Ahhhhh, one of life's greatest and most enjotable things.

And as previously stated, single mothers are a delicate thing and should not be messed with. If you're not seriously considering the possibility of a long-term relationship you should keep it on a friendly (not f$%&ing) level.

i'm surprised that no one mentioned this yet, but...

at least you know she puts out!

anyway, go for it, but don't take it too seriously...you're too young.

Get ready for holes to be poked in your rubbers. You sound like an "accident" waiting to happen.

You're a young kid and you're out of your league. Go out and have fun with your life. The last thing you need is the responsibility of a kid and family at your age -- especially when it isn't even yours.

A girl with a kid is an incredibly serious person, if you follow what I mean, who is put in a very serious, difficult position, no matter what you might think. She's not to be trifled with in any sense of the phrase.

She's also proved she can make just about the worst possible decisions, ones that could ruin her life, and has little impulse control. Not a good partner for you.

And keep this in mind: If you *cough cough* "accidentally" have a kid with her -- you'll be paying for both kids for the next 20 years.

That's way too much grief and responsibility for an 18 year who still has his whole life ahead of him to take on himself.

Believe it, there are other girls who will want you, who will be cool to you, who will bang your brains out. Don't give up your future just because you're horny or lonely or in puppy love.

*ding* we have a winner!

run far away. you say she is 'everything you can wish for' so you obviously will not listen to anyone's advice but everyone who says it is a big mistake is 100% right.

[jackdaniels]

This is great advice. I hope he listens to it.

We laugh about these things, but it's these decisions when you are 18 that can turn your life around for the next 20 years.

Getting laid: Easy!
Having a nice girl who you like and want to hang out with: Not so easy.
Having to take care of her kid and possibly another one of yours at the age of 18: VERY, VERY HARD.

Staying in this relationship is definetly -EV

many single mothers are looking for fathers, not mates

My experience is the exact opposite. The downside of dating moms is that you may end up missing the kids more than the mom when you break up.
