The worst part about being a single dad

I watch a lot of single dad TikTok videos, not much into dating apps. I’ve been on them and the whole “I’m looking for a relationship” and “I’m a single dad” thing, but if you actually try to develop a relationship it always seems to end with “I’m not interested in dating a man with kids”<br><br>I’m not looking for a mom for them, or some otherBS. I’m looking for a relationship. But these women don’t want kids involved. They don’t want the last 10 years of my life. They want *me*, and they want me to forget I was ever a father. <br><br>I do wish I could fast forward past all of this bullshit and get to the point where I’m comfortable just being me, and I’m not looking for validation from anyone. But I’m not there yet. Still working on that.
