Can You Make My Dream Come True

I am an educated and professional African American Male in his late 30's who is looking for a co-parent or a surrogate to help me become a father. I will like to have at least two children with the same person. If it is a co-parent situation I would want to have joint legal and physical custody of the child. If it is a surrogate situation, I have no problem with the child knowing his or her mother. I have tried the traditional route, but have not found that suitable "lady" to marry and I want to become a father while I'm young enough to have the possibility of seeing any grandchildren my child/children might have.

I am very serious about becoming a father and I would like to discuss the situation with you as soon as possible. Race and sexuality is not an issue with me. I am a very open minded person and I hope you are also.

Currently on the west coast, but hope to relocate to the east coast real soon.

I can be contacted via email at livingjay@yahoo.com.

Thanks.

Seeking Known Donor in the Washington, DC, VA, MD, PA, NJ, NYC Area

Hello!

I am an attractive, educated and healthy heterosexual woman in her early 40s; I live in NW Washington, DC.

I am seeking a healthy sperm donor in the Washington, DC/ VA/ MD/PA/ NJ/NYC area who is interested in helping me in conceiving a baby. Due to my age, I have to do this as soon as possible. I am looking for a healthy, attractive, intelligent Caucasian male (gay or straight), hopefully in their 20s, 30s, or early 40s. Due to my age, the age of the father also makes a difference.

You would have no financial obligations, but I would like you to be a known donor, i.e. the child to be able to contact you and have a relationship with you. After having the baby, I might move away from the DC area, so I am looking for someone who would be ok with not seeing the child on a regular basis.

I live a healthy life-style and am looking for a similar donor; I am looking for someone in good health, with no family history of disease or addiction.

Please contact me at european_brunette@yahoo.com to start a conversation, to discuss the details and to exchange photos. I would also like to discuss STD, genetic tests you already have or need to take, and donor contract to be signed.

Thank you!

Please Help Me Become a Mother

I am 37, single, straight, don't smoke or drink and have a great support network of friends and family who are hoping as much as I am that my dream will come true.

I have been looking for a donor for some time. I had one, several years ago but he backed out when there were objections from his family about his decision. That experience was very difficult but I am back here trying again.

I do not take the decision to become a single parent lightly. At this stage in my life I do not expect that marriage and a "traditional" family are in my future and even should I meet my soul mate tomorrow, I do not want my biological urges influencing my judgment. I believe that having a child through a donor is not only a way to ensure a stable home for my child, but I also hope that it could bring joy to not only my life but the life of a donor and his family, who perhaps never thought children was a possibility.

I have spent the last couple of years building a strong infrastructure of support and a safe and comfortable home. I have a career that lets me work from home. I have a lovely farm house in Virginia that I share with my dog, cat and three horses. I have an endless stream of eager babysitters and surrogate aunts and uncles who can't wait to welcome my bundle of joy into the world.

Ideally, I am looking for someone in good health with no family history of disease or addiction. I prefer a gay gentleman but am by no means limiting my search based on sexual preference. I just think that if the donor is gay it reduces the risk of anyone becoming confused by the emotions of the situation. Most important of all, is finding someone with whom there is mutual trust and commitment to seeing this process through to the end.

I'm open to the level of donor involvement in the child's life, but I am not seeking to share custody. At minimum I am seeking in a donor is someone willing to share their family history, send and receive periodic photos and updates, and be willing to meet the child when the child is ready. I am definitely willing to discuss more involvement and come to an arrangement we are both happy with. My ideal situation would be one in which the donor was a part of my extended family.

Please write me at firegirlusa@yahoo.com if you are willing to help!

Thank you!

Single Straight Woman Looking to Co-Parent

I am a single, 37 year-old, straight professional female looking for a known donor, preferably a co-parent to father 2 children with me. I strongly believe children should have parents, and I do not want to raise them alone. I live in Washington, DC and enjoy my job as an IT Project Manager. Unfortunately, I have been unlucky in the romance department and never married. I do not feel this should preclude me from being a mother, nor should I make things difficult for a child by trying to do it alone or get pregnant by someone that would not be a suitable father.

This person would share responsibilities with me in raising our children. I am open to a wide variety of methods in accomplishing this. I don't like to refer to sharing responsibilities in percentages but you would be the children's father and would not share that responsibility with anyone. I look forward to comments on how you may envision this working. If you are interested in having additional discussions please contact me at Alicia__j@hotmail.com (my email address uses 2 underscores). I will gladly submit pictures and feel free to send me pictures as well.

P.S. I am very tall (6ft), so I am looking for a male possibly between (6ft-6ft 4in) but height is not the most important criteria.

Single GWM Seeking to be a Known Donor or Co-Parent

Hello,

I'm a mid-30s GWM, currently single, seeking to be a known donor or a Co-Parent, depending on the situation. I've been a known donor once before, helped a lesbian couple produce a beautiful little girl (admittedly my part was easy) and they now live abroad. We actually met through this site. I'm financially and emotionally stable, a physician, very active, and healthy. I'm also active duty military, which hasn't been great for my love life, but I enjoy what I do. Politically I'm an independent, but I am usually go with the libertarians. I'm 5'9", brown/hazel, medium build and fit and of mixed western and northern European heritage (i.e. I don't tan easily). Photos are available upon request. For the Co-Parenting option, I'm interested, but I would want to get to know someone very well first of course. Feel free to contact me at RJPinUSN@yahoo.com for more information.

Stable GM Couple (12 years) Interested in Donating Sperm with No Strings Attached; Just Love

Two GM (Jim and Luis) interested in donating sperm to a single lesbian or lesbian couple. We strongly believe that for this to work, we have to be clear upfront that we have no rights whatsoever - if you want us to have any relationship at all with your children, we would have to earn it, and it would be entirely at your discretion.

We are both lawyers (we thought we would put the scary stuff first). Jim is a a law professor and Luis is an immigration lawyer. Luis is Puerto Rican and Jim is Jewish from Seattle, almost an oxymoron.

Florida is the only state to prevent ANY gay person from adopting, so we thought it would be nice to be part of parenting in this manner, even if it is a relatively small part of the process.

The best e-mail to reach us is at: wiletsj@nsu.law.nova.edu.

Male Professional Seeks Best Friend and Marriage Mate for Co-Parenting

Friends describe me as "A great catch". I'm flattered. Actually, I'm just blessed. God has blessed me with life, wonderful experiences, talents, varied interests, health and strength. For many years I have desired a traditional marriage and family, but having a same-sex attraction prevents that from happening. Thus, I am looking for a lesbian, bisexual or straight female who is interested in co-parenting. I am African American, 6', 195 lbs, 40 years old. I enjoy, sports, movies, theatre, and traveling. I love kids and can't wait to have a few. I am a caring, masculine, Christian, advanced-degreed professional who would make a wonderful husband (best friend) and father. I am looking and praying for what I call a Marriage Mate and Best Friend to co-parent a couple of children and raise family.

Basically, I am looking for a person in a similar situation in that she is gay but she too wants a traditional Christian marriage and home life for her children. She is professional, goal-oriented, and beautiful inside and out (height and weight proportionate with a great smile), wants kids, and has varied interests. African American or Hispanic/Latino ladies are a plus. Whether you are a lesbian, bisexual, or straight but you see a unique potential in and arrangement like this, let’s get to know one another and see what happens. I am simply asking that we both step out on faith towards a chance at a great partnership and raising some beautiful kids.

If you are serious, please email me at grangerellis@yahoo.com and type "Best friend for Co-parenting" in the subject line so that I can be prompt in my response.
