I have a girlfriend who had recently got a divorce for me. We have to hide our relationship from her 2 kids ages 11 & 12. She doesn't want her kids to think I stole her away from thier daddy. I am respecting her choice, but we are both struggling to express our love for eachother like we want to when its her turn to have her kids. (joint custody). Its 1 week she has them, the other week their dad takes them. She says her kids come before anyone. She hates pretending to be in this relationship around her kids, yet she says she has to hide it for her kids health. I have told her I want them to know, but she won't do it and I am not pressuring her because I respect her choice at the same time. This is so hard for me, but we have come a long ways throughout the last 4 years. Should I just hang in there? Should I call all of this quits cause I don't like pretending I don't love her when I do? Should I start showing interest in her in front of her kids? Anything help appreciated.
