[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being old divorced with kids is not good. He was probably excited to bag a white girl and had blinders on.[/quote]

I feel that I have a better understanding of his culture than he does. There were no blinders. I brought up family pressure multiple times early on to avoid this and make sure we were on the same page. My family would also have issues. In these circumstances, unless you are ready to marry, dating should not come up. He should have known this. He said he was excited about me and wanted to tell them. We needed to have serious discussions first. This is not a typical American way of dating. [b]I did not mention my ExH until 18 months when the m word came up. [/b]Then I had intense family pressure to marry even though I was not sure. Disaster. He should have known better what the reaction would be. In these situations, you should be prepared for this reaction before it is mentioned. He was not prepared for it...it shows a lack of relationship experience and some immaturity or lack of a confidence. It was surprising because I thought I was dealing with someone who more fully understood these issues. I was very hesitant to get involved and he said he was past family pressure. If he had not told me this, there would not gave been a 3rd or 4th date to begin with. [/quote]

You made it 7pages but no drama and you outed yourself getting lazy. There was a lot of of potential here. Too bad.
