[quote=Anonymous]"...our exes which has all been amicable and low drama thus far." Key words here: thus far. His ex may very well change her attitude or yours may change. In your case, there is a world of difference between being the nice woman daddy is dating versus "stepmother." When you become stepmother let me assure you that no matter what you do, his ex-wife WILL have something to say about your treatment of the kids. And if won't always be positive. And she will drag your partner into it and make him take sides. It is inherent that most women will resent another woman involved with raising her kids. Especially when that woman is not a direct relative AND is now involved with her former man. Tread lightly, OP. If I were you I'd wait another year and then do a trial live-in arrangement if you can. If that goes well look at longer term but... Do NOT get remarried. Keep your finances separate. Mixing up pots of money, including child support, would be a disaster. [/quote]
