I encourage you to be patient with yourself as you work through this. The only thing I really want to add is that you can get through this. You never deserve to be put down, hit, lied to, or made to feel less than in the relationship.

She expresses her dissatisfaction with boys her age as they are terribly immature, and has had more at least two relationships with men roughly older than her, 23 and 30. As the expert in your situation, you know what will work best for you. I had absentee father issues, as do many women in our culture, and looked to an older man as protector and wise influence. If they were good, she was happy, going to class, doing good.

“How Do I Help My Child?”

I got her a dozen roses and a box of her favorite chocolates. The kids might feel like they are being disloyal to their mother if they are kind to the girlfriend. They might have hope that the parents are getting back together and that this is the woman standing in the way of that. They might really like the woman, but are just shy. They might just want to be with their dad. Here are a few tips on dating a guy with kids. They are NOT your kids. They have a mom. What you are to them is a friend, a mentor, and another adult that they can lean on for support in life. You might want to tell them you realize that they have a mom and you respect that. You are simply there as their friend, as a mentor, and as just another person who they can lean on in life if and when they need help and support. Be kind to the kids no matter what. Even if you sense some attitude from them. Just be a nice person. Remember that you are the adult and they are just children. Have confidence in yourself. In time, just like my friend did, they will come around. Understand when your boyfriend wants to spend time with his kids without you. Let him have space and enjoy his kids. If you do that, when he IS with you, he will love you so much more. Either way is tough. I was really lucky my step-father was SO great at playing that role in my life. None of this really bother me. I figured in time things would get better. But then something happened 2 nights ago. I have a terrible cough. My boyfriend was making me homemade cough syrup and it contained Schnapps. We, my BF and I, decided if I took a swig off the Schnapps every hour or so it would help my cough and it did. So I took a few sips before bed I absolutely hate the taste of beer, wine and any liquor before I took my ambien and fell asleep. Well, I did some sleep walking and mumbling walking around the house. Both is kids saw this. Now my boyfriend is saying it traumatized the kids. So, that makes me angry with him. Law School Oh, the night all this happened with me my BF was drinking and getting buzzed. But that seems to be okay because his kids accept his drinking????? Im pregnant and I also have three boys 7 6 4. My bf lives with me in my house, he gets his kids evety Saturday, they arerude to me, rude to my kids, they dont listen and there dad usually sides with them. Worst of all because of this I have a hard time even wanting them here. Im not sure what to do, me and him have a baby who should be here in the next month, itsnot fair to her not to have her dad around because hrr siblings dont like me. It is not her fault. It is between her boyfriend and his ex wife. The 3 younger ADULTS live with us. I am waiting for the 22 year old to be told to leave. The 2 younger adults go to school part time. No one but me does the cooking, the cleaning, the shopping. I used to set the table, prepare dinner, sit down to eat. By the time I sat down one of them would be finished and would be leaving before I eventook my first bite. Sometimes I don even bother cooking. I prepare food for myself and my boyfriend. I think your decision is a good one, and by taking care of all the house responsibilities it could hinder their taking on natural adult responsibilities. Good on you for setting boundaries on your time and energy. I feel this is so important too! Yes, I do expect HIM to talk to his kids and tell them they are crossing boundaries and making ME uncomfortable in MY own home! They as you stated are NOT my kids, so that is not MY talk to have, it is HIS responsibility! THAT IS NONE OF HER BUSINESS!! She is out on her own and needs to stay out of our business. She is daddies little princess and it shows!! Then his 16 yr old son is a little Prince, or so he thinks, he thinks he runs the house and our lives also. Makes me so angry!! He shows up at dinner time with his friends I DID NOT KNOW WERE COMING.. We got him every other week. His father said nothing to him of how rude and disrespectful that was to me. SO WHAT WORTH IT TO ME!! This kid is a royal pain in my arse!! I want him to go away!! NO BLOOD should definitely NOT come before me!! I am in a very difficult situation. I love my fiancee so much and when it is just him and I we have a great understanding. His children are 35, 30 and 19. We moved into his marital home and the house that he raised his children before seperating from his ex. So his youngest was 6-7 when he left the home. Now divorced, we have taken over the house with eldest daughter at 30 still living there and youngest visiting regularly. I got along with them well before we moved in, but after we relocated to the marital home, everything changed. I had 12 months of difficult situations, basically it is not my home, I am not their mother and dad and I receive little respect. Both girls have not spoken to me for 7 months out of 12, and they will not allow me to talk to them about the situation. My fiancee supported them most of the time, over basic things. Like can you bring your washing down so I can do it. But that would end with them yelling at their father, telling him that I have no right to ask them to do things. My fiancee labelled me a trouble maker many times throughout the last 12 months. After 12 months of passive agression and isolation, and blame, yesterday I followed the girls upstairs they were collecting some clothes and I let it all out. I was histerical, shaking and crying, and just screaming. I think I had a mental breakdown. His kids refuse to be part of his life now, when I am involved. My fiancee and I are getting married in 6 weeks, they all refuse to come to the wedding and now I fear that our married life will be scared from this experience. If you are reading this could you please give me some advice. I love my fiancee, but I think us getting married might hurt him in the long term. We have been together for almost 3 years and my bf if afraid to ask me to marry him because he said that his kids are not ready. I pray that it will get better but it seems as though from all accounts it could be worse. I also have children, but I believe they are better if I treat them accordingly. However, his daughter who is much younger middle-school age is having a difficult time with her father dating. I am trying to be patient and trusting that God will work things out. Blended families can be very challenging. When my bf kids come out I have to disapear. I told him if he sees a future with me, I have to be included in some way. His daughter is 17 and his son is 15. They live a few hours away and come out friday through Sunday. His daughter is ok with me. But the son hates me and has told everyone. They are rude to his family. The kids are not in the house Wednesday and Thursday every week and from Wednesday through Sunday every other week. On top of that, my boyfriend suffers from anxiety and seeing the kids that way makes him more vulnerable. Just like other people expressed his daughter is daddies keeper and his son manipulates him in every aspect. I found out his ex-girlfriend had the same issue with these kids but they were probably worst with them. This situation in not going to changed anytime soon until they leave the house which is not happening any time soon. How long a person can tolerate this situation? Just last week, his 18 year old daughter was bothered that I kissed him on the cheek while there mother was in the same room. If they want to be a part of mine, they are always welcome but I will no longer push myself into theirs. He needs to realize, his kids are punishing him, not me. So, as you have done, make the decision to not care about them. They will be living their own lives soon and it will just be you and your boyfriend. But guys are so passive in that way and they are all so uncomfortable with their ex wives. But I bet your guy is a great guy who really loves you. He has been divorced for 5 years and has a teenaged son 14. He is a nice kid, but a shy one, I guess other kids would call him nerdy or anti-social. We do have mutual friends who say they are worried about him because he is so shy. Plus, a few months before me. So, I admit that I go out of my way to show him that perhaps unlike the other woman, I get it and that I will make every effort. Although its difficult at times because I feel like the odd man out, especially when we go to outings or trips together. We have gone on two family vacations together I have no kids where the son was with us. I tried to engage occasionally, but its obvious he wanted no part of the trip or me. I am being patient, however but its difficult. I think that my boyfriend sees this and does things to reassure the kid that he is the priority. He is a smart kid, and is very polite and I commend my bf and his ex wife for co parenting well. But, I know how important it is for a parent to have time with his child because sooner or later they grow up and all the parent has left is memories, my bf is doing his best to fill this kid with great memories and for that, although I feel left out at times I put my adult pride aside and try to understand. But, the kids sees that and like most kids I think manipulates the situation a bit. At times, my boyfriend and I will be talking and he will butt in. Mainly to discount what I have said. Its never in a disrespectful manner but I get a sense that in his mind its an US against HER situation. But, again, being the adult I just smile and try to make it a discussion. I am super nice to the boy, but hell I am super nice to every kid that I am around. I am super nice to my nieces and nephews, friends kids. But, not over the top. At least for now I am. Most of the guys I dated in the past had small children. But, again, I am the adult and I am just being patient because I have dealt with teens for years and when they reach a certain age, they start to appreciate their parents and understand what companionship means. He is spoiled, and my bf gives him everything he desires. I am glad for this article because it just reaffirms to me that I need to be the adult and if the kid ever steps out of line, I will correct him. But, despite his teenage angst, moods, and attitudes I will continue to just be polite, and let my boyfriend and his ex do the parenting. No matter how much I have to hold my tongue. Luckily, I have adult nieces and nephews whom I have done the teen angst thing with so I am familiar. But, dating someone and possibly even marrying someone is a different dynamic. I love my boyfriend and if his son lets me, I can love him to. But, for now just taking it one day at a time. It is clear this kid may have a trust problem or resentments. Pretending to be happy all the time will just make him more suspicious. He is probably a smart kid. Particularly the oldest who helps with the picking out of silverware, bedding, furniture, etc. He lets her rule the roost. Basically it is all very commendable but I find myself, 60 years old and two years into this relationship being a bit jealous of the girls. The oldest 26 had a meltdown at the birthday party I gave for the dad because she felt sad? She likes me enough but wants his undivided attention when she is around. Luckily we live in different cities. She is in a relationship and I hope that lasts and can be a more consuming focus. I am trying to be patient and bite my tongue and not say anything I might regret but that is a challenge in many instances. For me I am more and more grateful my 3 kids are as welcoming and grounded as they are. They went through divorce at 15,12, 8. Waiting for children to get out of the house does not necessarily give them any better maturity or manners. One day at a time while taking deep breaths seems to be best advice. We have talked about getting engaged for about 2 mths now as well. He moved out of his apartment about a month after we started dating and moved in with his mother. He told me it was to be closer to me and to pay off some bills. He was married twice and has two children a boy and girl, ages 20 and 14 from his first marriage and a daughter age 8 from his second marraige. I have introduced him to my two daughters ages 7 and 5. He and I see each other every weekend. When I have my girls he usually drives up to see us 40mins and spend time doing things with us. I have met his 14 yr old daughter only. She would go missing for days, got into drugs, and was sleeping around. He ended up caring for his oldest two most of the time until he decided to end the marraige. He tells me when he ended that marriage and had to leave his children it nearly killed him. Then he got married a second time and now has an 8 yr old daughter. His ex from his second marraige is very stable and a great mom. I do know he has gone to one of her sporting events so far this school year and he fills in for around 2-5 hrs while his ex has to work late when needed. I love the relationship he has with his boys, and I love the boys as well. But I still have this feeling they are not comfortable around me, and dont want to listen to me at all. I love kids, and we eventually will want to have more children. I feel like other kids would like me by now, so it just hurts my feelings that I feel like they dont like to be around me. Give the kids their space and try to understand how their minds are processing everything. I am sure they like you. I would give it at least 2 years!!! Just have fun and enjoy what you guys have. If it is really right, everything will fall into place when the time is right. They accepted me until the ex wife found out about us…. Now they trash me publicly on the dreaded social media forums and have started trashing my girls too. When the ex wife found out about her ex having a girlfriend I suddenly became the woman he had an affair with and ruined their marriage. Oh yes… the kids liked me and we all got along great until the ex wife found out he was dating. The relationship was effortless before the ex wife became involved. If I had known then what I know now…. I never would have dated this guy. It turns out I knew his daughter 15 and my son 13 knew his daughter too. We decided to keep it quiet and only our close friends knew about us. My son did however know because he was around a few times before we started having feelings for each other. The BF and I have had several conversations about how to tell his daughter. Normally I would wait but our situation was a little delicate. I suggested speaking with his ex about how to talk to his daughter but he never would or have a casual conversation about dating with his daughter. I was really concerned about her reaction if she found out through the grapevine. She is very angry and bad mouthing me to her mom. She said she will never speak to her father again because he lied to her and she is done with him. Our disruption was not handled properly and I am deeply concerned for their relationship. I believe his ex will help as much as she can to be supportive and guide her through her emotions. They have developed a friendship since the divorce so I tried to reassure him to have faith in her help her understand. I fear it will also effect our relationship and I am scared because my child is already involved in our relationship. I know she feels betrayed because no one wants to hear how she did. I will provide the best support system I can without any interference in their relationship but I really feel lost. I feel so bad for her having all these emotions and him having the guilt of thinking he moved on too fast and not speaking about it with her first. He lets them walk all over him and never says anything. I try to keep my mouth shut, but it never works. Funny thing is they have never given me the chance and have no idea who I am. What can I do?? He has told her time after time that she is his child not his girlfriend. Every time I sit next to him she throws a fit and has to sit next to him. If he kisses me She has to get a kiss. I love her very much like my own child but I feel like she dosent want me and her dad to date or love each other. She very disrespectful to me. Will tell me to shut up and has hit me before and a lot of other disrespectful things. If you have any advice please or direction help me!!! He has a daughter that he has to look after three days a week. He has to be there for her. So I have to stay alone when she is here, they will do anything without me, except having the dinner I cook. She only be nice to me when she wants me to do things for her. I for one am dating and getting married soon to a wonderful man. Although his kids are disrepectful to Me. In turn these kids will pit me and my fiancé against each other. So sad but at the end of the day if this gets worse were gonna have to see them less and less of them until their older and can see the evil ways of their mom. He has a 18 year old 16 year old and 9 year old. The 9 year old adores me so much to the point where he cries when he has to go back to the grandma house where the three of them liv. The two oldest said he is too little to know any better but to like me. Mind you I have been nothing but nice to these kids. When they came over I tried to do whatever I could to make them comfortable and feel like this was just as much their home. My advice to you is to keep being you—keep being kind and thoughtful and positive, but stop trying to get them to like you. It is a no-win battle. Focus on your relationship with your boyfriend and your daughter. YOu know they lvoe you. Relationships are always conditional in some regard, and this might be something you just have to weather. Trust me, stop caring and you will be so much happier. But, keep being kind. Go out and educate yourself. Supplemental income for a guy who is paying his wife alimony or support or both. Objects and possessions with her name written all over them and heaps of wedding photos that are still out in the open. Each and every time you have an issue with the way he communicates with his friends, hides his relationship because of guilt, embarrassment, shame etc. I understand that people have pasts but how can one expect to have a future when the past is still sitting firmly in the living room like a rare momument or treaty that has since been broken and you are the stand in, third wheel, tag-a-long and 100% of the task force clean up crew. NO ONE else is either. So last night when I tried to address with him how I felt, he cut me off and said he was dealing with it. But for a kid to write on a people piece of paper that I should die? We saw him do it on the Arlo camera, and he also flipped off the camera for some weird reason. Just feeling lost and upset. My boyfriend split from his ex 6yrs ago he has 3 daughters who he has every single weekend without fail. The other 2 were fine. Enough were this weekend she was meant to be staying in her cousins round the corner so he asked me to go down and watch a film with him and the other 2. So I had to drive all the way home. They liked me til they found out we were dating. The 17 year old is more reasonable. The 15 year old locks himself in his room. He gets them so rare I try to be understanding of his time with them. I had a heart to heart talk with my bf. I told him if he sees a future with me then i need to be included in some way. We have deicded to not force his son to participate. But my bf is going to let him know my gf is coming over for dinner and a movie or play a game. We would like you to join us. I am kind of nervous though cuz I am uncertain if bf will follow through. Right now all we can do is pray and ask God to do what only He can do. Part the red sea and change the hearts of the kids. All i can do is be 1 Corinthians 13 to my bf and his kids. He has 2 children at home and I have 1. All the kids get along and I use to get along with them as well. Their attitudes towards me and my child started to change when their mom started to receive child support. We want to get married but his kids and their attitudes towards me and my child are putting a sour taste in his mouth about getting married. What can I do????!!!!!!! I love him and we want to continue our lives together and he is so good to me and my daughter. Let him get there. Just enjoy your boyfriend and what you have. As far as his kids, just be polite and kind and try to stay out of their way and let them get over whatever it is that is bothering them. I have been trying for so long to have a blended family -although I have no desire to marry I do desire to be with my boyfriend til death do us part. I have a teenager just about to graduate HS and we have a 20 month old son with a daughter on the way. He is great to my kid and our kids but his relationship with his other kids 14 yo boy and 10 yo girl are not the strongest and when they come over to visit everyone feels like it is a punishment. I guess the attitude I should have is be nice and not bother them but it also makes me feel like I am ignoring them. I will take your advice and just have hope they will change when they become older like after teenage years — def not looking forward to that. He lives with me and his kids, 11,9, and 7 live with us 50% of the time. His daughter, 9, on the other hand, is bypolar and has a problem telling the truth. But whenever she is with her mom and we see her like at sports she will give dirty looks, and be rude. What Should I do? And sad about the whole situation. He has a 12 year old son and I have a 9 year old daughter. He actually has a great relationship with my daughter. Due to the fact that my daughter is outgoing, friendly and approachable. Therefore, they can hang out laugh, play and enjoy each other. On the other hand his son is very shy and to himself. When he sleeps over he stays in my guest room play video games and barely comes out. I cook his favorite dishes so that he knows I am doing something he likes for him. I invite him out for ice cream and he turns me down. This kids barely interacts with my daughter. I have a pool and half the time he rather stay inside than enjoy the pool with my daughter and his dad. I have kind of learned to ignore it and go about my day. My daughter is different and he sees her everyday. But, I need some advice on how to bond with his really shy son! My boyfriend has 2 kids 14 girl and 17 boy. My boys are 11 and 13. She also threatened if I moved in she was going to pack up and never come back. So because my bf was scared to lose his daughter we are basically taking a break until things can be fixed. It sucks because I love this man so much and I feel i lost him due to his daughters jealousy. I will never forgive her or accept it. I watched as she sent messages to my dad when he was married. I heard the conversations. I witnessed as she, her mom, and her friends attacked my mother as well as us kids on Facebook. My dad believes her. This is the same man who said he wanted to terminate his parental rights to my face. He has called me a cunt and a bitch to my face. They deserve each other. I am almost 18 and as soon as I am, I will never have anything to do with them ever again. They are pointless and selfish people. I have been with my bf for 6 month, he is smart and wonderful to me, and our relationship goes well. My bf has been divorced for over 1 year, and his ex wife moved out to a city, 3 hours away by car from his place. I am recently divorced, my son 25 and daughter 24 finished college, got great job, and moved out. My bf took me to his family for Christmas party, introduced me to his entire family. Now, my bf started to talk about moving in together, but I am a little concerned. Right now, most of time, my bf comes to me Saturday, but cannot stay over night without arranging baby sitter. I visit him sometimes, and stayed over night only once, but did not find any issues. I am not sure what to do. HIs 40 year old son just broke us up for the 4th time and the last. We decided to not live together or marry, just date forever? He wants to be phone friends only so I gave him the heave-ho. He can also set boundaries with the children. He can also take opportunities to talk to the children about the situation. For example, if the child says he is my daddy not yours. That is an opp to talk with the child about how the new GF is not replacing her or her mom.

But one time I went out with him and I met his family. Be kind to the caballeros no matter what. Both girls have not spoken to me for 7 months out of 12, and they will not allow me to talk to them about the situation. It may take time to find the best options for you and your children and I encourage you to be prime with yourself as you work on figuring all of this out. I prepare food for myself and my boyfriend. I am super nice to my nieces and nephews, friends kids. Disliking someone based on these factors is called prejudice, and that has more to do with your family elements than your partner.
