Only with age does the first thing to enter your head become "dude, you just haven't found out what the fuck's up with her yet".

I had plenty of experiences like this. But hey, if the sex is great you can deal with the crazy ones for a few months before dumping them!  :D

I suggest you run for the hills before you do something really stupid.  The sex isn't worth it.  The brat kid ain't going anywhere and he obviously hates your guts.

I wasn't suggesting that you 'raise' the child, dude. Just have a heart to heart with the kid and talk to him for a few minutes to get some things established with him.

Not all single moms moving forward are going to expect you to financially help take care of their kid, especially if they're established with a good career. Some can be very prideful when it comes to that kind of thing. I had single moms tell me multiple times, 'thank you, but it's not necessary' if I every offered to pay for anything modest on behalf of the kid. But then again, most of the single mom's I dated had the kid's father for a weekend or two out of each month. It was perfect.

she's that way with her money.  She doesn't want money from me and she freely spends on me. She wants the kid's dad to pay for him and not me but he is a deadbeat and will spend money on everything except on the kid.  With COVID, the kid being home all day from school, the frustration with her life is tremendous and sadly I'm the one who gets to deal with the drama.  She argues with the dad why he can't buy the kid some shoes, gets mad and I deal with it.  It's never ending.  like Thisisoverload posted above.  Take away the kid and she is my perfect match but it's hard to deal with someone elses.

For those saying he hates me and is acting out because of me are wrong.  The kid is a shit because of his dad. Again, I'm the one here who has to deal with the constant meltdowns.  I've tried to be there, console the kid etc... some days it's okay and other days it's just a pain.  Who needs all of this extra work in a relationship?

I've been playing the single moms game for years now, there aren't many options once you get older anyway.  Since i have absolutely no interest in getting married or having kids, it's just fun to meet women and have great sex for a few months, then bail.  If they are good enough to stick around longer that's fine, but i live a very independent lifestyle and women hate it with a passion.  I am the most happy when i'm not dating someone, i just don't really need that attachment, but it's fun to date and enjoy the journey.  I've found that single moms can be great lovers and handle relationships more seriously than others, but the emotional baggage is always there.  If they have a brat kid i typically just walk at that point, i try not to meet their kid anyway but sometimes it gets to that point.

Earlier this year before the Covid nonsense started i was dating a single mom, she was pretty hot and very nice to me.  She had a 3 year old and had been recently divorced, her ex was still in the picture to help with the child so i was thankful for that.  We dated for about 3 months and she was a freak, she had no boundaries in bed and didn't expect me to play father, at first.  I only met her daughter once.  But after a while she started hinting at the "lets take my daughter here" or "vacation with my daughter".  I just couldn't do it, i knew it was all downhill from there and i had zero interest in having a serious relationship with her because she was turning into an emotional train wreck.  Serious ex-husband issues were surfacing, no thanks.  It was hard to bail on her because if you removed the baggage from the child and ex, she was a 9 out of 10 for what i want in a women.  We got along great and i don't think we ever argued about anything.  She had a good job and took good care of me as a man, not just in bed but she was always willing to just help me with random things and chill.  Didn't cause much drama and since we only saw each other on the weekends we never got tired of each other.  But the kid and her emotional baggage with her ex was way too much for me to handle.  I knew inside she wanted to be with her ex, but he had cheated on her and moved on to another chick.  Oddly enough her sister is married to a guy i work with, that's how we met.  The guy said she's dating her ex again.  Glad i dodged that bullet. ;D

The best sex you will ever have is with a recently divorced chick, but be prepared for a wild ride.  ;D
I always felt sorry for the kids because of the fact that their parents screwed up and that the mom was an emotional train wreck.  I also found in time that usually the fathers of the children were actually great guys and she was the sole reason for the divorce.  Don't believe the stories about how terrible the ex husband was unless you have proof.  Just remember that in time you will be the asshole ex.

Your rationalizing because of the sex, bro.  Think with your brain, not your penis.

Why are you going over there everyday and spending what sounds like all day there? If this woman were to ask other females for advice they'd say she was dating a loser and to cut him out of her life, and I'd doubt they'd be wrong.

You need to limit the time you spend with her. Every other day for a few hours and maybe a whole day on the weekend. Stick to dinner/movie and banging. Also get your own fucking life!

Truth.  I've dated my share of divorced or "separated" women.  I always listen to them bash their ex but after you date them for 3-4 months you are thinking maybe to call the guy and have a beer.  ;D  IME it takes about 3 months to see the true colors of most women, but some much earlier.

I have seen first hand a few real asshole ex-husbands that were abusive, but IMO most marriages are ruined by women, either directly or indirectly.

I'm bored at work so i'll share a gem of a relationship that i had.  Only time in my life that i've feared for my life from a chick.

5 years or so ago i worked with this Puerto Rican lady, she was smoking hot but had gained about 20-30 pounds of "extra" weight.  She was on her third husband, no kids; we worked for the same company and i saw her almost daily.  She was super introverted and never spoke to anyone, but i always made it a point to try and talk to her if i could; to the point that it was obvious i liked her.  Well i didn't want to push the boundaries too hard so i just kind of let it pass.  A year goes by and the company restructures, lots of layoffs and we move to a new building.  Guess who's my neighbor now?  Within like a week she's telling me everything about her and we end up going to lunch.  A few months go by and she starts talking about her husband like he's Satan himself. Time continues to go by, we go to lunch once every few weeks.  Then she shows up to work without a wedding ring; i'm like "game time"! I start flirting with her pretty hard, i can tell she likes it.  I'm trying to be cool because i really didn't want to hook up because of the work thing, but i had been wanting to bang this chick for like 3 years.

I invite her our for happy hour, we talk and drink for a while.  It's pouring rain so i offer to get her car for her in the parking lot.  She hops in the passenger side while i'm pulling up to the covered entrance and before i can even pull away from the front entrance of the place she's got her tongue down my throat.  We end up banging in the back of her SUV for a while, she begs me to stick it up her ass so i do, but damn it was dirty.  Her SUV had to have smelled like buttsex for a week.  Anyway, we end up "dating" for about 2 months while she's "separated" from her husband.  She is what they make porn movies about, still to this day i doubt i'll experience the crazy ass sex we had on a daily basis.  However, within 4 weeks i found out she is literally insane, like deep mental problems.  The most selfish person i've ever met.  Has insane anger issues, breaks shit all the time, threw stuff at me multiple times over trivial shit.  Definitely Puerto Rican!  I meet her sister and she tells me all these horrible things about her; i'm not sure why, maybe just to protect me.  We split up, she stalks me for about a month.  Posts all these lies about me on social media, which was funny because our relationship was hidden because she was still married; just made her look really bad.  Two months later she quits her job, just walks out one day.  So i'm thinking i'm safe?  Nah, over the next 3-4 months my truck was vandalized several times, my cell phone number apparently got distributed to some weird website and i had people randomly calling me like 200 times a day.  Someone shot my freaking cat with a pellet gun twice and tried to poison my dog.  I think she knew i liked my pets more than her.

Long story short, she got back with her husband and found a new job.  Funniest thing was i was at the BBQ Cookoff for the Rodeo in Houston about a year after all this happen.  I'm standing outside a tent with some friends drinking and hear this lady screaming bloody murder and breaking shit in the tent across from ours.  Here she comes stomping out of the tent and ends up walking right towards me, it was really crowded.  She gets about 10 feet from me and i wave to her while smiling.  The rage that entered her face will be burned into my mind forever, if looks could kill.  She stomps off the other direction, i see her husband exit the tent covered in something, i think she dumped a plate of food on him.  I look at him and wave, his eyes quickly move away.  He goes chasing after her as she's stomping down the lot cussing like a maniac in Spanish.

The part that messed me up was that her husband was a very nice guy.  While i was dating her i asked why she married him and she told me without hesitation "security, well you know money. I don't have to lift a finger and he pays for everything".  He spoiled her rotten and put up with all her shit.  Apparently this was her MO, after we split her sister still texts me a few times.  Apparently that's what she does, marries guys for money and cheats on them.  At least i got the freaky sex and barely spent a dime on her.  ;D

Dont worry about the kid he will be chasing girls all night before you know it. Accidentally lose a few bucks in the bathroom here and there, turn the tv extra loud so you cant hear the front door closing and you're home free.

So true. The woman will blame the man 100% but it turns out they are more than the reason things didn’t work out. Women won’t admit they were the cause. Their shit don’t stink but everyone else’s does.

Yeah unfortunately your already too far in at 8 months it's all downhill from here.

6 months to a year after you move in will be very near to or no sex, and by then you will be REQUIRED to attend all kid activities as the pseudo dad. Just skip it, onto the next one.

A woman's hierarchy of values:

a) herself

b) her kids

c) her "career" ::)  actually job

d) her friends

e) her family (mom, dad, sister, brother, cousins, etc)

f) her dog

g) her hobbies or interests

h) her "me time"

i) you (if there's any time left, usually there isn't)

This is the absolute best summary you will ever get, anywhere. Been there done that - and got the T-shirt.

Most women become extremely good at manipulating a guy's emotions while maintaining the hierarchy. I have found that the best approach is to stay arm's length emotionally. Then you own their minds.

He’s dead on. I can’t count how many days where she focuses on the kid, then work, then talks to her brother and sister , then her dumb ass girlfriends then needs a glass of wine while she “unwinds” on the couch.  If she is not asleep by 10:00 I might get to fuck her otherwise I’m the last on the priority list for that day.

Good advice. Women get away with so much these days. Usually people put their best self forward in the beginning of a relationship, but women straight out act the part to get what they want. Devious creatures who are hard to trust. Damn that pussy.

the only way a sane person would deal with the things you described is if she paid you. paid you a salary

paid for your rent or mortgage

bought you lavish gifts

if that isnt being done why are you with a single mom with a kid?

lol - you are experiencing exactly the same situation I went through some years ago. The women must buy a manual on how to play a guy. The woman I was involved with was also smoking hot-which of course blinded me to the obvious signs for a long time. My gut was telling me that it was a dead end journey but I ignored it. Eventually tho I decided "fuck this bitch" and just cut it off with her, cold  turkey. She freaked. That was 3 years ago and I moved on.

She still contacts me several times a month saying how much she misses me, haha.  I  told her the ship sailed a long time ago- and that is driving her insane. Karma.

Far too often, if you actually marry, you will be considered "dad" only when it is time to write a check or build/fix things.  If you attempt to even guide (much less discipline) any of the children, you will be reminded by those kids AND their mother that you are not their father.

Absolutely right. She’s also playing the white knight card and wants to hear sympathy. Soon you’ll be the ex and she’ll be talking shit about you.

Female with a kid. Don’t be a stupid beta provider. Bang it and move on.

You’re attached though, get it through your head, you’re not her priority and never will be.

Then she is far from ideal.

I didn't read instructions. Just went with my gut and gave her The Speech in the first week. I'm not dating your children at all. They will need your attention and I won't ever get in the way of that but I will never contribute a dollar or a minute of my time. If you have an emergency and need someone to look after them for an hour,  I'm going to say no. This is a hard limit. They are not my problem, and I'm telling you that right away so there aren't any misunderstandings later. I don't want to waste your time or my own. If you want a man who will help with them, it isn't me.

That's a totally fair position to take. If I had kids, I wouldn't expect a woman I'm dating to raise them or tolerate misbehavior from them on a regular and ongoing basis.

Imo you're undervaluing yourself. You can do better than being someone's bottom priority. If that's really how she acts, she is giving you all the information you require to know how she will continue to treat you in the future. If you choose that, you can't blame her. She's a known quantity. It's on you. If you don't want that to be your life, be awesome and complimentary as you regretfully but resolutely take your leave of her.



It would take much less than what you have described for me to adios. Even just "might get some pussy." Unacceptable. Bye bye.
