[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is awful.  My parents divorced when I was six and my dad met a wonderful woman a year later.  From seven to eleven-years-old, I spent weekends and vacations with my dad and his girlfriend and truly loved her.  They broke up and I was never allowed to see her.  I cannot tell you how much this hurt me.

The first thing I did when I got to college was call her and we’ve been in close contact ever since.

I implore you to stay in the kids lives and do not cut them out.  [/quote]

+ 1 You created a bond with that other child and now you have an obligation to them, and also to your own DC. You need to keep doing things together as a group. Your relationship with your BF is not the kids' business.[/quote]

This is the reason why you don't create these intimate bonds with children that aren't yours. OP doesn't have an "obligation" to the ex's child. That's ridiculous. It's a lesson learned and she will have to suck it up and break up with both. It's a hard lesson and hopefully will help both parties understand the gravity of introducing people to their kids.[/quote]
