I recently got involved with a guy that has a child from a previous relationship. When we met he and his ex, were broken up for one+ years and he still took care of his child. In the beginning this was not an issue. Since then, she has learned of the extent of our relationship and now, all of a sudden has all these feelings for him. The feelings arent mutual and he is happy with me, HOWEVER, she is making the situation harder on him by saying that he cannot see his child, because he doesnt want to be with her. I dont know what to do, because we are falling in love, but I am afraid that love is not enough. I feel that she will continue to manipulate him when he is happy, and I really am confused. Any suggestions??

Well does he have a court ordered child support and visitation, if not I'd suggest he hire a lawyer and get it all in writing because until that's the case, she'll continue to manipulate and use the child. So get the visitation and child support into the court records, so if she doesn't let him see the baby, it's all documented.
