Nerves Prevent Single Parents From Arranging Dates, According To MumsDateDads

London, UK (PRWEB) June 17, 2009

Single parents are more nervous than anyone else when it comes to asking members of the opposite sex out on a date, according to MumsDateDads, a new up beat and light hearted single parent dating site.

Single parents, like everyone else, are hesitant about approaching members of the opposite sex for various reasons but, MumsDateDads has revealed that a recurring factor, certainly for younger single parents, is the fear of what the other person may think about them having a child. As a result, many will avoid approaching them in the first instance.

For the older single parent, the nerves are more about a lack of practice in 'chatting up' potential dates. With the average divorce age for both males and females now being 43 and 41 respectfully, many will have been married, and relatively settled, for a number of years previously and the thought of starting over is literally terrifying.

However, MumsDateDads provides a friendly and easy to use platform where single parents can search, send messages and get to know other single parents in their own time - without the added worry of having to do it face-to-face.

Andy Hammonds, Founder of MumsDateDads, commented: "Having a child is of course a life changing occurrence and from that moment on, especially as a single parent, having the time to go out and meet new people is drastically reduced. Overtime, dating for parents becomes increasingly difficult as many will grow more and more nervous about approaching members of the opposite sex and inviting them out on a date until eventually, they avoid doing it altogether."

MumsDateDads has a very light hearted approach to single parent dating and allows single parents to get to know each other over the internet and in there own time, which immediately lowers the nerve levels when meeting new people.
