When Men Say They Don’t Date Single Moms: Preference, Contempt, and Being a Package, Not Baggage


Listen Later

If you’ve ever heard a man say, “I don’t date single moms,” and felt that little sting in your chest, this episode will help you separate preference from contempt without making someone else’s belief mean something is wrong with you.

In this episode, Haelly talks about a viral conversation where a man admitted he was falling for a beautiful, educated, stable woman, but struggled with the fact that she was a single mother. She breaks down why preferences are allowed, why dehumanization is not, and how single mothers can stop treating cruel stereotypes like mirrors.

You’ll learn:

why a man’s preference does not have to become your wound
how to tell the difference between preference and contempt
why motherhood is not baggage
why someone else’s belief is optional, and so is yours
how judgment gives you information about someone’s worldview
why a healthy man does not need to compete with your child
how betrayal can make you tender to lies
why the sting is not always proof that something is true
why you do not need everyone to want you
how to remember that you are a package, not baggage
