Why would a guy keep off the "want children " section on his dating profile? I'm on hinge, 35...

There can be alot of different factors here.

First off many guys with online profiles leave them incomplete and barely get beyond ASL. Probably alot of guys here with profiles half finished too.

Second you have people like myself who would love to be a parent but understand for many in or generation it is not feasible and some see examples of people struggling who did anyway with the means to support a family.

Also I am in an age bracket where having a kid with someone my own age starts to get into potential health risk territory.

And as others have mentioned for some guys that is a private conversation in a serious relationship, not something to broadcast to random people online.

I wouldnt worry about it too much. Children are a huge thing to we guys, and some just arent ready or really dont want them at that time. Some point they might, but not always.

I dont do the dating sites, but I also dont advertise my thoughts on having kids on docial media. When I habe a connection with a woman, after a time its bound to come up, after she and I know each other amd have spent time together if Im serious with her.

Hopefully this helps. Its winded, I know, but just give them time and enjoy being with them.

I'm surprised you found someone that has a profile most on here usually are anonymous 🤔 but there are so many nice guys that want children in their lives... It takes time to find good person to fall in love with....

I think it's the fear factor of having a first child and not fully ly prepared and lack of confidence but that changes if you deal with in person dating because I think it's more realistic than online dating good luck

as charged in his twenties for child...

What does that mean?

But, if they did not indicate they want kids, it's for a reason, and primarily it's because they don't want to be responsible for raising someone else's kids and puts them in a very awkward position: they kids have a father and yet the partner is going to be held responsible for whatever goes wrong.

well, I'm almost 75, never had kids, maybe to old, anyways, would you like to at least give it a try??? (maybe a joke, never know)

Many people don’t want kids, not a big deal. Kids are a big responsibility and very expensive lol.

What is the issue you're getting at??? Was he charged with pedophilia or something??? Was he ever convicted of a crime???

Simply being charged of pedophillia isn't really that big a deal, it means that they found something that warranted further investigation at the time. He is still innocent until such a time that he has been through court and been found guilty by the jury.
