you know that. We're not talking about men with low sperm count here o, we're talking healthy virile men. Single mothers can make do with the biological dregs of society, we healthy ones wouldn't mind. grin
