What difficulties did you experience? Any suggestions or tips in this matter? Have you ever been in love with someone and their children did not care for you? What was the end result?

I am currently in a relationship with a single father. He has kids but they stay with their mother. He only sees them on weekends. My rule is simple. If they don't like me it's ok. I am not really here to please them or force them to like me. I am here to be in a relationship. I don't try to reach out to them as that seems awkward. I have nothing against them though. Dating a single father means that sometimes you become the second priority. Children comes first. That is ok with me. I don't want them to feel that I am competing with them for their father's attention. I am not really good in dealing with children so I don't try. If they don't like me so be it, I will continue to live my life the way I want it.
