i think for me it's no problem, if u still love that person even if whatever happens to his past life, u will accept him, actually i also experience it here in kuwait and we're working in the same hotel, i try to addopt even his culture, i accept him even if he's married, but suddenly we end up to nothing, so be thankful of what u have, and anyway the last descision is still in you.,

If he is the one told you that he has a child, means he is honest to you. And if you both are in love, why not? I will still marry the guy if I were you. But if you find out from other people that he has a child or he didn't tell you yourself that he has a child, means he try to hide something from you. Than you should think very carefully again if you want to marry him, cause i think honest is very important in the relationship between man and woman.

Love is very strange reegan1207, remember he loved you first, he may have erred awy, but look the guy is back and he could have been your first love. You admit you love him and you dont appear to hide your liking for this man, blossom this love, forgive and forget the past, he got a woman, got a child elsewhere, but he didnt find love elsewhere, his love is in your eyes, give this man his last chance, you could be having back what is truely your, your lost sheep of love!

I did marry a man who had a child and an ex-wife. If she weren't around it would have been fine. She was very intrusive in our lives. She would drop the kid on our doorstep whenever she wanted and my husband let her. If you can set up some ground rules to protect yourself and your privacy with him, go for it. You need to know where you stand with him. Will you always come last with him or can he put you first? I am not sure if I would make the same choice if I could go back and do it again. Good luck!

Well I think if you really love the person, you have to accept him/her whatever or whoever he/she is including their past relationships and experiences. You have to think if you are really ready to be with him for the rest of your life even if he has a son. Is your love for him willing to accept everything specially his son? You have to consider that he has a responsibility for the child even if she's not married with the mother. At what extent is your love for him? If you cannot stand him just because he has a son and if this will becomes problem in your relationship (in near future), well I think you don't have to continue the relationship and waste your time for this person. Entering into marriage life is not easy and you have to bea ready to spend your whole life with your partner. Think about it...Goodluck. Hope you'll made the right decision..=)

So he leaves you hanging and later on in your life comes back, expecting you to be waiting? He could just be wanting to take advantage~ and do you really want to have to clear up the mistakes he made when he was younger? Give it a year or two and then see how keen he is~ also get to know his son because the worst thing to do is dive into marraige when you don't even know the stepson!
