Finding a new relationship( with four in toe)

mewannaboy by mewannaboy Speaking(June 2006) (rank 301st)
I am always interested when i over heard comments about a mother of 4 trying to get herself a new relationship and what effect this could have on the children of the previous relationship. i have four children in varying ages and the many months they spent with little to no
contact from there dad(his fault and mine) was incredibly hard. after becoming closer to the man i now have in my life i found that the children not only had daddy type figure to ask for a game of catch but also another adult to cry to ,ask for help with homework and another person to attend events such as school concerts ,when daddy wasn't available.knowing first hand that many women young and old fear looking for any lasting relationship for the simple fact of the whispering public or that simply no person will see me as a worth while girlfriend/boyfreind with four children Do not let anyone tell you you are silly for wanting what many people have, a  solid comfortable relationship with someone.The comments like "worry about your kids and not a man" i got sick of because i believe your happiness is just as im portant as theres. and that they too will enjoy a whole and enjoyable life too from the "new " daddy figure in there lives.

I had a step father

My mum wanted a father figure in the house.  That is not quite what we got.

She does regret getting remarried.

As much as people might want adult company plus their own happieness.  Don't forget the kids.

If the new found partner does not spend time with the kids before you get hitched then they sure won't after.

My mum and step dad lived in two towns and when they did spend time together it was alone.  I suppose trying to catch up.  But that I think that would have given me a light bulb momment that he just wanted mum.

Looking for a man you don't want to go out of your way.  Go to the park, beach with your children and you may find a man with his own.  Nothing is wrong with the Braddie Bunch.  I new a lady who's husband quite yound died of a heart attack and she had two young girls . Luckily met a man with his two own children and both are happily married.

Be picky as you will not just effect your own feeling but your children as well.
