It's a dealbreaker...should I still give him a chance?

I met a man that I'm incredibly attracted to in more ways than one. I was really excited to start things up until I learned he has a kid... which is my ONLY deal breaker (go figure).

 

So I backed off (dated men with kids before, never works out), got on with my life and forgot about him...until we met again (we have mutual friends). I have a really hard time being around him without being very aroused...and not just physically. I keep thinking... for all I know he could be the man of my dreams. He could make me happy in ways I never thought of (I always feel good around him).

 

And I ask myself, even if he IS the man for me, would I still stick around despite the fact that he has a kid? Well that depends on how we would be together, and I don't know his history, his current circumstances nor how interested he is in me. If I knew all of this, I could make a better decision.

 

Is it worth finding out? Or should I avoid this situation altogether? Curiousity killed the cat ... and I don't have that many lives left.

can you imagine yourself as part of that "kids" life.......are you ready to be involved with a man whose main priority is that child..who has an ex who is also going to be part of your future.......do you like kids.....fi the answer is a resounding no for most....i would think this is not the man of your dreams...the kid is not going to leave the picture...neither probably is the mother....you will have to put aside any ill feelings you may have....towards an ex .......deb
