And you should let it be known that your little one always goes along on the first few dates.  Its an all around good idea.  Because you will get to see right away what kind of potential a man has.  Is he good with your little one?  Is he fun?  Can he go with the flow?  Know that an acceptable man will bend to your needs and try to please you.  After all your little angel will help you weed out the pests from the goods.  I am sure you're well aware of the fact that most men still have the partial mentality of a boy.  So your suggestion of  a date at the local Zoo or Water Park should be well received and enjoyed.  You can even take your child to dinners and movies.

I have taken my daughter along on so many dates that she knows the difference between crab and lobster.  She is only three and a half years old!  Kids love going to the movies and don’t forget the arcade. Most guys like video games - Day concerts are a blast -  Look in the paper to find the happenings!  Make an effort to be one of a kind and fun!

Be who makes you happy.  But always be a lady who deserves respect.  Try not to swear and if your date curses in front of you say, “Don’t you swear in front of me!”  Guys love it!  I know its easy to use your child as an excuse not to work-out but guess what, most fitness centers have childcare on the premises.  And who goes to gyms?  Loads of available men.  Within an hour you could book your social calendar for a month. Let them know you have a child right off.  Dress sexy - act like a lady - and let the compliments roll in.

Try not to make life hard on yourself.  Never expect a man to read your mind and magically come up with dream scenarios.  Be upfront with what you want.  Do you want to eat lobster and drink French champagne?  Say something like “I’m really hungry.”  Smile and bat your eyelashes.  Then say, “I really want to see that movie - you know the one.”  If he dose not bite on that nibble then either he's dumb, cheap or both.  Either way there’s three billion more men on the planet, move on!
