| | | You should walk away, because she doesn't deserve someone who listens to other peoples' trash talk. | |

| | | Okay, you're right. I just think it sounded a little mean.
Okay- be careful with this. When someone's got a kid, you're taking on two people, even if you don't have a relationship with the kid, because what happens to her directly affects the kid. You have to be more emotionally responsible.
So ask yourself if you want to date her, how far involved are you willing to get, etc. before you make a move in her direction. You don't want to mess her life up.
Having a shady past doesn't necessarily mean she's got a shady future, right? | |

| | | Obviously she was young when she had this child, which means she didn't experience a traditional lifestyle, but people do grow up. Just because she was wild in her teens doesn't mean a thing now.
However, if you are around the same age as she is, I don't think you are old enough to be dating a momma.

| | | I wouldn't even consider it.
Unless she was the most amazing woman I've ever met (and I haven't even seen that woman yet), there's no way. It's mean, it's heartless, but there are better men than me out there--they can date her.

What you have done in your life you could consider as a "resume" and therefore people will judge who you are by your "resume". I am not saying people can't change but a lot of times a persons past may over power the better life they now live presently. This girl may have straighten up her act for all we know, but we don't know how much of her past is still with her or what.
Yes I know the past is the past, but the past also makes the person who they are as well. So it does matter and does mean something now. If I was this guy I would not date the girl just for the fact that the girl is a single mom. Call me what you want, but I do not want to become a dad right now. | |

| | | Jurupa, my dear, by the time you hit your mid-thirties, you won't even recognize the person you were in your teens. Oftentimes, aging and having children facilitates enormous personal growth.
