My partner has 3 children from another marriage and I have yet to meet them, I am a little scared to be honest. Scared because they may not like me and resent me for being with their father, and scared that their mother may limit my partners visits with his kids because he has begun to move on with his life. The girls are all under 10 years old and I realise it is hard for them. Coupled with this I recently had an abortion because I did not want to cause to much confusion for all parties, which has left me feeling terrible as I really wanted a child but I was so worried how his children would react and how we would cope financially with the cost of maintenance as his ex-wife does not work and then to add the additional cost of another child. I love him so much but I dont want him to lose his children because of me, but at the same time I want us to be happy. Am I over reacting? Is there a better way to deal with the situation? Will me having a child cause too much pain for the kids?
