Hey guys just looking for some advice really.
I'm 24 and have been a single parent ever since I was pregnant with my DC who's now 2. I now finally feel ready to start going on a few dates. Tbh I'm not looking for anything serious just a bit of fun really and to just go out! I've arranged to meet a guy through OD next week which I'm really excited about. We've been chatting for a bit, but I haven't mentioned that I have a child.
Note: I'm not in any way looking for a person who's going to be a dad figure for my DC. She has her dad who she sees every week. I'm literally just looking for something casual for me at the moment. Just to get myself back out there.
I just feel a bit uncomfortable telling complete strangers that I have a young child, just incase they turn out to be weirdos or something.
I'm just asking am I being a bit of a dishonest dickhead? I wouldn't want any guy involved in her life so do they really need to know for the first few dates? Obviously if things got more serious then I'd speak about her. But tbh I'm just looking at something really relaxed for now.
Or should I just get over myself and just be upfront from when we first start chatting online.
Advice much appreciated
