What is "mindless relationship experience"?

Auto correct for kidless relationship.

I’m not ready for kids I want to have a fun relationship first.

What is fun for you?

Cuddling, spontaneous walks, playing games together, going hiking or camping, going shooting, lots of sex, watching tv together etc. not having to worry about kids, feeding them, bathing them, watching them, what they’re doing, etc. when you have kids you don’t have a life you don’t have fun, it’s all about them. And having 4 kids is 4 times that.

Women with kids all say the same thing, kids come first, kids before you, kids are most important. I want a relationship where I’m first and most important to them and vice versa. Most people had thwt before they had kids, most of the single moms had that before they had kids.
A guy who also had that will probably be a better fit for them, a real man with his life together who can provide for 3-4 kids. I certainly can’t provide for 4 kids, I’m not willing to sacrifice everything I own and all my income and savings for some other guys kids all while having no parental rights or say in raising them.

It’d be different if I got with some woman and we had a kid. We’d also had the relationship I desire first like most people with kids had.

Guess you might say it’s just about sex for me but it isn’t but I won’t feel more ashamed then I do for wanting sex. I have high sex drive and most people without kids have lots of sex. And dating a single mom means zero sex.
Honestly i dont know if I want kids anymore. I’d have to have a relationship for few years to see if I and her would want kids. My uncle and aunt never had kids they happy together. If o was younger I’d for sure want kids but I’m old now. A lot of people my age have teenage kids, and I would rather date a 20 old and feel 20. So that’d be super weird. Might end up getting along better with their kids then them.

So I just want to be in a relationship where we can do whatever we find fun at the time any time.

Maybe if I was super desperate but it’s irrelevant as single moms don’t want to date me. They like most women want a guy with his life together and have more legit reason for it.

Okay.
I would think hiking, camping and shooting sound promising as activities where you can meet people with similar ideas of fun.
Can you do more of it? Just for fun.

Not much different from "Genocide in Middle East. Gas prices record high."

They’re activities you need to know people to do not ones you meet people doing.
I don’t have a car so I can’t do them anyways.

As much as I want to I need to not buy more guns and accessories since I now don’t know anyone who can take me shooting. :cry:

No trekking camps organised by fans of trekking, open for newcomers?
Well, I would know where to search for them in Poland. Don't you have trekking websites advertising organised camps?

Sounds like Star Trek.

There’s walking groups but it requires one have a car
The hiking trails are all hour out of town except small park in Eugene.
