Julie-I have one word of advice. RUN AND KEEP RUNNING. I remarried after 3 years of divorce to a really nice guy that I love very much. However, his ex-wife and his 3 kids and they are nasty people. The mother poison's the kids minds and in turn this makes my life terrible. No matter what I do, it's never right and I'm always saying or doing something wrong, even when I'm not around. Like I said, I love my husband but you reach a point where you have to save yourself. If I had to do over, NO WAY. It's not worth the headache and all the baggage that comes with it. Look for a divorced guy with NO KIDS. Then this way the ex will (hopefully) never interfere.

I hear you Julie. After 3years of divorce, I met my soulmate. Never believed in them, but I found one! He is wonderful and has a 5 year old daugher. We had been dating for almost 2 1/2 years, and have been married about a month. I am not regreting (yet), but over this time and certainly since I said "I do", I wonder if it is going to be worth it. His ex-wife is something. Always trying to accuse us or question our parenting skills. To me, she comes off as jealous and bitter. Everytime we say we can get along for the child's sake, she is rude to me when I see her again. Most times I ignore her, but once in a while it builds up and let her know how I feel. Mostly it bothers me that she degrades my husband. Always commenting negatively on something. I grew up without a father, and I can tell you a couple of things for sure. The child, and the ex, are very lucky he pays child support on time every month (and believe me it is plenty for one child). Also, my father lived in another state and lived life as if me and my sisters did not exist. So bottome line is, even the best of daddy's get hell from the ex's. With that said, I do wonder at times if it will be worth it. But I am committed and will be the bigger person by backing off.
