Three parents better than two?1

Hi all, I am a 37 year old woman living in Austin, Texas. I grew up with my mother constantly telling me to not get pregnant until I’m 30 and sadly I didn’t give it any thought until then! I had a short marriage to a man that turned out to be an alcoholic and my best relationship to date was a casual sexual friendship with a gay man and we often thought about adding a third. This has given me the idea of co-parenting with a gay couple that wants to have kids and is open to creating a modern family structure where we can each lead our own lives and have the freedom to maintain our lifestyles while the kids get the benefit of 3 parents and extended family. I am 5’6 115lbs, extremely healthy, athletic and intelligent. I have a masters degree in psychology, I’ve traveled widely and have recently started a career in sales. My vision for this is teaming up with an established gay couple, looking for attractive, muscular and financially stable. I am health and wellness minded, I would want full control over the pregnancy, birth and early years where mothers contact is most important, welcome as much support and contact as the dads are willing to offer and slowly work up to 50/50 custody so we can each lead our lives, travel and enjoy ourselves as well as growing this family. My family live in New Zealand and I love my job and very much would need financial support with the child and well as hands on help, hence my preference for two dads, but also open to a single man who’s willing to provide the support, would love to hear form anyone interested or has any wisdom for me.
