My eight year old daughter is really having a difficult time adjusting to this new situation.
Back in August, my fiance' moved in with me. When he did, she had to start sleeping alone. Also,we had just moved into a new apt. and she started a new school. So the poor kid has really had to make some adjustments.
The thing is though, that we want to be married. But, we cannot at this time. You see, I have lupus and cannot lose my medical coverage. His employer does not furnish it at this time. We could not afford my medications and any potential medical bills could devastate us for life.
My daughter is just not adjusting to this situation, though. He is really good to her, and I know he loves her. But, she is crazy about her natural Dad...who is a really great guy. She begs me to never marry my fiance'.
This whole situation is just wearing me down. I feel so caught in the middle. What should I do?
