[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Single mom here, late 40s with an elementary-aged kid. I make enough money, attractive but could lose a few pounds.

I met a man 2.5 years ago on Match, we hit it off and have been inseparable ever since. He and my DD get along fabulously, we get along great. We practically live together, have vacationed together and basically operate like a family unit. We occasionally argue, but not often.

Here is the rub. He has been married twice and never wants to get married again. Ever. He will not commit. He said he will never be DD's step dad (her dad is in the picture). He is my boyfriend even though we act like partners in life. He is wonderful to me and DD in every way and I have never been with someone so thoughtful. No one has ever treated me this well. People mistake him for DD's dad because they are so comfortable with eachother.

Is this doomed to fail? I would be willing to get married, someday, but not yet. I guess he just wants to be able to leave easily if he gets sick of me or things go south. His divorces were ugly and extremely costly. I don't need his money, I have my own and we would both sign a prenup if it were to ever happen.[/quote]

If your dream is to get married and get access to his money, that's never going to happen.

If you're cool with being his informal life partner, than you aren't wasting your time.

But of course you want access to his money so yes, you're wasting your time.[/quote]
