Dipped my toe in. Talking to someone for a couple of days.Haven’t told him I’m separated (D pending) and have kids. He hasn’t asked, despite my profile not stating one way or the other. I feel I should tell him now? What do you think?

Yes, I would, because if you like him but he doesnt want the dynamic of children then you will only get hurt by investing in him

Yes say something. Honesty is best

BettyBo33 · 02/07/2019 22:07

I told him, he seemed cool with it, but obviously not because I haven’t heard from him since! Oh well. I’d better get used to it!

You have the option on there to show that you have children on the bio. I did that so it was clear from the outset.

You need to put it on your profile or you’ll just keep getting disappointed. It’s a deal breaker for many people and you don’t want to waste your time.

BettyBo33 · 02/07/2019 23:52

Options are ‘have kids, want more’ or ‘have kids, don’t want more’ Where’s the ‘have kids, I might want more with the right person but if I don’t have anymore I’m equally happy box?!

You could just have it written on your profile that you have kids?

" ‘have kids, I might want more with the right person..."

If you might want kids, then pick "have kids, want more".

I don't think you should be sharing this information at this stage. You're not even on a date. Let alone at the point where your marital status and number of children would affect him. I would back off if someone seemed this keen straight off the bat.

Thanks for the views. I told him because he suggested meeting up so I thought there’s no point wasting his time, or mine. But I’m the future I’ll list it.
