I've had experience with two people who had sole custody. My STRONG advice is not to get too committed and to keep actively dating others

I have 2 kids too, he wants me to go to a water park with him/his daughter, and me and my kids.

imho, depends on the age of the kids. Mine are 6 and I don't think they read into any of these get togethers. When they're older they get a lot wiser.

Personally I think it's a red flag to describe himself as doing "odd jobs" -- most people who have a career of some sort describe themselves by what they do then perhaps add that they're looking for work.

He's too eager, imho - I'd be fearful of him trying to use the kids as bait to get together.

Depending on how you feel I'd recommend no date or a date w/o kids.
