Something Is Definitely Wrong Here

E-mail Submitted by Dennis:

What if I told you that your dream girl was just an email away?  What if all you had to do was to reply to this message with a "yes I want to meet you?"  What if writing back to me would make all of your dreams come true?  What if I'd treat you like a god, if we'd get along, laugh, love, and grow old together?  What then?  Would you write me back if those things were assured?

Of course you would!

But as soon as I mention that I have a kid, "WHAHO HOLY SHIT SHE'S GOT A KID IT'S LIKE DISGUSTING DEATHPOX LEAVE ME ALONE WOMAN WITH KID!"  NEWS FLASH: HAVING A KID IS NOT THE END OF MY LIFE OR THE WORLD!  GUESS WHAT?  IT'S THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO ME!  YOU DON"T KNOW WHAT LOVE IS UNTIL YOU HAVE A KID TO HUG AND TO HOLD.  THANK GOODNESS YOUR PARENTS HAD KIDS OR OTHERWISE YOU WOULDN"T BE ALIVE!  WHAHO!  IMAGINE THAT!

Having a kid is NOT a strike against me.  It is beautiful, natural, and I should receive rewards for it!  No one rewards me, but I'm treated consistently like I'm some sort of idiot for getting knocked up in the first place!  Maybe my ex is the idiot for sticking me with this beautiful child and running off to parts unknown!  He's the hero!  I'm the villain!  SOMETHING'S WRONG HERE!

So please take a look at my profile and I invite you to decide for yourself - would you still date me if I had no kids?  Then you should date me if I do.  Simple as that.

    Sad. I get why she must be frustrated, but sounding crazy is NOT the way to do it!

    She almost could have pulled this off if the second paragraph wasn't so psychotic. :( I have a friend (coincidentally named "Terri") who's having the same problem. She's got a great daughter (middle school aged) and is having a hard time finding someone who'll date her, knowing that she has a child. Hopefully both Terris will find someone who's man enough to take a chance on loving her and her kid.

    ^ ... did the doctor give her the 'courtesy' stitch down there to help with the expelling of said child from her uterus?

    ^but Important...besides...this site is full of questionable letters, comments and postings. Don't call it such just because your friend is in that situation...that's a tad lame.

    Having a kid definitely does have a huge impact on your dateability, especially when it's the "They are my world" kind (Seriously, that line is used by hundreds of people on dating sites), it just warns guys that they wouldn't be getting the attention or free time from them they would from a baggage-less person, your kid may be magical and divine to you but to other people it could be a fiendish, unpleasant ball of mucus
