He is also a fulltime single parent of a 14yr old daughter, and he picks his 9 year old boy (of another relationship) every weekend from out of state. It's been over a year. Most everything between him and I has only gotten better. The clencher is the 14yr old daughter...she is spoiled, ignorant, and probably typical for her age? ... He generally indulges her whims or ends up pissed because she manipulates and treats him crappy. The boy has an awful mother, the child is whiny, ultra sensative, and just really really loud...A.D.D.??? So....I wonder what I want out of this now...I saw a future but have gotten to know his kids, and couldn't live with them...I don't see happiness in there...I'm a full time student again after 15 years or Manufacturing work (company closed down) and I am very independent. OK, so he makes me happy and I love his kids but can't take more than a few days with them at a time...Should I stick with it...see where the future takes us,or let him go...I do love him, but I am getting to the wondering stage. My work in a few years most likely will take me to another state or province...and his business is here....Can anyone relate? Any suggestions?Thanks-to all who reply... Reply to this Question Share |

you have so much to do with an eight year old boy let the man be a friend and explain it to him.
Hang out it will give your son a father figure a little and give you some entertainment but focus on your kid he has hands full too.
