How to Date a Divorced Man With a 7-Year-Old Daughter
- 1). Recognize that his daughter is going to be the most important thing to him. You need to be understanding. Age 7 is a time when a child needs to be around her father a lot, so you may have to sacrifice some time that you'd like to be with him.
- 2). Be flexible in the time you spend with him. He might change his schedule at the last-minute, so you need to be patient. It could happen often with a 7-year-old because she is very attached to her parents at that age.
- 3). Respect that you might spend some time with his child on dates. His ex-wife might run out last second and he will be left to take care of his child.
- 4). Be prepared to split the bills. He is supporting a child and he might have paid a significant sum in child suport. Being able to affording to go out on dates every week, while supporting a 7-year-old, can be a challenge.
- 5). Hold off on meeting the child. If he isn't sure that the relationship will work out, he doesn't want to expose his child to a new person who might leave. Young children will possibly be anticipating a new mother, or at the very least they can get attached to dad's new friend
