Should I hold it against her that she neglected to tell me she has kids?

Question - (15 December 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 15 December 2008)
A male United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I have been in a relationship with a wonderful woman for six months now. I am very much in love with her and want to take the next step in asking her to marry me. We are in a long distance relationship now. We communicate daily and never run out of things to say. We have had bad days as any relationship will. I am sure she is the one for me, but I have one question in my mind which is holding me back. One day I found out she had been married previously before and had two kids. Well she had neglected to tell me this. Im not sure why she would have held back this information, because it seems it would be something I would need to know. Well I have accepted that fact, and she explained she thought that it would scare me away. Is this something I should hold against her? It is the only doubt in my mind, and I hope that its just paranoia.

A female reader, Emilysanswers United Kingdom +, writes (15 December 2008):

I can understand it from her point of view. Perhaps she just liked you so much she didn't want to risk being rejected by you.

Tell her that you are hurt by it and that you want to know if there is ANYTHING else that she has been hiding from you now so you can get it out of the way. If you give her a chance to come clean and you find out she's lied later on then yes there is something not right going on.

This lie was bad but very understandable from her side.

If you think you can forgive her then do it and move on from this.

Good Luck!! xx
