That is the first thing I look for in a guy. My bf now will be an amazing father. I see him around his little cousin and he gets this sparkle in his eye. He wants kids so bad and is awesome with kids. I have dated guys who just seemed awkward around little kids and I definitely want kids so that is a HUGE factor in determining who I date. I know what it was like to grow up with a cold, distant father (my bf knows the feeling as well) and neither of us want that for our kids. So sometimes it's good to have those issues because you never forget that feeling. Makes you easier to relate to and you never forget what that felt like. Y'know? Like when you feel that some adults just totally forget what it was like to be a teenager. I feel like, when you go through some of that neglect or abuse, you always remember how it would have felt to have a genuine person there to help you out. And now you can pass that along to your kids.
