i saw a couple stories similar to mine on this topic. i fell in love with a man who i knew had a two year old child and i married him because i loved him. i decided that not marrying him because he had a kid and possibly losing the best thing i ever had over it would be silly. well, here i am today emotionaly stressed knowing that it will never be just us without the mother of his child tagging along and it will never be just me, my husband and our children. no, it's me, my husband, my husband's kid and our children... and sometimes that other b**ch. is there anyone out there who's husband has a kid by another woman and maybe has some kids with him, who's lives are working out fine? can i get some reassurance?

Is It Normal?

    Im on the other side of a similar situation. I guess you can say I'm the "baby mama" or whatever.My daughter's father is married now and I'm in a very serious relationship. His wife and I get along just fine as well as my bf and my daughter's father. All four of us try our best to make my daughter is comfortable as possible in this situation. We try our best to show her that eventhough mommy and daddy aren't together, we all love her very much, including his wife and my bf. We pretty much show her that she has the best of both worlds. Focusing on her caused everything else to fall into place and kill whatever petty differences we had. Another thing is that we're all mature enough to do what we have to do to make this situation work. Idk about your situation. You called her a b*tch.

    Of course there are! Look, if you are having these kind of problems don't wait to get counseling - just do it.
