You were at the grocery and spotted this amazing woman. You ask her on a date and she politely declined and told you that you do not want to date her. Being your cocky self, you asked why not? And that's when she tells you that she already has kids. Because you don't want her to think that you are a jackass, you asked her out anyway. She accepts and leaves you with a smile. Now that the date and time are set, you are left with a dilemma. Dating could be hard and complicated but it gets even complicated when dating comes as a package. What I am referring to is dating someone who has kids.

So the questions you ask yourself are these, how exactly does dating someone who has kids go? Is it the same as dating with a woman who is single? What would you do on your date? Is there any dating advice out there for your situation? How do you properly date with women who already have kids? Luck might have been on your side today because you have found this article. I have listed some dating advice that you could use in special times such as this. Read on.

• DATING ADVICE 1: Make the decision. Before going through all of the drama, you must be certain that you really want to go through this. Ask yourself if you don't mind her having kids. Ask yourself if you could go on with this and determine your motives for wanting to date this woman before embarking on this new experience. What do you want to benefit from this experience? As I have said earlier, dating someone who has kids could be such a mess so you better be ready right? It is better to be sure about this before going any further. When you are certain about this, then good for you. Now you could proceed to the next advice.
• DATING ADVICE 2: Do not rush. You already know that you are dating someone who has kids and it is really not a big deal to you. Though this may be the case, you could not be selfish this time. You have to consider the feelings of others. Word to the wise, do not rush into meeting the kids but do not try and avoid the meeting either. You must not rush on meeting the kids because you have to focus first on building a stable relationship with the woman you are dating. And besides, if you meet the kids and get close to them and then you suddenly found out that you really do not like the woman, the heart of the kids would be shattered to pieces. You get what I am saying? You also should not avoid meeting them because that might give her the wrong impression. She might think that you are not interested with the welfare of the kids and that could be the start of a big problem.
• DATING ADVICE 3: Rapport. When you have finally met the kids, you have to establish rapport with them. You cannot expect them to like you right away. Some kids may see you as threat to the attention that their mother has for them. They might even seem angry with you because you are dating their mom. Be sensitive to what they feel and exert effort in knowing them. You should give as much time in knowing them as you do with their mother. Another thing is that when you are close to the kids, you could use this to your advantage. You just have to know when and how to use it.
