Sean and I have been together over a year and we both have kids from our previous marriages. We both came from tough situations, but it has been a good journey. Out of the both of us, I took the longest to fall in love with him. I had been hurt by every semi-decent guy that ended up rotten. Took a lot of counseling too.

He gets along with my son and I get along well with his. They are nearly the same age…so it works out well that they can play together.

Something to worry about – hmm… probably old insecurities. Being cheated on by the last 2 long relationships had been a big factor, but I have been over that for months…lol.

My husband of almost 3 years reminds me almost daily of what a good choice I made.
I was widowed when my girls were 3 and 5. I met “now” husband a year later, dated for a year before my girls met him. Some, even my father, said he would never commit to me. 45 never-married, no children men aren’t falling over themselves to take in such responsibility, they said.
He is so brave! He’ll clean out the fridge,pick up something gross a cat coughs up or kicks out of a litter box.
Being the only dad to help at school uniform re-sales doesn’t bother him. Staying up late to meet the school bus after a field trip? He’s on it. Science projects, checking our miss 12 year old’s alegbra, check.
Taking the girls plus a couple of friends to a movie, the park, for ice cream…he may be more insane than kind;)
love him!

@Kat: I hope you saw my Tweet, in which I said “Thank you!!” That’s one glaring omission indeed. And it’s crucial that you ask your child if he/she is comfortable with Mom/Dad.

I agree with C and Kat.

My rule of thumb has always been: If they say it as a joke or later add “I didn’t mean it!” at some point, at least consider it a half truth. There is truth to everything that comes out of people’s mouths.

And I’m glad you’ve found yourself such a great guy!

This is kind of timely for me. Next week, CBG will be hanging out with my girls, alone, while I am at work for the day (they’re on March Break). It’s kind of a big deal, I think. My girls are very much looking forward to it. I think for him and I, it’s just another milestone in our relationship together. It’s definitely not something that we’ve rushed into, it has come on it’s own time and feels natural and good for everyone involved.

my manfriend, oops my fiance, just watched my son last Saturday. first of all, he’s absolutely wonderful and didn’t call me one time. he literally had my 3 year old from 7 a.m. – 5 p.m. my little one had a ball and i am so glad they had that time together. it really allowed them to bond and spend some quality time together. i don’t know if you ever feel comfortable with someone else watching your children. however, i can say that mother’s wit and intuition play a big role. sometimes it just feels right.

It had been just over a year when Jake moved to a different city than me…and my 3 kitties went with him, including a sweet diabetic Siamese lady named Hailey. That was a lot of trust, considering he had to give her an insulin shot twice a day on the days I wasn’t able to be there!
