Hello, Board. I have never posted here before. But, I am officially delurking now...

Well, I have nice conversations with men by im, e-mail, phone. But, after I forward my picture.....I never hear from them again. I meet these men online from a dating site for single parents. I explain my situation, etc. The are supportive, then forward my picture and ** poof ** they are gone! Makes me disgusted.

Anyone else have experience with these type of situations?

I am posting on single parent websites. I mention that I am a soon to be single mom. I mention my circumstances in a nice not hateful manner. The father is not in the picture. He wanted me to abort this baby. I am 29 years old. I usually date men 30-35 years of age. I joined single parent sites due to my wanting a man that has children and/or loves children. I do not show a picture of myself pregnant. I don't think that is appropriate at the beginning. I have looked for single parent, single mom groups in my city. But, most are divorcees in their 40s or stay at home moms. I am not interested in dating someone that ahead of me in life and I don't have the luxury of being a stay at home mom.

I appreciate everyone's input. Thanks so much! :)

Hopefully you'll be able to find a good guy willing to accept the situation. As I said, there are ones out there - I know one! Unfortunately, he's taken now by the woman he met but it shows it can happen. But I bet you'll have better luck after you have the baby. From what I see, many guys can be a little leery of taking this situation on. Good luck!
