Would this put you off?

I’ve been seeing a guy for a while, I’m a single parent. My DC was supposed to be staying over at my parents house at the weekend and me and him planned a date and then I would be stopping over at his house

I had to cancel as my DC was no longer able to stop at my parents house. He said I could just bring her round to his house and he’d put the tv on for her whilst we ‘get busy’think he was just thinking of one thing. He has not met her before

Would this out put you off? I said it wouldn’t really be possible as it would be her bed time and at first he said he understood but I haven’t heard from him hardly since then

"you can stay over and stay as long as you like" rather than "I'd love if you could stay and then we could have a great day tomorrow doing X thing that I think you'd like and that Ive planned for us". Yuk. Its like he's saying he'll graciously give you some of his time if YOU like. Please just block.

Thanks everyone, I just feel unworthy, feel really low about myself now

Ask yourself why you feel low about making a really intelligent, boundaried decision that has stopped you being used for sex by a lazy, uninterested man.

YOU ARE WORTHY. Of attention, of respect, of admiration, of thought.

And while you're working on yourself, think of your daughter, who is worthy of more than a man who, the first time he meets her, wants to stash her out of the way watching TV while he shags her mother.

Thank you everyone for your comments. I didn’t see him last night so he’s gone silent on me now, think he expects me to come running

Well, make sure you disappoint him in that.

If I'm reading this coŕrectly,he expects you to chauffeur him around too.? I don't think I would want him anywhere near my DC regardless of what he wanted to do in the next room. What an example to a boy ( if your DC is a boy) of how not to treat women ,and if its a DD do you want her to see her mother involved with a man like this. Get out now! You are worth so much more .

He's not a viable option, OP.
