[quote=Anonymous]NP here- I have not read whole thread but my advice is: (1). Lower your expectations - on all fronts - blended families are tough and don’t expect the kids to warm up to you immediately - it could take years - so just expect the least (2) don’t try to compete with the mom - don’t insist the kids ever call you mom/ etc (I have seen this happen) (3) know the kids will always come first for the man you are dating if he is a dad (4) what do you want? If you want your own kids, discuss this early (5) this is not an easy path! There are a lot of people to fall in love with (6) so do you have a sense of humor? This is essential to get through blended dating /family That said, I am in blended situation as we are all happy now but the first few years can be TOUGH. You have to really, rally love the man to want to make this work. [/quote]
