Hello there, that isn't a decision that anyone can make for you, maybe you could tell us a bit more about yourself, such as how old your children are, how long you have been divorced and what country you live in?

Hello again, so you have three children and you are worried about this new relationship

The next thing to ask is if you used contraception, if not then you can get hold of the "morning after" pill.

The children will be fine about you having a new relationship even if this takes some time to adjust, you are entitled to your ow life as well as being a mum, I would say the main thing is to decide whether this is right for YOU and how serious you see this becoming. If you just want a casual thing then of course that is fine but make sure you sort out contraception and also don't include him in the children's lives until/unless things become more serious.

Hi Youlove and welcome from me!

As Louise said it is for you to decide what you want from him, however be careful that he is not looking for somewhere to get his feet under the table.

Do the children already know this man? How long have you known him? Where did you meet?
