I really wish you'd stop behaving as though you'd met and gotten to know every single mother in the world. It's quite unflattering.
Men have a biological predisposition to desire the genetics of their family to be completely their progeny. New mothers usually have mild depression due to sleep deprivation. The difficulty of finding a man does nothing to improve their situation.

I make a bit more than that, but i do not tell anyone what i make - that would just attract golddiggers. If a woman is going to be with me, it is going to be because that she loves me, not because she wants another wallet. It is also one of the reasons why i do not date single women with kids, they are more into dating to secure a financial income and a father figure, rather than the whole concept of love.
My last female profile on okcupid was a boring science nerd. She got 200 messages in two weeks. Thirty phone numbers, forty-five invitations to dinner, and three marriage proposals.

If 3/4 of guys are, shall we say, less than competent at romance, that leaves fifty guys to chose from. In only two weeks of looking. Suppose the woman connects well with three people. Should she chose the man wit hthe less money?

Teens make mistakes, and the religious condemn abortion, which is the only practical solution.

anyways, is there an equicalent graph that shows how many pms women receive by icome?
College students receive about 25% the message volume as a woman in an established career.

So, in a nutshell, and conveniently back on topic, if you want more dates you might as well exaggerate your salary. I mean, seriously, at what point in the relationship is your new partner gonna ask to see a payslip or bank statement?
Buy a quality car, wear quality clothes, memorize a few details about a quality career, and anyone can score with women. For marriage, obviously, the truth is more important.

Lying about an average salary in the IT world? Why?
$60k is the median income of someone with a college degree irrespective of age. IT jobs start at $50k and sometimes double within five years. But most college graduates never come close to such a level of financial success.

No, their children will be number one to them, I don't see any problem with them having their kids as priority (actually I'd expect them to put their kids first).
The only reason I hesitate dating a single parent is because I don't want to be thrown straight in the deep end family life wise; I'm bad enough with kids as it is.

Hmmm, my profile is a boring accountant nerd and I got nothing like that in my first two weeks. Maybe some types of nerds are more appealing than others? :P

I see that you´ve moved on but I felt the need to say this:

I understand some of the members have had problems when they were approaching MOTAS and this can lead to some bitterness... that being said we try to encourage healthy discussions at all times and personal attacks/attacks to a certain subset of the population arent welcome(if you have some issues with a certain subset we can try to help you as much as we can but attacking them isnt going to help you).


Glad to see sme of you are trying to stablish a healthy discussion from certain attacks though.

Upbeat, intellectually challenging, and good career. In a metro area.

My self-summary
I am an engineer, and plan my life so I can enjoy it to the fullest. So when I have a contract I'll be working my butt off. The rest of my time is free to explore my other interests.

You should message me if
I used to think about myself a lot. That got boring after a while, so nowadays I like chatting about ideas. Religion or science, or the big issues of the universe.
If you've got a big topic to discuss, that would make my day.
