Can a single mom still be loved by a completely single guy?

Hello there, my friend is a 24 year old single mom. I guess it will be hard for her to find a guy that will pursue a serious relationship with a woman with "extra baggage". Can a single mom still be loved by a completely single guy?

I hate it when men refer to a woman's kids as 'baggage.' Fortunately there are a lot of nice guys out there who don't think like that.

That's a harsh word to use indeed.

@5thHouse I hate that word too. But that is the word that comes from the man who leaves her hanging in this situation. Her past boyfriend leaves her just because he finds out that she is pregnant and the reason why he leaves out on the relationship. The stupid guy don't want an extra "baggage" on his life that's why he leaves her. Sometimes I want to take revenge for my friend and punch this guy on the face.

@grvdubey11 I belive so, sorry for the word. But that is the exact word that his past boyfriend said when he founds out that she is pregnant. That stupid guy telling his child as "baggage" makes me mad and makes me want to punch him on the face if I have a chance.

Your friend is still very young. If a man does love her, he will accept her completely, including some shortcomings and barriers. It just depends on how much the love is.

I hope there are still available man with that kind of thinking and beliefs. With our culture today its very hard for single mothers to find a real relationship even if they have a child already. Hopefully she finds one in the future.

I think it is still possible. I had a friend who fell in love with a single mom and they are still together and the daughter treat her stepdad like her real dad. Your friend should not lose hope although there are people she would meet who would have hesitations. That is understandable but I hope she will not lose faith since if it meant to be then it is meant to be.

Your friend is very lucky to have this man in her life, as well as the daughter. He is very lucky that your friends daughter treats him as her real dad. I pray too that my friend finds the right man for her. Its hard for her to trust again since she came from a failed relationship. I hope she overcomes it and became happy just like your friends fate.

Well normally when two people fall in love then tend to ignore these things.

I hope so. But sometimes when things get rough, there are times that the guy would reproach the girl. That is what my friend is afraid off. She also have some trust issues. Hopefully she finds man that would tend to ignore her past.

of course, if he loves her, it should be everything about her, and her kids too.

Hopefully, she would find the right man for her. Let fate have its way on her future. She's just scared because she has trust issues on relationships and she's afraid that no man could accept her. Her past boyfriend leave her just because he finds out that she is pregnant and the doesn't want to be involve about it. Sometimes I want to take revenge for my friend and punch him on the face because he has no "balls" on facing and accepting he has a big responsibility on my friend.

Yes, your right. Sometimes I tell her that don't be down just because your a single mom, life has lot to offer. I tell her to just focus on her daughter and if fate is good, destiny is the one who will find the right man for her at the right time.
