It depends on the situation. Is the guy marrying a 22 year old divorcee with three kids? Or is he marrying a mid 30 year old woman who divorced for legitimate reasons? One is a schmuck, the other isn't.

My uncle in Lake Charles, mid 1960’s, married a wonderful woman with 8 kids. He had 3 of his own. They then had 1 together. Perfect “Yours, Mine, and Ours” deal. Happiest family I’ve ever seen. He put all 12 through school, and retired from Pitney-Bowes and also retired Methodist minister.

It would depend on how many baby daddies she has.

While I was never put in that situation, personally, I don't think I could do it. However, both my father and father-in-law are men who did. Both stepped in to provide a stable father figure for children who needed one (my dad to my brother and sister; my FIL to my wife and her brother).

Today, my brother and sister have no contact whatsoever with their biological father and wholeheartedly consider my dad their dad as well.

Same for my wife. She hasn't spoken to her biological father in nearly 20 years and has no inclination to do so ever again. As far as she is concerned her step-father (my FIL) is her "dad"

It takes a selfless person to come in and be a needed father figure to kids that aren't his.

Good for them. Kids need someone else in their lives.

Not everyone is an uber selfish prick.

knew a guy from LSU ls that did that, he was a confirmed lifelong bachelor and sophisticated international playboy that refused to commit or have a steady gf all through school, was married to a woman with 5-6 kids within two years of finishing law school

It’s easy to have that idea when you’re young. When you’re older and most women your age are already married with children, your options are limited unless you are willing to date women much younger. That’s fun and all, but doesn’t always lead to a lasting relationship.

My wife and I both had kids from our first marriages. Never been a problem having a blended family. Neither she nor I were ever desperate for companionship from the opposite sex post divorce. I should add that we knew one another from our younger days and both her kids and mine were raised right. Can not deal with disrespectful little brats.

My aunt had three boys and a new born baby girl. Her husband just suddenly died. This was back in the early 60's so I don't know how she got along (I wasn't born yet). She met a guy a few years later and they got married. This guy took on all those kids and they were a hand full. He always had my respect.

I knew a lady who was bringing up three very lovely girls. All of them had hair of gold, like their mother, the youngest one in curls

She met a man, I seem to recall his name was Brady, who was busy with three boys of his own. They were four men, living all together, yet they were all alone

Then there was one day that this lady met this fellow...and they knew that it was much more than a hunch. This group, they somehow formed a family, and bought a house in the San Fernando Valley and pretty much lived happily ever after. They had a live in maid, met Joe Namath, vacationed in Hawaii, and had their shitty cousin Oliver stay for a summer and that's when it all went downhill because the father turned out to be gay and contracted AIDS and died

Anyways the moral of the story is don't have your shitty cousin over for the summer

I have children from my first marriage. My wife had children when we met. Prior to meeting my wife, I dated only women without kids. Who knows why it worked out that I married someone with kids. Maybe we had more in common. Maybe it just didn't work out with the others. I certainly didn't set out to marry someone with kids. It was a second marriage for both of us. It works well for us.

It boggles my mind how people worry about what other people do to the point that they have to express their opinions in public forums. Does OP need some sort of validation?? Is he insecure? I don't know and really I don't care, because I don't worry about other people's business.

I was fricking a hot redhead once who had 3 kids. Not gonna lie I fell in love with her, awesome girl and fire in bed. Best pussy I ever had. Couldn’t date her though I couldn’t accept that responsibility of her kids.

Looking back kinda regret not trying but probably was a smart decision

none because I don’t constantly worry about other people’s lives. Why does it matter what other people do as long as they leave me the frick alone

Yeah...you aren't projecting your own insecurities at all

Here's a better question: why would you even care?
