This is random. But does it ever feel weird to date someone with kids? I don’t have kids. Totally old enough to have kids. Still sometimes I’m like hmmm interesting you have whole children you created and are responsible for, wild man.

I did date someone with a kid once. She introduced me to her Dad’s family as her friend. I thought it was adorable.

I dated and am still in a relationship with my wife who had two kids when I met her. I think it’s unfair to the children to date someone with kids if you’re not planning on being around for them consistently. Of course dating the person might not work out, and that’s unfortunate but I think the mindset is still important.

I agree with your sentiment. I’m in the periphery. I don’t think she remembers that I ever dated her Dad. He has since passed away. I met him and his daughter at the same time. So there was never any how are you gonna meet my kid discussions.

I was planning to marry her🤷🏽 she's the one who left.

Even so, now they live with their dad, but when he's at work they're at the house because they still see my mom as grandma🤷🏽

It’s possible to curate your family. My kids’ grandma is the mother of my wife’s ex-husband, a man we have no contact with. She’s cool, he isn’t. The kids are raised and it’s all good. I suppose they never knew any different and that’s just fine.

That first sentence is gold.
