It's the way the society demeans a man's choice that irritates me, yikes!!! undecided...

OP...
The reason why most men don't want to marry a single mother is not because of any St.upid "fear", it's because of CHOICE!!!! undecided...

Most men don't want single mothers, PERIOD!!!!! undecided...

Y'all need to start accepting men's choice(s) in women and stop trying to demean men for having and exercising it undecided...


Personally, single mothers are a no go area for me, and my son's relationship wise undecided...

I don't care how she became a single mother, that's IRRELEVANT!!! undecided...

But as long as there's a well cultured 18 - 24year old virgin out there, I'd rather be castrated than marry a single mother AND THAT'S MY CHOICE!! undecided...

There is so much at stake marrying single mothers. When the relationship fails, you lose her, you lose the child by default, you lose your time and property to her, you lose your sanity. You lose on all sides. When you are together, you hear things like, "My child", from the woman when issues come up, when she invests it is for her child, not the family, you take the risk to invest in the child who may later take sides with his/her mother, it is always you against them. The risks far outweigh the benefits of marrying a single mother.

The ONLY exception is when God directs you to marry one. Such single mother will be different from the herd.
God can’t direct you to marry rubbish that can later end you while you still have a lot of single girls all around town to choose one from. Leave single mothers to their spouses to continue from where they stop

I have single mom who is married now but my child is with me, this woman want to sleep with me till date, though i was sleeping with her when she was dating the said guy but i give up when she got married to him. Single moms are very dangerous and shameless.
Another of my guy has the same experience and the said child need dna because she was sleeping with both men before she get pregnant and the child is a photo copy of my friend, but she said the child belong to her present guy because my guy Bleep her up.. Never in my life will i ever marry any single mom except circumstances which is rare..

Never date a single mother until you're crystal clear about what rendered her the title. My sympathy for 1/100 who were victim of mal-treatment from men.

I once had sympathy for them but they are worse. One day, the ops would post my personal experience with SMs....I went through hell...none, I think should earn my respect. I stand to be corrected by my fellow men who had encountered a sincere one.

However, rather than castigating them, my advice for men is simple: don't fall for their stories, fall not beauty, don't be moved by crocodile tears, do your investigation properly from both ends and be sure it worths the investment.

Brothers, be wise.... something, somehow contributed to their singleness.

I have spoken from a bitter experience, don't be the next victim.

Single women are with lots of emotional baggages that single guys shouldn't venture into for peace of mind..I don't mind single dads going for single women..even women who have dated several men might av been damaged emotionally and become highly distrustful or toxic while some become less assertive for fear of them being dumped again..so not good for themselves and their new partner.

Meet a girl as young as 16 and she will tell you that she will only marry a rich, handsome man (not considering how ugly and poor she may be).
Men need to start setting high standards too.
For me

2) Must be beautiful
3) Must high iq ( I no wan born kids wey books no go fit enter their head)
4) Will be between 18-24
4) Finally must respect and submit.

It takes a lot to marry a single parent.


Great amount of time needs to be given to communication, patience and therapy for the adults and the kids involved.

I would honestly advise any single mom not to remarry or marry.

Have a longterm partner .

Date but marry after your kids are in the university.

Or if you marry stay separately.


It takes great maturity and patience plus teamwork to have a successful union with single parent of either gender .

With the kind of comments i read here, most single mothers will just continue to deceive men that their kids are their siblings cos majority have the mindset that single mums are no go area. Am not a single mum but I can assure you that most single mums are great to be with. If not for anything, men should go for them for the fact that they are fertile and can give birth. Secondly having a child already calling you Dad and u learning parenting skills before yours arrive is not something u pay from the market. And children provoke Gods blessing most times so when u dedicate your time to father a child that is not yours biologically, you are invoking Gods blessing. The few men I've interviewed concerning this issue gave excuses like "I don't want to compete or share my love with another man's child. Haba? na small pikin dey give some men complex? grin Give single mothers a chance cos many of them already learnt their lessons and will become great spouse if given the opportunity to love again. Otherwise dem go just dey deceive una say na my Mama last born and u will still train the child either directly or indirectly grin

Lies!! Lies!! Iies!!! Bunch of false advantages every man dont need in his life.
Having one child doesn't automatically make u fertile ..there are millions of women with only one child unable to make more.....

. Men don't need to learn parenting skills with another person's child that the mother will always complain and scrutinize his pattern of discipline because the child isn't his......

No be only Blessing..... Na ngozi ...... Most single mothers I've seen are always broke looking for who to throw their burden on and frustrate with their ptsd.....so where is the blessing.... Lies..lies...lies...thats all u poured up here...


Even u will question ur own son say "he nor see any single girl without kids for road to start life with??
U pple know how to advise other women's sons badly with fake advantages u listed up there...but if e reach ur turn, u head go correct and see the evil disadvantages clearly

Dancebreaker:


If you can, avoid marrying a single mother. It does not matter why she is single. It also does not matter how young the kids are when you married their mum as people erroneously believe. They will soon know you are not their real father.

She might be grieving over a guy she loved or bitter over a guy who broke her heart. Either way, she's wounded. You are not to be mending a heart as a starting point in a relationship. Women only truly love their own biological child. Her love is primarily towards a child that is not yours before you even start.

This is not theory. I have seen it up close in several families. 40 to 60 years later, the men suffered in the hands of their stepchildren, especially if the men outlived the women. Step kids abandoned them.

The men used their youth/vital resources that could have built wealth/energy to help raise their stepchildren but whatever they did was NEVER enough.

Over the years, the men even had to become very careful when disciplining the step kids, otherwise accusations of being wicked because they were not their biological kids flew around.

Only an exceptionally good woman is worth marrying as a single mother. Because you can't be sure if the single mother you want to get involved with is among the exceptional 1%, it's a massive gamble. Not what a single guy should be doing. Frustration and ingratitude are almost certain ahead.

You can date a single mum but marriage, be extremely careful.

Words! cool

There are two ways to gain experience in life:

You either learn from the experiences of others or live through one yourself.

Single mothers in this country have not covered themselves in glory. You act like we don't see them around us, notice their movements, or observe the things they do.

Nigerian men are venerated for their simphood. If they're saying these women are a no go area, it is because whatever they or someone they know endured during a relationship with a single mother left a mark.

Nigerian women on a normal day are not appreciative, very selfish, and ruthless. Then you add a baby that isn't yours to the mix. A lot of men have tried it. And the horrific tales they tell is enough to give any man pause.

That "the kid is a sib" deceit is for someone who isn't street smart. Capping when one area boy go cast on top Origin.

Well she might end up firing herself in the foot when the man she’s in a relationship get to know she has child already. Lies like this end up with 4 different baby fathers with none in her life. Think before u lie ok

They don't need to deceive men. This is akin to men who deceive women under the premise that women love lies. You can just say the truth and hope he accepts you that way.

There is something called secondary infertility. You can born one and not be able to born another. Nothing to say single mothers are certified fertile for life.

Single mothers are the norm in riverine terrains.

Their attitude has nothing to do with motherhood. Those are your average promiscuous women who have had way too many abortions until they allow one get to term. The birth of the child does not slow them down or give them an epiphany. If they had standards before, now they're even lower.

Babe wen u need 500 for 2.5GB data to nack before go accept foodstuff wen remain for house.

Those people are on a different planet. There is no big future or dreams to aspire to. At 11 they realize there's nothing out there for them. There is no escape, especially for those, actually most of them, who are not book smart. So they just start f*cking, raising kids, fishing and doing whatever menial tasks to survive.

Their way of life is very different from what most city folks are accustomed to. And I'm not trying to be elitist.
