Summary:Your time is valuable and you shouldn't give it away to someone who will never prioritize you.
BODY
Say what you will, online dating has its perks especially if you live in a metropolitan area. Tons of single eligible bachelorettes right at your fingertips. But if you live in a small city surrounded by farmland like I do, most of those single cuties aren't that eligible. Why? They are all Single Moms.
It was shocking to see the amount of Single Moms when I signed up for OkCupid a couple of months ago. It makes sense when you think about how busy they are: they don't have time to go out to bars/clubs anymore (some still do though) and meet men. What's worse, most of them are around 20 years old, and have one, two, or even THREE children by that age! With different fathers! You do the math - how early did they have to do start getting knocked up by alphas in order to pop that many kids?
Regardless of their sexual promiscuity and poor decision making (which is enough to disqualify any Single Mother from being anything more than a fuckbuddy) the Single Moms I've encountered all have a few common traits they use to describe themselves. I will attempt to explain what they really mean below, so you don't fall victim to the Saviour complex that us fellas are predisposed to.
-
I am not a pushover / I will not change for anyone: these women have been damaged beyond repair. Not a single submissive bone is left in their body. They are inflexible, unwilling to please and submit to a man's frame, and generally a pain in the ass. Sounds like fun right?
-
My entire world revolves around my son/daughter(s): This one is literal. Their child is the center of attention, which I respect. It's great for the kid. But for a man looking to date the Single Mom, this is a disaster. You are in for last minute cancellations (no babysitter, kid has a cold), long therapy sessions where she complains about being a Single Mother, and other nonsense that no man should have to put up with (unless she is the mother of HIS child).
-
If I'm not working I'm spending time with my son: I will have no time for you, and in order to keep you around I will appeal to your Saviour complex and complain about how hard my life is. All I do is work and raise my kid. I don't have time to cook for you and help you clean your apartment. I don't even fuck as good as I used to. Those days are over, I've matured now.
-
Always working even on my day off: I will not end up in your bed on my day off. I'm too busy being a Single Mother!
-
We have been through rough times: she is damaged goods and/or her life is full of drama fellas. What do you think is going to happen with all that drama if you start dating her? You guessed it! It's going to spill over into your life too!
-
Looking for friends first / not looking to jump into anything right away (and other variations): not only do you have to put up with drama and solve her issues, but you're not getting anything out of it because you automatically start in the Friendzone. If you've ever been there, then you know it's almost impossible to get out of. It's like starting a videogame on hard mode with 5% health. You're going to lose. If you think acting like a therapist and showering her kids with gifts is going to make her open up those legs, take your right hand and slap yourself. AWALT. You can't friendship your way into pussy.
-
Not looking for booty calls / I will not degrade myself: this is literally the phrase that shows up in EVERY Single Mother profile I've encountered. Translation: it's impossible to degrade herself any lower after she's been pumped, impregnated, and dumped at least once.
-
I'm looking for a family-oriented gentleman: she is looking for a Beta Bucks to keep her wrinkly ass comfortable for the rest of her life with very little investment on her part.
-
Not looking for a dad to my kids, just need someone who isn't afraid of kids. If you don't want kids then MOVE ALONG: literally what she means by this is that she IS in fact looking for a dad to her kids. But you know how women are, they love to confuse you by contradicting themselves.
-
If you smoke pot or do drugs, move along (usually followed by it negatively impacted my life): the man who knocked me up did those things, and I found him very attractive. I even let him cum inside me, but he still didn't stick around. I guess some of them do learn eventually, too bad they had to learn the hard way.
LESSON(S) LEARNED
It's surprising to see how open Single Mothers are about their personality. These are just some of the common themes I encountered. They really put it all out there, you just have to know how to interpret it. The average guy reads this shit and thinks I'm gonna save her. Stop that nonsense fellas! You are far better off getting yourselves a gal without kids. She will be more attentive, willing to please, flexible, and actually has time to see you. If you play your cards right with the right gal, YOU will be the center of her world, not some other man's 3 year old sperm.
Stay smooth fellas!
