writes: Hi, I am a 38 yr old single female. I met someone few months back through an unbelivable situation, i did not ever think one could meet someone the way i met, anyways i have no complains and consider my self lucky. The person i met is someone i have always wanted to know and very close to my heart...as luck would have it he likes me too....now things are not that simple..it is a long distance relationship (which i do not see as a challenge though i miss him loads). The issue i have here is he is divorced with two young girls. I really do like the fact he is a responsible father and shares a good relationship (not a bitchy or a kniving) relationship with the mother of the children. My question- I know it tears him apart when he sees his girls leave him after spending the day with him for their own home....he misses them and feels low...i want to know from ppl who are in relationships with a divorced individual with children - how does one react or handle the situations. I am very secure in my relationship with him, because i am fond of him, i feel miserable when i hear he is low or is lonely....I live in India and he in US and well life in US can be really lonely...also he is more of an introvert and takes time to make friends where as I can speak to anything that moves or does not move:) and have a hectic packed life (i keep it that way to as i do not want to miss him much:))I have very high reagrds for this man and consider my self lucky to know him...but am also scared of things that may not work for us...I know i cannot comment on his relationship with his children - he will not like it and i will not, i also know and understand i will always be an outsider when the four of them are together - i have to accept it as i like the guy for who he is and i know he will protect me emotionally....however he is a self made man and pretty stubborn, it is his way or the high way and i do worry of things going ahead when his children or his ex may speak ill about me, even if i have not done it and he will believe them:)....I am asking how do i protect what i have and nurture it and make it more stronger...I know a looong question....any response will be of help
