Yeah a potential partner has to be cool with me having kids and understand that I am a super involved parent. I also want them to be a good role model / influence on my kids - not being a mother because the kids have a mother, but being an overall good person who can love my children and develop a meaningful relationship with them. I know this is like me getting ahead of myself, but I need to see those traits in a potential partner.
On that level it makes it important that if someone decides to message me and wants to go on a date with me, they know the info about me having young kids and that I have them 50/50 time shared with their mother. On a different note, I also don't want to waste my time and someone else's time if having kids is a dealbreaker for them.
In my pics, I had a 2 individual ones of me; 1 group shot; and 1 where I was engaged in a hobby. No selfies or bathroom shots or sunglasses. No excessive make-up either
The profile section didn't allow for too much text, but I had something as follows.
Spicy food connoisseur and meditation enthusiast. When I don't have my 2 young kids with me (50/50 time split with their mother), you can find me rock climbing, strength training, going for walks on trails, or buried in a book. If you love mountains over beaches, let's grab a drink.
I felt really stupid writing that but all of it is true. I feel like I am marketing myself. Anyways, that's the name of the game.
I am thinking of getting back on OLD and I kinda want to put my best foot forward. I am fairly decent looking and in good shape, but I am not very photogenic. I know that I come across way better in person with my personality and confidence with women but it didn't previously translate into anything interesting.
