If a man says to you he has no social life because he has kids, does it sound like he's saying he's single or complaining about his relationship?

I don't know if hes with anyone but for him to say he has no social life since he has kids who are under 10yrs old. Does that sound like he's saying he's single and can't date? Or he isn't having fun with his partner because of kids. I know it could be either but which sounds more likely to you? Hearing your opinions would be helpful. Thanks!

It's just an excuse, plenty of people with kids have a social life, if he has kids and wants to date, then he can afford a sitter. If he has a sitter he has the time for a social life. Coming from a man, ill tell you this is precedence for paperclipping, where over and over he will get close to you and then push you away with no consideration for you're feelings until you go insane.
