A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

hello, i met a man online a few months ago, we spoke around twice a week mainly just silly talk but it was very enjoyable and funny, recently we have been out on two dates, when im with him we have a nice time, the conversation is good and he is a gentleman always.

on the second date he told me that he take tablets for depression, tablets for (recovering alcoholic), and tablets which are (phychotics or anti phychotics?) not sure which but it was one or the other he said.

he some with him and took his dose of whatever was needed at the time, it was becsuse i asked what they were for that he told me.

I do enjoy his company, and both times we have been out he has not drank any alcohol, even though i had wine, and he has seemed to enjoy himself.

he texts me regularly and calls occasionally, always he sounds jolly and is respectful.

i know nothing about how people are whilst they are going through depression and on medication, also how it is for a recovering alcoholic, but i have spoke with a close friend and she is of the idea that i should steer clear of this man.

as i like him i thought that i would ask people here whether they had any advice for me on what to expect, would it be wise to continue, or give this man the same fair chance i would give to someone without his issues.

I have two small children, which i have no plans to introduce to him at any time soon, but i do have to consider them before anyone else.

is there anyone out there who has experience of knowing someone in the same position as my 'friend'?
