Hi Single Fathers! Just a few short years, I found myself being a single father and I also found that there wasn’t much help out there for us single fathers. I decided to do something about this. I have noticed that there are a few sites around, but they only have a certain amount of content that really doesn’t seem to really help. Upon researching some more, I also found that there wasn’t a place for us to share with each other and help each other. I found that we didn’t have a community for US!. My objective and goal is to create a community for single fathers! Although this has been a very difficult task, I have come along way since I started this site. There is a lot to learn and a lot to do in order to make this site a real community site where we can share our information, tips, help, advice and anything else we would like. There are a lot of women sites that seem to pull together single mothers out there. I believe, we single fathers, would like to have the same kind of a website just for us. Go to my website and get some help you need, share your stories, share your tips and advice. Get involved and help build this important site for all of us single fathers. I have also scoured the internet to provide some great books for single fathers. I have also researched and found great deals on products that are for single fathers and our kids. Some products are for just us, we do need to pamper ourselves from time to time. Some products are things that we would normally buy, so I found some great deals that will help in savings. Because of today’s economy, I am finding ways for us to save money! I am also finding work at home opportunities for us too. We could all use some extra income or even a chance to work from home and save a lot of money by doing so. I look forward to seeing your comments, suggestions, stories, tips, ideas, advice and anything else you can think of! Just send me an email and lets get our community going!!! bob@singlefatherhelp.com! Thanks – Bob

OK, I finally published my web site. It is only about 1/3 done. But, I have some pages and a little bit of content. I am mainly interested in having single fathers emailing me with all kinds of things. I am trying to create a really cool site where single fathers can gather and share, as well as a place where we can vent or talk to each other. It is my dream to help as many single fathers as I can. I was and still am, very upset with the way society treats us. I am so tired of hearing big companies talk about single mothers all the time and not one word about single fathers. I am would like to change that perception. I am hoping to start or continue a movement. So, anyone out there that would like to contribute info, wisdom, tips, advice, etc. Please go http://www.singlefatherhelp.com and send me your stuff!! Lets create a community together!!
I was a single father too until I got caught than I had to pay and pay and pay.
OK, I finally added more content to the site. I added some articles, I still have a lot of articles to go. I added advertisements too. The ads are ads that we can actually use and I spent a lot of time picking out ones that are relevant. I am also spending a lot of time making sure the articles are good ones too. I am trying to create an awesome community for all of us. Don’t forget, I really need all of your help and your articles, tips, etc. etc. etc….. Thanks! Bob
Well, this has been an interesting week! I have had the flu and haven’t been able to do as much as I wanted. Thanks to those of you that sent me an email with some suggestions. It is appreciated! I still have a long way to go with this site, but that is ok. This will be an ongoing process and an ever changing one too. I really hope to have a lot of content and a lot of help for all of us. I am so tired of sites not having relevant info and basic stuff, nothing really that helpful. My goal is to make this site as helpful as I can. So, thanks for the input and keep them coming!! – Bob
Hi everyone! I have been developing singlefatherhelp.com and realized that the site isn’t coming up correctly for certain web applications. I have decided to revamp my site so everyone can get to it without any problems. Unfortunately, this process is taking me more time than expected. I will post again once I have completed the new look and feel!! I am very excited about this, the site will look incredible!! Thanks – Bob
Hi all! Just a quick update – The revamp of the site is taking longer than expected. I would rather take a little longer to make it look right and function correctly. The new projection of having the newer web site up and running is sometime next week. Wish me luck!! Thanks – Bob
Hi all! Just a quick update…. I have had some difficulty in getting the new site up and running. It will take me a little longer to accomplish, but, when it is done, it will look and feel awesome!! I appreciate the patience. I will keep everyone posted. – Bob
I have a few thoughts about your site that might help. Email me so we can talk. I tried going to your chat room but it’s always empty. Also, if you have Yahoo Messenger, that might help too, as I can help quite a bit with ideas.

Hello everyone! I just finished my new design for the web site. The new design fixes the problems that many browsers were having the problem displaying. I still have so much to do, a lot of the pages aren’t there yet. I have to redo a lot of them and create more of them. Hang in there and I will have this site looking great and chocked full of information and a lot of help. Also, if anyone has any ideas, tips, suggestions, stories, etc. that you would like to share, please email me so that I can put it on the site!! Hope you all enjoy – Bob
Hi everyone! Just an update. I know that nothing much has happened with the web site or anything else for awhile now. I have had to put the web site on hold for a bit in order to make some money over the last couple of months. I apologize for this, but making a chunk of money so that I can concentrate full time on the site later is the smartest thing for me to do! I will be working on the site at the end of August full time! I have a lot of ideas and plans to implement. I am really hoping to get a lot of content and help available to everyone as soon as I can. I do need your help in telling me your ideas, suggestions, stories, tips, what you would like to see, any links to places that can offer help, etc. I need you to help me to help you and all other single fathers out there!!! Thanks – Bob
Hi all, I’m a single father, have raised my son by myself since he was 3 months old. He’s 4 now, but the problem is I have maybe been out on two dates in the last four years. I’m a decent looking guy with a good job but have forgotten how to get out and meet women. There for a while it was easier just not to worry about it and focus on my son, but with him starting school next year and my demanding work schedule I’m starting to think about how nice it would be to meet someone. Anyone else in a similar situation? Thanks, Bill
Hi Bill! That is wonderful to hear that you are a very dedicated father. I too am in the same situation. I am sure there are many of us that are in this situation as well. I have been raising my daughter for 4 years as well. I have had a couple of girl friends that didn’t last very long over the years, a couple of dates that didn’t go that well either. The biggest drawback of dating when we have young kids is that our kids don’t understand what dating is. They think they will have an instant mom and then they get disappointed when they don’t get one. I learned the hard way! One major advice I can give is to date someone for awhile before introducing your children to someone. Getting out and dating again is very difficult as well. I also have forgotten how to date again. It is almost easier to just not date and concentrate on our kids, I agree with you there. But, I also would like to meet someone and have a happy home. I have learned to just be myself, go out and socialize and to not expect anything, but to just have fun. If I am searching for someone, I end up with the wrong women. I also learned that going to a bar room is not the best place to find dates either. It is easier to take your child out to the library, the park, community events, etc. are places where you will find someone. Not to mention, you get to spend some quality time with your child, have fun and you might actually find someone with common interests too. I have started to do more of this and I am starting to meet new people. I moved to a small town in NC awhile ago and I don’t really know anyone here. Since I have been going out in the community, I have met a lot of really great people. I am gun shy as far as dating goes, but I am finding a couple of possibilites! It is a casual way of meeting people and the first dating part becomes a lot easier. You have already met, talked and seen each other in your natural way! I hope this helps you a little bit and I hope it gives all of us some insight as well! Anyone else have any comments, ideas or suggestions about dating as a single father? Thanks – Bob
