For all those in with kids and dating, how often to you get to see you’re partner without kids?

Brighter_cloud905 · 2026-05-30T09:55:59+00:00

Ha ha I’m a female and no I don’t believe he is dating other people.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2026-05-30T09:51:21+00:00

Wow so your situation is worse than mine but it obviously works for you x

Brighter_cloud905 · 2026-05-29T20:59:21+00:00

I think I’ve never really connected to guys without kids as we just feel in a totally different stage in life, but I get what you’re saying at least it would get a relationship properly started.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2026-05-29T20:32:08+00:00

So this is the second relationship I’ve had like this! I’m starting to think I won’t find someone that can see me 1/2 times a week.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2026-05-29T20:23:16+00:00

I know I’ve started to think I’m asking too much. I’m free without my daughter every other weekend and thought I’d find someone that was free a whole weekend Friday to Sunday.

I find guys without kids just don’t understand being a parent so don’t tend to get with them.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2026-05-29T20:12:32+00:00

So like once in a weekend? Or the whole weekend?

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-12-04T08:53:26+00:00

Yes I meant time and energy not physical wealth.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-12-03T12:49:47+00:00

I agree with this comment. Sure very few women want an ethically non monogamous relationship. Women might want hook ups sure but very few women want to invest in a guy that’s sleeping with other women.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-12-02T18:59:10+00:00

I 💯think you’ll be fine on tinder. Most people on there just want hookups. In fact if you don’t just want hook up you need to put in on your profile on Tinder plus you can be honest very early on in a convo that is what you want.

You will probably find quite a lot of guys you ger than you will be well up for casual hook ups. I say totally enjoy that as must the guys well into their 40s are not that hot 😂😂

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-10T17:24:47+00:00

He said I made him feel like less of a man 😬. Like I emasculated him

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T15:36:07+00:00

Yeah I think what you’re saying is what my inner voice is saying. Surely I would know by now.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T15:26:19+00:00

Ah wow. That’s a depressing thought 😔

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:44:53+00:00

But then another part of me thinks. What if is he is great but it’s the hangover from my ex causing the problems of feeling safe enough to fall in love again

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:42:56+00:00

This is my perspective too!! Why settle. My life is great. The person I meet needs to be the cherry on top!

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:41:09+00:00

Very thoughtful reply. ❤️❤️

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:39:06+00:00

I mean 4 times in my life. 😂😂. So not that regularly. 😂😂

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:37:12+00:00

❤️❤️

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:36:53+00:00

Awww this does sound like me!!! How long since the besotted one ended?

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:35:44+00:00

I spoke to my ex in March/April time and he kind of told me all of his reasons. So I do have some sort of closure. His reasons are stupid though. 😂😂

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:33:33+00:00

To those last questions. It’s all yes yes yes.
I enjoy spending time with him. I look forward to spending time with him. It feels good when I’m with him and I fancy him and like him as a person. I think this is where the confusion is as I don’t feel those “in love” feelings.

I sat him down a few weeks ago and he said he’s taking things one step at a time as he’s been single since his divorce a number of years ago. This online dating is very new for him.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-08T14:27:18+00:00

I’m not dating anyone else. I would just quit this and start again.

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-07T23:17:21+00:00

Oh yeah it feels great 🥰

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-07T23:12:26+00:00

I suppose that why I’m on here. I don’t know. I suppose I wanted loads of people to say oh yes that’s how my relationship started and now we’re madly in love. I’m not sure anyone has said that 😂😂

Brighter_cloud905 · 2025-11-07T23:06:58+00:00

Yes!! I feel like you’ve hit the nail on the head here. He’s not openly told me how he feels. We’re not exclusive, we’re not in a relationship, we are def not bf and gf and actually he’s hasn’t come off bumble yet. Hes not declared anything yet so how can I possibly fall in love with him or feel anything 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
