WilliamsTheGrea:Don’t start your life this way - walk away and don’t look back - throwaway the girl and her child , go look for another girl - trust me you’ll look back and thank me for this advice |

If you cannot accept the child. Tell ya babe straight up. She has to choose between both of you, and of course she'd choose her child. I don't blame her for not telling you probably she was thinking the relationship was not a certain one and she did well to tell you before walking down the aisle. If you can't accept the child, you've have to let go of mother and child you'd be fine. WilliamsTheGrea: |

WilliamsTheGrea:Single mothers will ALWAYS have issues. Either the single mother, her child/ children or ex. One way or the other issues will surface. I feel very sorry for them. There may be few exceptions but I think most won't just work. Even if you are nice to the child, most times she will read meaning. It is a situation one should avoid if one can. I don't think the person is talking about your looks, the person is talking about how they fall for "bad boys" and come for good guys after learning their lessons the hard way. I have had two ladies I really liked. I withdrew once I knew 1 was a single mom. The 2nd one decided to marry another guy( probably because she felt he had money). Today she's out with a child. If not for the child I would have considered her. Children change a lot. It is also a financial burden. Logically, one would ask; why settle for one with baggage when you can settle with one who has none of that? |

We have been 1 year into the relationship now and we are to get married next month but guys the problem I am having now is that she has a child for another man which is her ex she was with when she was young she gave birth at age 20, we dated for about 7 months before she told me this.This is the reason why i do not trust the authenticity of your relationship with the lady. A woman who will wait for that long to tell your such vital information is a woman i cannot trust no matter how good she is in the kitchen and bedroom. She even told you because she was in a fix and had no choice meaning that if the child could still stay with her mum, you would never know. SHE IS NOT HONEST. A DIS-HONEST GIRLFRIEND = A DIS-HONEST FIANCEE = A DIS-HONEST WIFE = A DIS-HONEST MOTHER. |

It's wrong for you to have brought her into your house when you have not yet done the needful since you don't want her child, the best is for you to let her be and move on, it won't be easy raising someone's else child, if am the one I won't try such, she even tried telling you on time. |

Hopefully the Op gets this comment. Yes, you have described your relationship as perfect but unfortunately you have to let go of the relationship in search of another perfect one if luck won't be against you. My reason for saying you should let go is that she wasn't very honest upfront. She could have told you the truth and let you decide if you want to live with that or not from the beginning instead of after 7months of you having committed your love to her. I feel your pain that it's not easy to just have another man's son to take care of especially after you took up the mother's responsibility without marrying her legally yet. If you must keep the relationship, these are my recommendations: 1. Check yourself deeply to know if you have any dark secrets you have not shared with her too. If there's a dark spot, share it with her too and take it as a balance of the your pasts. 2. Before you become a monster foster father and horrible boyfriend overnight, you can approach a trusted man of God for spiritual leading (not someone who knows both of you). Maybe, just maybe you might get a leading that'll help you love the boy, readjust your idiosyncrasies,love your "family" afresh and be happy. WARNING; if you must take the child and continue with the relationship, consult a competent lawyer on how to go about a standard written agreement between your girlfriend, her family and yourself to forestall any future spring up of one miscreant coming to claim father or related occurrences. Peace be unto you Op. |

WilliamsTheGrea:What's the issue here? Break up with the lady and find another. I am a woman..and I vowed I can NEVER be involved with a man who has a child with another woman,dead or alive. Once I know he is a baby daddy,end of relationship. If the child appears after marriage,I can NEVER accept such child into my home. Why is yours so difficult? End the relationship...Let her go with her baggages . Its not a do or die affair |

Her so is always gonna come first, worse is even when she gives birth to your kids that son is gonna come first. Most single mums don't want this children to be corrected, whatever you do won't be enough. The son is her number not you not anyone else. If she's angry your correcting him at age 4, what happens when he gets old. Na beat two of them go dey beat you. I'd advice you think again about marrying her. Don't even think she will change, it only gets worse. |

WilliamsTheGrea:Single moms, especially those without the means to adequately cater for their child(ren) tend to show extreme love to clueless guys, who could fill in the gap, because they're in a mad search for a lifeline. Final decision would have to be yours ultimately, but be aware that you would train another man's child whose only duty after donating sperm, say thirty years down the line, would be to cry and beg for the forgiveness of your wife (assuming you go ahead to marry her) and his son. Being responsible for a child is not beans and it's the joy of knowing that you sired that child that serves as fuel on the journey! Then, to 'father' a stubborn child whose mom suspects your motive at correcting/moulding her child? Damn! Five years ago, I would have done that, but today? God forbid! |

victorian:Hello, I'm a bit curious, why would you have preference for the girl than the son. Do you think you'll easily win the girl child over than the boy? |
| Re: In A Relationship With A Single Mom; Please Advise by victorian(f): 3:07pm On Feb 24, 2020*. Modified: 3:26pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
Ayt27:Girl children are easy to love and manage. My maiguard wife has two little girls 4years and 2years. Those girls are so adorable even though they look poor. When they see me coming back to the office, the way they run and hug me melts my heart, I have no other choice but to soften up and love them. They are so trusting. And when I dash them money to go buy sweets and biscuit, their innocent faces always lights up with pure joy . It's refreshing having lil girls around. It's amazing how they love unconditionally, Without forming or anything. Sighs So yes it's easy managing lil girls. But a male child? Oh jeez! My bestie elder sister has a 5yearw old son. The first time the boy saw me, see the way he rushed my boob's and hugged me, I was so embarrassed. The elder sister was laughing and struggling to drag him away from my boob's. Mehn if he were not a boy, I would have slapped him. But anyways he's a kid. So I manage to struggle out of his hold. Later he came again and rushed me. I was so exasperated I swear and he's so stubborn. He doesn't let go! Boys are a handful. I don't have strength for Their hyper activeness. That's why I prefer lil girls to boys. |

You are not yet married, so me thinks you need to evaluate your options and decide on what exactly you want. There is always a price tag, you know. If you don't love the lady enough to keep her baby, you will need to convince her mother to keep the boy till you can cope. You can not run away from the financial support too. So, you have to compromise or quit the relationship completely. My humble opinion. |

All he needs in his young life is a good, male role model & what a great candidate you are, Mr Nice Guy!
You know this child has no father or rather, doesn't have one that is interested in his upbringing. It would be a shame if you also turned your back on him without even trying to turn him around. Not trying to guilt trip you into doing something you don't want to do, but sometimes all a person needs is someone that cares. This child has already been abandoned by two people in his life, the biological father & the granny. Only God knows what kind of trust issues & worthlessness he's going to grow up with if he doesn't get stability in his life soon. Think of it as a humanitarian act
