SingleScenes
by Sarah Smart
Q. Against my better judgment, I’m dating a guy with two children. The problem is that I don’t like his kids. They are spoiled and disrespectful. He has asked me to marry him, and I suspect he’s also looking for a mother for his kids because he has custody. I love him, but I don’t want to raise his kids. I can’t make up my mind. I don’t want to lose him, but I don’t want to be miserable either. My family says I shouldn’t do it and my friends say I’m being selfish. What do you say?
A. I agree with your family. If you marry this guy feeling the way you do, you’ll make your life and everyone in the household a living hell. You stated the reason why. You don’t like his kids and you’re not interested in parenting. Save yourself some grief and move on down the road.
Q. Two weeks ago, my fiancé told me he was going out of town on business and he would be gone a week. Two nights later, I spotted him coming out of a restaurant on another side of town, with his arms wrapped around another woman and they were kissing. He didn’t see me and I didn’t confront him. I haven’t told anyone else about it. I love him and don’t want to do anything to spoil our wedding plans, because I have spent a lot of money on this wedding. I haven’t slept since the incident. What’s your advice?
A. Run and forget about the money! Chalk it up to a loss. Call off the wedding, unless you don’t mind being married to a big liar and a cheat. If you’re not sleeping now, wait ‘til you marry him.
