As a woman, you should read Gatekeepers by Dr Shawn smith. Its target audience is men but the advice in the book applies equally well for women.

I have kids and my female partner has been wonderfully understanding. She supports me having time alone with them and isn’t jealous; she doesn’t pressure me to meet my kids.

The he won’t leave you alone thing seems a little off putting. Not on his part. Don’t know the situation, could be he really likes you a lot and it’s sweet. But it’s the fact you put it like you did. That, and This whole post come across like you are doing something here that you don’t want to do, and you seem kind of annoyed by it.

He might have more value to offer. He is mature, he knows how to raise kids, he’s not out with friends fucking other woman, it’s more than likely that he’s not an alcoholic and he’s responsible with money. Now compare a 25 yo boy.

I've got three kids and have re-entered the dating scene.

Friend, you have to give a ton more details than you have for me to answer intelligently.

Leave and find a man with less baggage.

The X is going to enter the picture thru his words or her actions. No one has time to tell you everything. You ready for a ready-made family? Not marriage, as gf. There's lotsa good & bad things about divorced men. Biggest ? is why divorced? There's at least 3 sides to every story. Good luck!

Call California Psychics. That's about as good as you're gonna get.

Not sure what you want us to say. We don't know the guy, and <gasp> all divorced men aren't the same. None of us know him.

Is this a relationship you want to take to the next level? I don't know your ages, but it's possible he is done having kids and you might want some of your own someday. So you have to look at that, super important information. If he is a good father, you have to understand his kids are his priority and you cannot look at his time away from you while he is with his kids in a personal way or not giving you the attention you want. I am about to be divorced with a 19 year old. I would not be in a serious relationship with a younger woman, casual sure, but serious no. I don't want to deal with younger kids. I don't want anymore kids. Women with no kids typically can't empathize with someone with kids and could be jealous of the relationship with them. You have to look at all these things. Maybe he does want more kids, or maybe you don't want kids and you are cool with being a stepmom someday. That could work. Just look at where you want to be in 5-10 years and if it is the same path as this guy.
