Romance / Re: What Are Possible Dangers Of Marrying A Single Mom In This Era? by balaclava: 4:57am On Feb 03 |
Here is a short list of problems you may encounter but not limited to these 1. Being a "partner" means you get to pay for half- if not more: I have seen men putting money away for college for a kid that´s not his. Buying ridiculous amounts of brand name clothes, expensive homes etc all in an effort to be in a so-called "family". 2. The Family you just got into is by invitation only: In being a step- parent you are not the basic unit. The mother and child together are the basic unit. No matter what is said or mentioned before marriage, you will never come before her child. You will always be in a family and relationship where you come second, maybe third. 3. No matter what you think her ex is going to be there forever: In just about every case the child´s father does not seem to be in the picture during the dating and courtship stage but seems to suddenly show up after. Just about every time you will be dragged into the endless bickering and fights they have and you will not be liked by him "its only natural remember" 4. Her kid will most likely not like you very much. Let´s face it you´re sleeping with their mom and most of the time the child will see you as a roadblock to his parents getting back together. Most likely the mom has made you the giver of discipline in the relationship, being the man and all which results in the kid hating you. 5. All that time you had together with your new love will end after marriage. The number one job of a single mom is simply to be a mom. She is not a party girl, hiker, camper, biker, clubber etc. Just be prepared for a frontal assault on your time and money after marriage. You will find your weekdays taken up with homework, PTA meetings, suppers at home, and early bed times. Weekends will be the time for the child´s extra-curricular activities and other activities 6. You will wonder what happened to all your money. Most men involved with a single mom report that their money seems to dry up. Children are expensive and expensive like most men have no idea. Between school supplies, clothing, vast amounts of food, babysitters if you ever want to go out, medications, fees, sports, supplies, toys and such; well, there will be little left. 6 Likes 1 Share |
Romance / Re: What Are Possible Dangers Of Marrying A Single Mom In This Era? by balaclava: 4:56am On Feb 03 |
Since you asked, I'm going 2 give the cold hard facts to you comprehensively. Contrary to popular media-myth I have yet to meet a single mom who was career driven, carefree, balanced, happy; doing it all type gal as often portrayed in most media outlets. The reality I have seen over the years is usually a stressed out, overworked, debt stricken woman who really had no idea children cost so much in time, effort and money. Their careers are on hold as they need to balance their child with sickness, school activities etc versus moving up whatever career ladder they are on. Most single moms are raising their children with help of an extended family member (usually their mom), a bevy of friends and other single moms they find in support groups. It is usually not a pretty picture at all. Somewhere along the way, usually quite quickly they come up with the idea that they need a "partner" to help them in their new enterprise of having a child and the sooner they can get one the better. Realizing they have a bit of a disadvantage with having a child and being in the dating scene they resort to several well known strategies to get a partner. One trait that seems to come to the forefront with most men who are dating single moms is just how wonderful a woman they really are. Most men cannot for the life of them figure out why another man would abandon a woman like her. It has been stated that single moms are more caring, compassionate, great lovers, excellent cooks, laugh at all your jokes etc they seem to be ideal mates. No matter what you see as a man there is something else going on do not forget that. Her plan is to eventually get a partner one way or another. You are the prize and she is going to earn it. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Marry if you want to. It has its advantages; companionship, combined resources, nuclear kinda family procreation, children and a lot more. ...also has its low points, subtle bondage 😀, Cheating, Fights/Misunderstandings and lots more. Do whatever suits you but know that going forward it's your responsibility. 4 Likes 1 Share |

This move is going straight from her mouth into the garbage, they ain't married. But in a case where she can prove that the original intention was for you to share the beneficial interest and that they've at one time made payment for your rent, they can be entitled to half your property. 😀 Like the fk? Voila! |

Sorry, I can't recommend 3 but permit me to recommend the one I have tested & has all the features you mentioned. I recommend Redmi 12c (budget phone) I am currently using it, the only downside *for me* is the flashlight. |
