GuySimple Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 I’ve got a friend who has been involved with a guy for about a year now. He is separated with two kids. He has moved in with the friend and has been there for about 5 months so far but has periodically traveled back to his home to see the kids. The clincher is, his kids are young 11 and 12 or something close, and they live with their mom about a 4 hour plane ride away. Now my question is, how realistically is it that he will stay in this new relationship? I can’t imagine if he loves his kids how he could stand being away from them for such a long time when they are so young. As far as I know they haven’t visited him here. My concern is that one day he is going to wake-up and dump my friend and go home. She’s puts on a brave face but I know this concerns her.
Lil Honey Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Or it will be too expensive, too inconvenient, to "difficult" to see the kids, so he will stop seeing them and continue to live with his girlfriend. It happens a lot.
whichwayisup Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 Or will be the other way around. Maybe he'll ask your friend to move with him so he can be closer to his kids. Who knows what his intentions are and how he truely feels about the amount of time away from his kids. She does have a right to know and she should ask him what his long term plans are.
Author GuySimple Posted October 11, 2005 Author Posted October 11, 2005 He went to see them for about 4-5 weeks in the summer. I'm not sure this went over well, but who knows. I understand he has a great relationship (or had) with his kids so I don't expect him to leave them totally behind
