Balancing Marriage and Family

Quote From: chelle1961

I have 2 children from a prev. marriage.  Children come first, thats it.  I didn't even read your entire message, the first sentence was enough.  Do what is right by your daughter.  you can always find another man. 

I appreciate your input and have heard that before. I also have read input from relationship experts who say that the parental/sig-o relationship should come first. I feel that is true but not to the point of excluding/denying attention and love to my daughter. My daughter does get a lot of attention and time from me. I guess that I was venting my frustration with dealing with this relationship and how hard it is to balance everything so that everyone is happy. I suppose that is normal for a lot of women out there, we want everyone to be happy. I also have trust issues since my first husband walked out on me without warning - when I was pregnant with my daughter and after suffering 2 previous miscarriages. I don't think that I ever got over that and it's hard to really trust anyone since then. That's why my daughter and I were so close when my boyfriend came along. I figured it was she and I against the world.
