Dating for Dads: The Single Father’s Guide to Dating Well Without Parenting Poorly

Here is the first book written specifically for men who date while answering to a higher authority: their children.

As a single father, you’re ready to begin dating again. But are your kids ready? In this much-needed guide, relationship expert Ellie Slott Fisher comes to the rescue with no-nonsense, no-judgments advice on everything from how to ask a woman out to navigating the potential minefield of overnight dates.

Single dads are as nervous as single moms about merging their parental responsibilities with their social lives, but they often don’t have intimate friendships in which to share their concerns. Drawing on her own experience as a single parent, interviews and surveys she conducted with more than a hundred single fathers and their children, and the advice of family therapist Dr. Paul Halpern, Fisher gives the lowdown on a range of tricky topics, including:

•When do I introduce my kids to the woman I’m dating?
•What if they don’t like her?
•Is it acceptable to date someone closer to my child’s age than my own?
•Are sleepovers okay when my kids—or her kids—are home?
•How do I give my children the reassurance they need while pursuing a social life of my own?

Plus, how to avoid one of the biggest dating pitfalls: mistaking lust for love. From dealing with your ex-spouse to protecting your children’s inheritance, and many issues in-between, Fisher gives single fathers the tools they need to be both sexy suitors and devoted dads.

The Thomas and Edward Single Dad’s Guide to Online Dating: Online Dating as a Sorting Game

Thomas Maxwell and Edward Copenhagen are just two regular guys who are at a similar place in life. We are single men who have gone through the experience and rude awakening of being thrown into the dating world after a long hiatus. Both of us found ourselves in the situation of being “on the market” for the first time since our early 20′s (nearly 20 years ago). Although there are differences in our respective goals and backgrounds, we share a number of similarities in terms of what we are looking for in our relationships with women. The paths we took to get here, however, are quite different. Edward is a divorced, 40 year old professional and a devoted father. Thomas is a 40 year old single dad, does independent consulting for a living, and lost his dear wife of nearly 18 years to cancer when she was only 39. We hope and believe that, together, we offer our readers a unique perspective on modern dating. Although we have some things in common and have been friends for years, we tend to have two different viewpoints on life. . .and certainly on the way we handle relationships. We offer advice from two different angles: the “Thomas” perspective and the “Edward” perspective. After reading both, you will then be able to judge for yourself which advice best suits your situation. . .your philosophy. . .your style. Our goal is simple, we want to introduce men in similar situations and with similar goals to the process of modern dating. . .and, yes, it truly is a process. We provide a concise, targeted look at the tools and techniques available to
