Met someone online 9 mo's ago. We spoke briefly-phone & then drifted apart. He contacted me 2.5 mo's ago. I responded. I did a background check & all is good. We began speaking via phone-2 wks. We met in person. We hit it off. It's really difficult 2 spend time together since we live about 40 miles apart & we've got responsb/children. We are both in our early 40's, married 2x's & fulltime single parents. We are much alike & want the same things. We are a great match. We've gone out together w/children & that's all good. We do not not want to depend on leaving children constantly w/baby sitters. Kids on both sides get along great. He suggested we alternate weekends in visiting each others home. That may make us vulnerable to sex. We both have very strong feelings f/one other. We have much respect f/ our children & rather wait. I want 2 know more about him-before I become more involved w/ him how can I tell he is really serious about our relationship? it's been a while since I've dated.

Dating and remarriage when both have children is a very sensitive issue. It might be advisable to go a little slower. It is nice for the two families to do things with each other, but don't let this take over your family life. If the two of you get very serious and then you break up, this will hurt the children who have also become bonded with each other. You and this man could be friends for years, and the children could be friends, even if the romance doesn't work out, if you move at a careful pace. You have to make the children's welfare your first priority for now.

make the most of the "little" time you have together and be happy you found each other...
