Re: Dating a Canadian "CommonLaw Seperated Man"

Lawyers sometimes say a lot of things to get money...FYI, the mother already has defacto custody because they aren't legally married. He may well get shared custody, it wouldn't take a big battle. He will likley be paying child support and if she does get a lawyer, she may even get spousal support...yes...even if they aren't married. Canada is quite accepting of common law relationships, especially when they have been together as long as they have and presenting themselves as married.
I agree with the rest...walk away. This is going to become a bigger mess than you are prepared for. The guy went away with her for two days WHILE he was dating YOU...for CLOSURE? Sorry, been fed that line of BS myself many moons ago...its crap.
I know you have these feelings, but its time to think with your head and not your heart. You are worth more. You deserve more. Please, take the time to read, especially the step parents board. When you get the "but that will never happen to us" and "Oh, but our love is sronger than that" anddon't forget the "But love will conquer all" thoughts come onto your head, sneeze real hard, repeatedly and get them out...it can and likely will happpen to you. I am not trying to be mean or Un-understanding...just been on thos board a long time, and heard my own share of garbage form "loving, caring men".
Walk away........
