Hey there internet ladies and gentlemen. When entering a relationship with someone, there's a lot of trial and error to find out how compatible you two are. There's a whole nature of the relationship that could be extremely incompatible, but does not reveal itself until too late into the game. The important thing is to find out the truth before things get too deep.
If a normal, traditional beginning of a relationship is difficult to navigate, adding children becomes downright tiresome. Things can get more than complicated when one person has children. Take the original poster (OP) for example. She entered a relationship with a man who has 3 children. He told her profusely she won't be expected to take care of his children at any point. Lo and behold, after some time, he does expect her to be their mother. Talk about a potential breakup? When you're not already a mother, why would you suddenly become one?
