In this case, since the lady is divorced, this man would be acting like a father figure to the children. I don\'t really understand why the ex-husband would say \"I\'m not looking for a father figure\". That would suggest that the ex-husband wants a father figure for himself.
Edit I think I misread the context. Is the man saying \"I\'m not looking for a father figure\"? If so, it should probably say \"I\'m not looking to be a father figure\". That would mean that he doesn\'t want to be a father figure for the lady\'s children.
