RogerS: I am what you would call (extremely early ;) middle age, and I only date women very close to my age. Many of them are looking for “The Man”. They tend to be very accomodating up front, but develop complications quickly. That sort of thing can lead to the serial bed hopping thing I was talking about.

Sgt Ted: Yes, I agree, but it was like watching someone kick a puppy.

As a single father I find that I do not have much in common with women (or men) who have who have never married and/or don’t have children. Both are life changing experiences, and while they might be interesting people we’re just not on the same page.
