I have been single for some time now. I am 25 and a father of one. I am having a hard time finding the right one. I have my daughter two days a week. I am still friends with her mom. It seems as if no woman wants a man with a child. So what is the deal?

You didn't say how long you've been single, to some people 3 mos could be a long time as opposed to someone who's been single for 3 years. Anyway, maybe the fact that you stated you're still friends with your daughter's mother might turn girls your age off. I don't see anything wrong with your profile and your daughter is a little sweetheart and I don't think having a child is the problem, actually I think it would bring out the maternal instinct in some women. How hard are you trying? Have you made contact with girls and are you missing any signs that they are interested? Are you setting your priorities too high? Without knowing you, its hard to answer but when the time comes and it will, just be ready.
Good Luck

i broke up with my daughters mom when she was 1. so it has been two years that we have been broke up. i broke up with my last g/f 3 months ago. we broke up cause she could not understand the fact that i has a daughter.

Consider yourself not being alone, there are several men in the same position as you. IMO as you get older and mature you become more tolerant of other people's flaws. One day you may even look back and wonder why you ever broke up with someone in the first place. There are the obvious reasons why anyone would break it off with someone, like "cheating", but was there a chance you and your daughter's mother could of worked it out? As for the last g/f, she knew what she was getting into when she met you,consider it her loss but don't let that hold you back....you will meet the right person, unless you become a hermit.
There's another thread on under Single Parents, "Kudos to Custodial Fathers" might be worth checking out.

Its not that your not looking hard enough...we are out here, just a few hundred miles away But isnt that how it always works out?!
If I was closer to ya, I'd definitly hit ya up...and by the way...my daughter is 3 as well (you know that) and sometimes I feel the same way you do. But I've realized that my child and anyone elses are just added bonuses to a relationship. they need 2 "parents" as well. Children are innocent and can love just like we can
so dont get down cause when ya least excpect it..she'll be rite under your nose?!
