A question for men.

Would you start a relationship with a girl who already had a child?

Female input is welcome, as always. It's just less relevant.

The child is likely to develop an inferiority complex, especially if you and her have more children, they'll feel less part of the family than the children that are biologically both parents'. It might be easier if you had children of your own already, too, then they'd be on even ground with her kids.

What about a relationship that was only likely to last a few months, rather than a long-term one involving having children to her?

A few months? Nah, it would be unfair on the kid.

If she's stunning and you wanna be seen with her for a few months, go for it. Just be respectful to the kid throughout and split amicably.

Doesn't bother me.
Spent 2 years with a divorcee with a 7 year old when I was 22.

Happy days.

Seconded.
Otherwise, if you're going to be nice and responsible, can't see why not.

At this age? Nah, fuck that for a laugh, it'd be a nightmare. Maybe when I'm older, wise, less self-centered etc, but the demand on her time wouldn't be worth it as it is now.
