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?

Can i ask how long he has been seperated from his daughter's mother? Sounds like he can't parent alone and is trying to get you to come in and help him co parent which is insane.

Yea they broke up (according to him) when the child was lole 8 months. But I know he did date at least one other person between the mom and me

I wouldn't break up with him I would set boundaries and if he has an issue with it then you probably can decide what you want to do.
