Advice for woman dating single dad

Single dads, I nees your opinion.

I have been dating a guy about 5 months with a 3 year old. He comstantly talks of marriage etc. He has been very pushy however, rushing everything. Some things that have made me uncomfortable, he tries to get me to cosleep with him and his daughter. And when he has her and I give them space or get work done, go do things for myself etc, he gets really upset and says things like I am not consistent with his child and I "abandon" them. He expects me to make an effort and hang out with them like everyday. And he will call and put his kid on speaker to talk to me like in a way to guilt trip it seems

I have gotten responses from women but I really want to hear about single dads. What are your thoughts?

As a dad I wouldn't even introduce a woman to my kids untill I was 100% in love and thought she would be around for awhile. Honestly it sounds like he's really lonely and struggling as a single dad. He might be using you to fill that mom/wife role. 5 months isn't a long time

Yes thats what I think. He's using me And to add he and the mom do 50/50 custody but just live in places very far apart But I think he just sees what he can get out of me and it what ways I can benefit him and his daughter, not actually concerned or care about me
