Thanks for all the useful advice guys and gals.

Well we've met up a couple of times this week as the biological father has her son this week. Getting on really well and I have mentioned the fact that i'm not sure how I feel about the situation of her having a son. Hadn't thought about stuff like that before.

Will: I do like kids, and someday I will have kids of my own (hopefully). I'm not sure if i'm ready now. My life is only just settling down after a few years of everything being "up in the air". You've got a good point that being a dad is not a half-hearted affair, and that's what concerns me. Who knows, maybe something like that is what I need in my life, or something to avoid completely?

I don't know how i'd feel telling friends and family that we met back up and she's got a child. Maybe they'd think I was a fool for going near her, or people might have less respect for her. I know other people's opinions like that shouldn't really matter but we're kidding ourselves if we said we didn't care what others think.

So you would tell her that although you'd like to see her, you wouldn't want any involvement with the kid? I think that would be an instant "no-no" in her eyes....

It's really unknown territory for me here too
