Spent over a week talking to someone I met through Hinge and wasn't till yesterday she asked about kids and said she wanted them in the future.

I have kids already and definitely don't want more, surely she should say in her profile that she won't see anyone that doesn't want to have kids in the future.

It's a shame because we were getting on really well and have spoken a lot and lots in common, just not the wanting kids part.

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon

Comedy answer... yes. All the women want your babbies cos you're so pretty

Short answer... no. And she should probably have mentioned it earlier.

I'm sorry PD. It sucks when that happens.

She probably worried that mentioning kids in her profile might put off guys that could potentially be talked in to it after getting to know her.

I don't do dating apps so I don't know what is normal prolife content, but doesn't it seem a bit heavy to be talking about having children right off the bat

Ahh sorry it didn’t work out OP.

I don’t think she shouldn’t have to put it on her profile, it can come across a bit forward to people she’s looking to date. She told you in good time if you’ve only been chatting a week. It’s better it’s out there now before you started getting invested/seeing each other.

I've been in this position a fair few times.

Hinge has the option to show how you feel about more kids doesn't it? I remember setting mine as don't want any. Though can also choose to hide it I guess.

Do you state on your profile you don't want any more children?

Thats the same as her saying she wants children on her profile.

Dating apps are hard work

I know match.com allows you to state if you have children and don't want any more

Its a fine line between putting everything in your profile and making it so long that no one reads it and making it readable with enough information to perk peoples interest.

It's against forum rules to discuss other websites OP.

I get that you might be asking a more general question but the point is that this is someone you're interacting with elsewhere, where expecations are different

At my age I don't think it's necessary to write I don't want them, I think if you do want them it's important to say before talking though if it's something set your mind on.

Sorry to hear about this, OP. Very frustrating and I’ve been there many times!

For what it’s worth, I’m on a dating app and I don’t want kids (I’m not asking you out haha).

I make a point now of saying in a nice manner that I am not interested in having kids. I find it prevents this kind of situation. Just a thought

If it's important to you and you expect people to make it clear to you that they do want children by the same token you should make it clear that you don't.

But the women are probably thinking you’d be clear on your profile if you were completely anti having kids in the future… I have Hinge and it has an option about kids. Mine says ‘open to children’.

No, they don't PD, you must know that.

It sounds a bit meh to find out when you're getting on so well. At the same time, it's good to find that out now before you're emotionally and mentally invested in someone.

Hopefully with it being clearer on your profile now you'll be able to enjoy future interactions without that little niggle in the back of your mind.

You should be more direct,

A week just talking on a phone is too long.

Ask them out quickly, they give excuses etc they are not that into you.

Meeting at least would of been better than talking on a phone.

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon


"Spent over a week talking to someone I met through Hinge and wasn't till yesterday she asked about kids and said she wanted them in the future.

I have kids already and definitely don't want more, surely she should say in her profile that she won't see anyone that doesn't want to have kids in the future.

It's a shame because we were getting on really well and have spoken a lot and lots in common, just not the wanting kids part. You should be more direct,

A week just talking on a phone is too long.

Ask them out quickly, they give excuses etc they are not that into you.

That could just be an excuse too.

Oh she was definitely into me until the not interested in having kids part, we were meant to meet already but rearranged for Thursday.

Singing my praises and saying I'd earnt a lot of brownie points for things I'd said. Pay attention to what a woman does not what she says.

What were you talking about for so long before finding that out too?

Only so much you can talk about on a phone, just say I'd rather tell you in person.

Bringing it up super early/putting it in a profile can put some guys off. You’ve only been chatting a week, it’s not really that long.

You’re disappointed as it was going well, but It’s not her fault you’ve had kids already and don’t want anymore. Maybe you should state that in your own profile?

I get asked this a lot when dating , I usually say I wouldn’t rule it out which is true, but it doesn’t have to be with you , but then I get ‘so you do want more kids then’ ? It’s like you can’t win with some people.

I suspect it’s often used as a way to rule someone out when you’ve changed your mind and don’t want to say that.

A future with someone would involve all the details.

A short fling requires a name and a place to meet up.

Op, thank her for going through all that with you, you liked each other enough to get to the finer details. It just didn’t work out perfectly.

Thank yourself for finding that out now instead of down the line when you’ve invested some of your heart.

Dating apps suck. We all have our deal breakers. And it's difficult to ask them without sounding like an interview.

That said, when you do find a miss match, then shake hands and walk away.

If this issue is wasting time... Then get a coffee in early doors. And know what yr boundaries are ... And where you may trip over others.

I'm presuming she was a fair bit younger than you OP? (I can't see many women your age wanting kids "in the future"). I'd suggest it needs to be clearly on your profile, as folk like us (those not wanting kids) are a minority, or so I keep getting told!

If I find someone attractive then yes I would still meet them but I'm capable of spending time with someone I like and not catching feelings if I know it's nothing more than fun.

I'm guessing she's not able to do that and doesn't want to get hurt, she had already told me that there would be no sex for 3 dates to make sure there was definitely a spark.

The plot thickens...

She told you there be no sex for 3 dates.

She definitely wasn't into you mate.

Change your approach to save you wasting time in the future.

You do realise not everyone opens their legs straight away? Do you only meet and talk to people that do?

There's zero wrong with my approach I can assure you of that Women who are into you don't set time constraints and verbally tell you that. It would happen naturally.

"I'm presuming she was a fair bit younger than you OP? (I can't see many women your age wanting kids "in the future"). I'd suggest it needs to be clearly on your profile, as folk like us (those not wanting kids) are a minority, or so I keep getting told!

Failing that, date your own age - menopause sorts the issue for you "

She's 34, not a massive difference really. I've changed my profile now anyway as obviously be a mature guy doesn't shout I don't want kids enough

Eh? Why would there be a hidden meaning behind ‘I’d like to have kids’ ?? You didn't answer the question? "

Of course, if it was PD and I chatting, I totally would. I’d love a piece of that ass

But I’m sure it’s abundantly clear that I’ve been in the fabs scene for long enough, and I can understand that some people are not at all open to casual/short term flings, that deviate from their long term plans, ie, having kids

What a narrow minded and utterly ridiculous statement.

If I’m meeting someone for normal dating and genuinely want a long term relationship with them, I avoid sex for the first couple/few dates.

It helps establish a bond beyond just physical coupling, trust, respect and shows I’m not just trying to shag and move on.

I suspect you are just trying to get a rise out of people this afternoon and I promised myself I wouldn’t take bait anymore.

We can’t all be dating dynamite, eh!

A few years ago, I dated someone really special. We were getting on just great and I was beginning to think about long term plans.

I’m the early days, she had been skating children to the extent I assumed she just didn’t want any. I never have so I thought - bingo baby!!

That’s when she dropped the bombshell she did want them. We had a heart wrenching separation.

Tough as it is, this didn’t go as badly as it could have. Rough to have got that far though, eh.

I miss out on great sounding women all the time because of that choice, but there is always someone else. This will sound condescending, but a (young!) guy like you will easily find another nice one.

I’ve also found there are lots of women these days focussing on career/travel/interests instead of having kids. Seems to be more common now.

While you were single etc

Her reason is her and me want different things, there's nothing to decipher about it.

If I find someone attractive then yes I would still meet them but I'm capable of spending time with someone I like and not catching feelings if I know it's nothing more than fun.

I'm guessing she's not able to do that and doesn't want to get hurt, she had already told me that there would be no sex for 3 dates to make sure there was definitely a spark.

The plot thickens...

She told you there be no sex for 3 dates.

She definitely wasn't into you mate.

Change your approach to save you wasting time in the future.

You do realise not everyone opens their legs straight away? Do you only meet and talk to people that do?

There's zero wrong with my approach I can assure you of that Women who are into you don't set time constraints and verbally tell you that. It would happen naturally.

Speaking as a man ! Great

"Spent over a week talking to someone I met through Hinge and wasn't till yesterday she asked about kids and said she wanted them in the future.

I have kids already and definitely don't want more, surely she should say in her profile that she won't see anyone that doesn't want to have kids in the future.

It's a shame because we were getting on really well and have spoken a lot and lots in common, just not the wanting kids part. "

Is Hinge an adoption agency ?

Did you think to put anything on your profile about already having children and don't want any more?

Or to mention it earlier in your conversation?

At my age I don't think it's necessary to write I don't want them, I think if you do want them it's important to say before talking though if it's something set your mind on. "

40 isn't too old for a man to have children.

Doesn’t quite work as easily as that. I once said to a lady “hey babe, let’s have one” - referring to some post shag choccies and she started talking about nappies and child care and prams and stuff.

I definitely don't want anymore, far too old for all that not I still get asked about it.

I guess it's different for men, they have the option to keep making babies well into their older years. I know a few who have had more, in new relationships, later on and regretted it.

In the REAL world - You know the world before everyone got weird on the internet ...... NO ONE spoke about children or even dated with the idea of eventually having children.

We just dated someone you liked for the fun the shits n giggles and eventually love and only THEN did you start thinking about settling down and children ..

I'd die a death if someone I barely knew had asked me how I felt about children in the future. What happened to living ?

Exactly, either biological clock was ticking way too fast or she was just wasn't that into him.

…but the world is full of those same people who couldn’t give two shits about their kids, as a result of that mindset, Granny. My Dad’s one!

"Ahh sorry it didn’t work out OP.

I don’t think she shouldn’t have to put it on her profile, it can come across a bit forward to people she’s looking to date. She told you in good time if you’ve only been chatting a week. It’s better it’s out there now before you started getting invested/seeing each other. "

Jamie is wise

Sorry it didn't go to plan.

The world has its fair share of shit parents but it's not as a result of dating someone and there is no correlation between planning for children and being good parents.

Granny has a point. Neither of us considered whether the other wanted children/more children when we started dating. I already had my son (I was 18). He had no children. I suppose at that age, we didn't necessarily "plan" or think it would be a forever relationship. Maybe fewer people talked about intentions to have children because people got into longer term relationships earlier? Or perhaps there was just a societal expectation that people got married and had kids and women in particular were expected to just get on with it.

Isn't it a filter on most apps now? I wouldn't know cos dating isn't for me. Not unless it includes swinging, which is just awkward to bring up on standard sites without being called names...
