I was married for 5 years been divorced for 1. It's been just me and my son till 6 months ago, and then I met a wonderful, loving, caring man. Who my son also adores! He’s wonderful with my son. My lease is coming up and we've talked about moving in together. I just hope it's not too soon and that we living together won't ruin our great relationship. I guess my past just has me spooked a little. I had no doubt in my mind till my cousin started with it’s to soon thing. But I know I've never felt this way in my life and I can say I’m truly in love with him and I know he loves me! Just want some opinions!

I moved in with a man after knowing him for 1 month. We have now been married for 13 years and are very happy. Make sure you discuss what each expect from the other in the relationship and what each hopes to gain. I don't think it is too soon if it will last but if there are any doubts that it will think of your son and how he will feel if it doesn't work out. Good luck to you and I hope you are happy whatever you decide to do

I am kind of in the same situation that you are. My boyfriend has a 13 year old son and we get him every other weekend, the boys mother has made sure that he gets to see his son. She has never tried to take that away from him. I trust my boyfriend and I know he won't cheat on me. It's not in his nature to do that, he is very honest and loyal to me. He does see his ex when he picks up his son or drops him off but it doesn't bother me because I trust him and I know he won't go back to her. It sounds to me like you have some trust issues with your husband. I would try what others have suggested and get to know his ex, make a friend out of her and then maybe you won't worry so much.

I've heard that sometimes people who live together and then get married have a higher divorce rate. (Probably because all of a sudden their expectations change.)
Are you sure you aren't in love enough to get married now?
Otherwise, it is up to you. I see no problem with it. You may want to discuss how you will handle things if it doesn't work out so there will be no one taking advantage of the other with the lease, etc.

Should you be moving in with a man? Why do people think this is ok? You've only known him for 6 months and you trust him with your most precious possession?
Just take care of your son.

Maintain your own place and continue to see him. Don't complicate the situation by moving in too soon. Moving in together could very well ruin your great relationship.

Don't set an example of living with a man for your child out of wedlock.

I think it's too soon...but you should trust your own judgement.
