[quote=Anonymous]She married you when you were essentially childless. She expected one life, and now she’s living in another. A divorce is probably the best thing you can give her now based on her actions.

For reference, my DH had a daughter that the mother took to another state (they were never married and the state that did the child support/custody agreement was not interested in helping him). He didn’t see her or have any communication between ages 8-11. Then, he finds a news article about them being homeless and living in a car while he’s continuing to pay $1000/month. After a drawn out legal battle, mom is deemed unfit and daughter is returned to him. There were 4 years between when we got married and when he got custody of her, so I had 4 years to be married to a man who had no child obligations beyond child support and we were planning to start our own family. Fortunately, I love kids and had always been open to fostering/adopting, and I never forgot that he was a dad and that this was a possibility. We now have a nice blended family and are doing well.

So, get rid of the second wife, raise your daughter to adulthood while dating if you’d like, then consider getting remarried after daughter is grown. [/quote]
