DEAR HARRIETTE: At first of final 12 months, I met the person of my desires.

He continues to amaze me in additional methods than one: He prioritizes me; he’s actually thoughtful and affectionate; he’s completed and bold; and he’s hilarious.

Currently, although, I’ve been having some considerations about what our future will appear to be.

He has three youngsters from a earlier marriage. He at all times makes it appear as if issues are amicable with them and going nicely, however I don’t really feel completely assured. Though he’s actually attentive and proactive in relation to my wants and our relationship, I fear as a result of it’s uncommon that I hear or see him interacting together with his youngsters.

We frequently spend total weekends collectively, and I’m starting to surprise when or if he spends time with them.

He typically reassures me that he sees them for all vital events and “as needed” (which he claims is usually throughout weekdays), however I’m unsure how true that’s and don’t essentially know the way to specific that.

I like my accomplice, and he has expressed a robust need to have extra youngsters sooner or later. How can I tackle my considerations with him earlier than shifting additional into our relationship?

— Child Connection

DEAR KID CONNECTION: Inform your accomplice that you’re having fun with your relationship and agree with him that it might be time to consider your future collectively.

Share that you’re inquisitive about his relationship together with his youngsters and what which will appear to be sooner or later. Ask to satisfy his youngsters so you possibly can see for your self what kind of relationship they’ve.

It could possibly be that he has established a rhythm with them that works, or it could possibly be that they’re fully estranged.

Discover out by assembly them and seeing for your self, and proceed the dialog concerning the future and what you each envision life collectively to be like.

DEAR HARRIETTE: Certainly one of my finest associates and I met and grew up collectively within the church. For so long as we’ve identified one another, we’ve been closely concerned in our church group, practices and traditions.

The previous few years, although, I’ve observed that she has taken a extremely large step again from this stuff. I’m unsure if it’s intentional or if it’s merely a matter of time or different priorities in her life.

I’m nonetheless closely concerned in our childhood church and share tales and updates along with her typically, however she by no means mentions desirous to return or cease in or restart, so I’m wondering if that’s a dialog she’d choose to not have.

I do know folks’s religious life can generally be a delicate matter, and I need to be conscious of that, however I’d additionally hate to see a buddy miss out on this facet of her life as a result of I used to be too afraid to ask some exhausting questions.

How can I inquire about modifications in her religious life with out coming off as intrusive? I don’t need to be presumptuous or overstep.

— Come Again

DEAR COME BACK: Sit along with your buddy and inform her you miss her at church. Share how vital it has been for you presently in your life. Ask her if she would contemplate coming to a service or one other exercise to see if it’s nonetheless a match for her.

Don’t push. Invite.
