So_Very_Confused agony auntand if you two end up together the kids and your ex have to call you auntie....

shades of "I am my own grandpa"

how long have you and kid's daddy been apart? were you ever married?

how long have you been dating kid's great uncle?

can you elaborate on "sometimes I hear from him and sometimes I don't?"

the fact that you ASK if you are being played means you know that it's a good possibility... why is that does uncle have a reputation as a player/user?

Ciar agony auntThere are a number of reasons to keep a new date under wraps, and one of them is to keep one's options open. In this case I think dating a family member is a pretty good reason to not want to advertise it.

You may not be related by blood but he is family and it is pretty tacky for you two to be involved romantically.

MsSadie agony auntYes.

Not just because he's your ex's uncle, but because of the circumstances you underlined.

We need more information then you are stating. You sometimes hear from him is not enough for me to say yes or no.

You need to ask yourself if this is a relationship worth pursuing. Is he the kind of guy that will love you and his great nieces or nephews like is own.

I wouldn't want anyone in the family knowing either until I knew if this is what we all want. This could open a huge Pandora's box.

You need to have a serious discussion with him. Ask him where this relationship is going. I personally would not sit around and wait for him.

Good luck
