I've got a real dilemma. I met a lovely man on online dating, we get on great, and are about 5 or 6 dates in.
I have 3 children and he has 2. All of our children are under 10.
I'm fairly financially comfortable and have enough disposable money to go out for date nights most weeks etc. He's a nurse and is very dedicated to his job and children. He appears to provide the best life he can for them, but as a result, he has seemingly no disposable income. He's been single for a few years and had a very quiet social life so I don't think he realises how much socialising can cost.
I am starting to fall for him and I feel terrible for thinking this, but I don't know if I can continue to pay for all of our dates. Him ever affording a holiday seems impossible.
I am really torn. Am I going to end up falling for him and then resent him down the line?
I know that if I call things off I'll be miserable and sad. AIBU to even consider ending it because of his financial position?
