Hot Dad Summer? Dating.com Says Women Are Looking for Single Dads

Chattanooga, Tennessee—(Wise Brother)

It’s difficult to dive into the dating scene when you’re a single parent.  You have less freedom to spend nights out on the town . . . and you have to sell someone else on yourself AND a parenting-in-progress situation.

But that’s a PERK for some people.

A new survey from Dating.com shows that 60% of single women are open to dating single dads.

These women are less willing to put up with indecisiveness, uncertainty, and immaturity.  A single dad may be more likely to be stable, responsible, mature, and they’re less likely to “play games.”

Here are a few other stats from the survey:

75% of single people say that a “match” having a kid would have “little to no impact” on their interest in dating them.

95% said the match should be up-front about having a kid on the FIRST date . . . but they wouldn’t need to MEET the kid early on.  60% said it could happen for the first time after six months of dating.
