hi,

yes there were issues concerning my acceptance of his two sons from his previous marriage. my two children lived withus from the begining ages 5 and 3 and just last year they changed their last name to his because they have that much respect for his as a dad. now he does not give a hoot about them only our daughter we have together. his 21 yr old son who lives here still talks with him as i belive he is not really affected since i am not his mom. once we were married his then 15 yr old moved in with us one month after we were married and stayed until he was 20. the other son moved in when he was 15 but struggled to fit in with the family and my husband and i did not address the situation properly and he returned to live with his mother. overall, the marriage was good but i believe the little issues have built up over time and when his son went through drug rehab it was hard for me to support him and i believe that may have been a turning point - this was about 2 yrs ago, then my daughter had a child which we started to care for last summer so she could go back and finish college. she will be done this aug - which my husband will say that him moving out he has no crystal ball to know how long it will last, but he was thinking that when she graduates she could move there and he would come back home. not sure how this is supposed to work when he has someone else - but has mentioned this on 2 seperate occasions.
