I'm scared, he asked me if i can help him with the kids, we live an hour apart and that might consist of him moving to where i live or with me. He is a great man, 10 years younger than me though. Anyone been in this situation, any opinions are welcome. Reply to this Question Share |

I think your relationship is not solid enough for him to move in with you. It's great if you help him out from time to time but you really aren't solid enough for you to be stepping in for him on a regular basis. The other thing to consider is that kids this age form attachments to you and to your kids and your kids will form attachments to these kids. Best to make sure your relationship is on solid footing before the blended family begins.
What does he want from you, parenting or partnering?
