Good to know who you are dealing with early. So little lost, and almost certainly a lucky escape, I'd say.

[Millsy2008]

Definately a lucky escape. Your child is the most important person in your life so if somebody can't accept that then, feck em!

[Katster]

oh defo, soon as i realised i knew i wasn't interested! not happened before everyone else has just accepted its part of who i am, like i said feels a bit odd knowing there is ppl who are like that!

oh well stick to the mean boys in future i think lol

[Millsy2008]

I've been biting my lip all morning for fear of coming across as harsh.....but. Perhaps the whole reason this bloke handled it differently from the others is because you never mentioned it at first? If it was me I'd be thinking a kid would kind of be something you'd mention right from the start??

He obviously wasn't for you, but I do think that sort of thing is something people need to know about from the very beginning.

[Katster]

it is the sort of thing i would mention right away and always have done previously in addition to what i said earlier and had a convo with a girl from work at lunch n she said she thought i had mentioned it cuz she heard me say my wee girls name i was pretty drunk so don't mind much of what i said but she is sure i did say! tbh i was only texting the guy 4 24 hours not like anything happened or i had said i wanted anything to happen, think 24 hours is a reasonable time after meeting someone to be telling them anyway,i would neva hide the fact i had a child she is more important to me than anyone!

but to not even text back n say oh i didn't realise or not interested or summing doesn't say much 4 a person far as am concern!believe it or not i have been out with guys before that have not told me they have children, but think its more to do with the type of bloke i go for

[Millsy2008]

Aye, that type of person would probably also not text you back because he didn't like your ingrown toe nail or something too

Just making sure you are aware it's a big thing for someone to take on, and something which should be known from the start.....which you obviously are.

24 hours isn't a huge amount of time

You shouldn't have to tell somebody that you have a child straight off... It's not like there's anything wrong with having a kid so why would you have to confess this.

[sadwitch]

I don't think I could go out with someone who had a child especially a young one. Just being honest. Not that feeling like that is an excuse for being rude.

[Millsy2008]

You shouldn't have to tell somebody that you have a child straight off... It's not like there's anything wrong with having a kid so why would you have to confess this. 24 hours isn't any length of time either.

He can't be that special anyway... If he was he would have gotten to know you better and your child would have come up in conversation.

How do you know that he's actually stopped texting you because you told him you had a kid? He might just be busy or had phone problems.

Just thought I'd pop by to send out hearty and happy congratulations to all the people out there clever, edgy and all round bloody amazing enough to remain independent.

Well done people. No really. These are great days we are living my bretheren, great days. Look around you at the breeders and insecure and see how well you have done. We all know that since it turned out God doesn't really seem to mind where to put your bits, the idea of settling down, the idea of having to marry someone to get a bit of action, is anachronistic. Why "settle" (FFS, look at the word!!), when there's simply no need to any more. Why spend you life being slightly annoyed at some poor bloke/girl, when you can go out and have fun with lots? There's just no logic to relationships any more. Desperate people cling to them in order to stave off loneliness. The feeble minded want one 'cos they are told they need it to be "complete". The insecure look for people to help them out.

As you singletons are stronger people than that, aware that spending some time on your own won't kill you. So why burden yourself with these freaks and oddjobs and fruity loops? Just for a little nookie, that he or she will probably recind at some point soon enough anyway due to above insanity, and was never very good at anyway because "being horny makes Jesus hate me", or some other such nonsense.

Those of you still looking. Good luck my friends, you're gonna need it. For those who have worked out that it's all a con. Well done. You are the chosen ones! Look on the limited and restricted and generally unhappy and compromised lives of your friends, and laugh at your fortune.

You got dumped. No need to be bitter towards those who are currently loved up waiting to be dumped.

[Peevis]

If he's been dumped and he wants to come in to the singles thread to be bitter then he's in the right place!

[Radar]

I just speak the truth, if you can see that the Emperor has no clothes, it has to be articulated, despite ridicule from the brainwashed!

[rabid]

Not been dumped. Had to do it just before Christmas though!. Horrible. Simply horrible.
