i seperated and divorced early last year after many years of unhapiness and lonliness on my part. i stayed for so long in the relationshiop because i thought it better for the children to have their father around . my daughter is now 15 1/2 and lives with me and my son is 18 and away at uni. i have met and fallen in love with a man whom i want to marry. i introduced this man into my daughter's life gradually. and she has been ok about the situation - but now that she knows that it is serious and that we are likely to marry - she has said that she doesnt want him staying with us. i feel at a complete loss as to what to do - i cant risk my relationship with my daughter, but i also want to be with this man. can anyone offer advice?

Have you talked to your daughter about why she doesn't want him around? How long have you been with your DP? If you are both in love then I'm sure that he will be happy to move really slowly so that your DD has time to get used to the situation. She is at a difficult age, be patient.
