[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anything good about him?[/quote]

He’s a sweetheart.

He makes me feel great about myself when I’m around him. I don’t normally feel bad about myself, but he just accepts me. He gets me.

What else is it about him?  If it’s mostly about you feeling great about yourself and feeling accepted, that seems that these are things you should feel regardless of who you are with.

If you are thinking potentially long term, would you align with how you want to parent children?  For example, does he want his children to go to college, would saving or paying for some of it be a financial priority?  Assuming you are the higher earner, are you comfortable with this and either indirectly supporting him and his children or willing to live the lifestyle he has now?  Is he comfortable and confident with his significant other being better educated and making more money?  How well do the two of you communicate?

There are lots of situations that can work with people on paper not being what society may think of as a traditional match.  But to make it work long term, I think each person had to feel confident in themselves and who they are, not afraid to speak up in the relationship, be more than good with couples communication and they have to have values that align.[/quote]
