Is it bad not to date someone with kids?

I like kids, but I want to start a family with someone who doesn't have kids for lots of reasons. I pretty much lose interest completely when I find out he has kids. I notice that lots of men seem to seek out childless women even though they have kids. I don't understand this. They are often not even honest in their profile. They make it look like they're single and then after a few chats, they admit they have kids. Then it's awkward breaking things off.

There are pros and cons .. firstly dating has nothing to do with marriage.. but you seem to date for the purpose of marriage.

You can externally date a person first without getting too involved at first and assess the personality first. Most of the times it is we who are unsure of our want .. whether we want a laid-back and relaxed person or someone who is dynamic and vibrant. So until you befriend the person you won't know.
