There were a couple questions posed by those respondants so I want to clarify and see if that helps. First, for those that didnt see yesterdays question : My boyfriend of 2 years keeps sending an old girlfriend and her 2 daughters large amounts of money and extravagent gifts. He says he loves the girls as if they were his own. I have told him since the beginning that I disagree with this and it finally got to the point where I said I would not continue in the relationship anymore. He and I had been getting serious, looking at houses together. He told me it was none of my business and sent them money. Now he seems suprised that I am upset and that I say that marriage, homes and children are off the table. Now the clarification : the woman and her children live 3000 miles away. He has known them for 8 years, but has actually only seen them in person a few times. He has never lived with them and dated their Mom long before they were even born. He is not a wealthy man, so no, he doesnt really have the means to be sending them what he does. But he likes that they THINK he is wealthy and he feels like a hero.

oh dear how very sad that your man has to keep up this pretence.sounds like he must be filling some sad space in his heart.does he really believe you should accept this set up?do you really think its worth losing him over this?perhaps hes not telling you the truth and maybe he treated her badly??even so its a very distant thing to be keeping alive with these presents ?all sounds a bit mysterious the more i think about it.maybe you could contact them and do a bit more investigation and find out WHO they REALLY are???
