A proper date
An evening with a grown woman who came because she wanted to, dressed for it, and is looking at you and not at her phone. The kind of date you remember on the drive home.

Photos stay blurred until you join
Easy Mums is the UK dating site for meeting single mums who want fun without the fuss. She has a full life and a clear idea of what she wants from you, and she would rather say so than hint.
That is what the name means. Meeting is the easy part here. There is nothing hard about it until there is supposed to be: no games, no three weeks of small talk, and nobody pretending to want something they do not. Some members are after a proper date. Some want one man they can ring when the mood takes them. Plenty are single mums looking for sex, not a relationship, and they are refreshingly plain about it.
You say what you are after, she says what she is after, and if the two match you will know by the second message. If you would rather start close to home, begin with the single mums near you. If you have never dated a mum before and want to know what you are walking into, read what dating a single mum is really like first. And if you already know exactly what your type is, you can go straight ahead and meet a MILF.
Ask a man who has been on a few dates with single mums what the difference is, and he will usually say the same thing: she turned up, she was on time, and she meant what she said. That sounds like very little until you have spent a year on the ordinary apps.
A single mum does not have evenings to waste. When she gives you one, it is because she looked at her week, looked at you, and decided you were worth it. Being chosen that deliberately is rather good for a man. It also means the evening tends to go somewhere, because she did not put on the good underwear to make polite conversation about your commute.
None of this makes her hard work. It makes her the opposite. Dating single mums is simpler than dating almost anyone else, because the guessing has been taken out of it. She has her hands full all week. On her evening off she would much rather they were full of you.
Nobody has to pick one and stick to it. Most people arrive wanting one of these and stay for another.
An evening with a grown woman who came because she wanted to, dressed for it, and is looking at you and not at her phone. The kind of date you remember on the drive home.
The same person, the same night each week, and a standing arrangement that suits two busy diaries better than a relationship would. Familiar hands are underrated.
She knows what she likes and has no time to be coy about it. You both know how the evening ends before it starts, which does wonders for the nerves.
Confident, experienced and entirely aware of the effect she has on a room. If that is your type, you will not have to look far.
It usually starts with a message that is slightly bolder than it needed to be. She replies faster than you expected, and with better jokes. By the next evening the photos have become less shy, and the conversation has quietly stopped pretending to be about anything else.
Then she tells you which night she has kept clear. Read that sentence again, because it matters. A woman who has cleared an evening has already decided how she would like to spend it. She has thought about what to wear and, more to the point, what to wear underneath it.
You arrive when you said you would. She opens the door looking like she has made an effort and is trying to seem as if she has not. There is a minute of slightly formal chat in the hallway while you both pretend there is some doubt about what happens next. There is no doubt. She puts a hand flat on your chest to make a point, forgets the point, and leaves the hand where it is.
Upstairs the lamp is already on, which tells you she decided how this would go some hours ago. She is in no hurry, and she does not expect you to be. There is a zip at the back of the dress. She turns round, lifts her hair out of the way, and waits for you to deal with it.
What follows is nobody's business but yours. What we will say is that a woman who gets one clear evening a week does not waste a minute of it being shy. She knows what she likes, she will show you, and she is not quiet about it when you get it right. You will drive home some hours later with the windows down and the radio up, grinning like a man who has got away with something.
And then, at about seven the next morning, your phone will buzz. "Same again next week?"
Everyone arrives with a picture in his head. You are allowed one. These are the five we hear about most, and none of them is far-fetched.
Which of these you find depends on who you meet and what you ask for. But they all start the same way, with a profile and a message, and they are all a good deal closer than they look from where you are sitting.
A profile, a search and a private inbox. That is all you need, and all of it works in your phone's browser. Start with the profile. One recent photo and two honest lines will do more for you than an essay: who you are, and what you are hoping to find. The members who do well on Easy Mums dating are the ones who are plain about it.
Then search by distance. Set how far you are happy to travel and you will see the women you could actually meet, not a list of faces at the other end of the country. Narrow it further by age if you like.
When someone catches your eye, send a private message. Keep it short, mention something from her profile, and say what you are after. You can keep some of your photos private and share them only with the people you choose, and so can she, which is half the fun of the first few days.
If anyone oversteps, block and report them in two taps and carry on with your evening.
This part is for you. Easy Mums is built around your terms. You decide who gets a reply, who sees your private photos and how far any of it goes. Nobody here expects you to explain your life, and nobody expects you to apologise for wanting some fun in it.
Say what you are looking for in your first two lines, whether that is a decent man to date, a regular arrangement or one very good evening. The men who read this page have been told, in plain words, that you choose and they turn up on time. Hold them to it.
You can search by distance as well, so you only see men you could meet without crossing three counties. And if a message is not for you, you do not owe anyone an answer.
The women are single mums from every sort of background. Some have been on their own for years. Some are newly single and curious about what they have been missing. What they share is a shortage of spare time and no wish to spend it on men who are vague.
Many are in their thirties and forties. Some have not dated for a long while and are enjoying being looked at again. Some know precisely what they want and could tell you in a sentence. A fair few are simply after a bit of fun with someone who will not make it complicated.
The men are a mixed lot too, and the ones who do well are easy to describe. They are polite, they are specific, and they understand that a woman with one clear evening a week is doing them a favour by offering it. Age matters less than manners. So does height, whatever you have been told.
Nobody on the site is there by accident. That is the difference between Easy Mums and a general app, and it is why conversations here tend to get to the point.
There are plenty of places to meet single mums online, and most of them fall into one of two camps. The first is the big general app, where a mum is one face among millions and has to wade through a great many messages from men who have not read her profile. The second is the sort of site that talks about women as if they were stock. Neither is much use to you.
A good single mums dating site, or any dating site for single mums worth joining, gets a few plain things right. As a UK mums dating site, Easy Mums is built around them.
If you are here to date single mums, or simply to find single mums who want what you want, those four things are what to judge any site by. Single mums dating, UK-wide, on those terms, is what Easy Mums is for.
