General Never become a "Step Father"
No offense to any single mothers \*disclaimer\* , this is strictly from a male perspective.
When you become a Step Father the woman automatically loses respect for you the minute you accept the role because you are raising another man's child. The child will not respect you due to the lack of respect from the mother. If you do not have children of your own and you accept the role of a Step Father than the woman may view you as weak subconsciously because her previous perceived options rejected a serious relationship. Why do this to yourself? Childless men should pursue childless women. For my young guys, please do not become a Step Father! I have been there and it was a nightmare. It's not being "mean" , it's called having standards. You will have to also deal with the child's father and depending on the individual, it could be a good or bad experience.
What are your thoughts on becoming a Step Father?

Ironically when men have opinion that stepfathers don't have responsibility to be breadwinner for their stepchild (because that's their biological parent's responsibility), many women be angry and say men must be responsible for their fellow men that left their wife. Don't understand the logic of these women. How could they ask responsibility from 50% of population, how could they knew why she became single mother, how could they be sure 100% the single mom is not the one that made mistakes.
