First off is that I needed to post. It really helps me see things in writting. We are both scared. She had a really bad experience with her ex and shes never been married. I look at the stats and chances for divorce for me again are huge. That is the main fear. But I cant let that stop me cause nothing is for sure. B my daughter said she was happy that I have a gf. She doesnt know about my plans. But I will let her know.

It is a very different R that I have now my GF is very traditional as she wants the male to take over things. Not be controlling but make decisions and take the lead. My ex made all the decisions and later I resented.
Im learning.
