Here is another cool question from yahoo answers. Check it out and see if it resonates with you.
I recently starting dating a single father. He is a very nice man, and easy to get along with. The only problem I have is that he takes too long to contact me between dates. The norm is about three days between communications. He says that he doesn’t have a phone, so all our communications are through IM’s. I really like this guy, and I understand that being a single parent is very time consuming, but how long should I wait before he has time for me?
My quick answer to this question:
Are you happy with just being a “friend”? If not, move on… Coz it seems that’s all he wants. Guys are simple. They tend to find ways to contact you more often when they really want more than just casual friendship. Heck, he’d prolly get a phone just for the occasion. There’s always stuff to cutoff to make more time for you. He could cut off random internet surfing, checking his email 50 times a day… You get the point…

He’s a father and he doesn’t have a phone?? That doesn’t seem right to me. What if he had the child and there was an emergency? Something seems off there.
I think you’ll probably be able to find the answer to your dilemma at Lisa Daily’s site, http://www.datingexpert.tv (Plus, there’s a lot of good info there.) She’s the author of two dating books, HOW TO DATE LIKE A GROWN-UP and STOP GETTING DUMPED. It’s one of my favorite sites for dating tips and advice, and the videos are pretty funny.
I’m pretty sure she answers questions that are sent to her, you might try her for an answer to your question.
The kids will always come first bottom line. maybe if you continue seeing each other he will try harder to see you more but until then either wait for him to be ready or leave now before its too hard
move in wit him so u wont have to wait to see/talk to him
