In taking a hard and intentional look at your weekly schedule, there are areas you can cut back on or get rid of entirely to make room for dating, irrespective of having kids.

Also understand that dating when you have kids should not be approached as though you have no personality of your own.

One of the factors that makes it difficult for certain women to date successfully when they have kids is that they tend to only talk about their kids or kid related topics.

They have no real understanding or awareness that this is what they do.

Since their kids are such an integral part of their lives, they fill the air with discussions about school, PTA meetings, doctor appointments, music practice, sleep overs, etc.

Unfortunately, these women are boring their dates and making them feel like there is nothing more to them.

These women believe they are finding common ground with their date, as their date has kids as well.

So they blabber on about their kids.

Don’t do this.

Book A Dating Coach

Your date is there to learn about you as a person first and foremost.

Focus on letting them witness your personality and the rest follows in time.
