It's tough, no question. My husband has a "pyscho" ex but some great kids in spite of their "mother". You really have to love a man, and have a solid foundation for your relationship before it will ever work. And remember, you deserve to be happy and so does the one you love..kids DO NOT run the household, and your opinions should count. As cliche as it may sound, communication is the key. And if you can't talk to your husband/wife, then you need to seriously re-evaluate your relationship.

It doesn't if you can keep the focus on the best interest of the kids. Making your relationship a priority is hard no matter what the family blend. I just know lots of people I work with are really committed to keeping it real and working it out. Most of them have learned from others who are doing the same. I think the sacrafices are definitely doubled... and thats the hard part. Everyone has to agree that the sacrafices are worth it.... some are just too selfish.

It's because of the fact that you know he's still somehow in contact with the previous woman. Every time you look at his child, you're going to think of his past. It's natural to feel awkward about it.

I think it's because their past is always going to going to follow that person because its a child. Not it's fault of course. But that is always a problem...Then not just the kid...You have baby mama drama...Which to me it stupid but sometimes these women have nothing better to do than to try and make your life miserable.

It doesn't unless there is jealousy there . I am not jealous one bit . I lived with a guy and he had kids with someone else . I think his ex was awesome and i came to be friends with her . I ended up liking her more than him.

it's not always like that. My husband and I both have kids from outside relationships and we get along just fine. We know the boundaries, how the ex-spouses are, and we deal with it together. It's not easy but it's possible

I know what your saying my husband has a 15 year old son and let me tell you it is not easy My advice is try to make him fit in and I have learned to listen to his needs He felt for the longest time he didn't fit in because we have two other kids and they are always with us and he was just visiting on weekends. Its tough I know what your feeling.

did they have a child while you two were together? if it happened that way, then that is kind of hard to deal with.can you forgive them or will there always be guilt or doubt that they can be trusted? if you can't let it go. if you can, then work through it with him.

It doesn't have to be. I am not sure what problems you are having but open and honest communication along with ground rules should help take care of any problems you are facing.
