Dear Gistmania Ambassadors,

I am writing to you for a relationship advice. I am in a happy place in my relationship with my soul mate. We have been dating for years and have been living together for four years. He is in the midst of building a fabulous home and totally has me in his future plans, and I love it all.

The only problem is that, recently he told me he will be having his teenage son come living with us full time. The boy has a number of issues that they fail to address, like obesity, constant bed-wetting, lack of manners and poor hygiene. How do I put my feelings of happiness on the back burner or try to work out the new living arrangement with a boy of new problem issue?

I am hoping you can provide me with some help on this one.

Assuming he is your son.(biological son)... How would u have help solve your son problem? Or how would u have cope with him with all these issue u listed here? Plz my dear u are just making some excuses ... Just tell your Man U don't like his son and will not be happy to live on the same house with him.. .. This is what u called issues hisss very soon u will become a mother ... How about u use him to learn on how to deal with this kind of issues ? If u truly love your man you most also love his son your step son and assist your guy to solve this problem ...

You have already shown the type of woman you are.I wish your man realizes the kind of woman you are before it is too late for him.

The Poster nowhere referred to herself as engaged to the man.
Possibly why she feels overwhelmed by the plan.

Hearing you exist in one future isn't enough. Women need a more concrete proof.
Of course she loves the man, and will transfer the love unto the son.

But proper training will be easily done when she becomes a "WIFE" not a woman cohabiting with a man.
If she becomes a wife, then she can discuss with the Man on ways to ensure the child gets proper training.

The child probably has bad manner due to the absence of a mother figure in his life.
Men tend to think providing toy, buckets of ice-cream and 5 meals in a day is enough.....but women know what their children need.

Until you become the "Wife", talk to your man, find out his reason for planning his son into the house.
Truth is.....till you become his Wife, the son has more importance in his life.......He's his blood....you're just dating.

I'd suggest you have a heart to heart talk with your man, mention the issues with the boy, suggest ways to help the boy, do not show you're scared of having the son around,
Avoid any form of confrontation, assure him you want the best for both of you.....and that includes making sure the son stays healthy now....grow with better manners.

Most importantly, Pray....God directs.

The man has seen the challenges with his son and he wants to bring him closer to him so as to groom him. What kind of a woman are you? The solution you are looking for, is to help in grooming the boy, to achieve the target result. You are just selfish and this could break your relationship with the man if not properly managed. Beside he is not married to you yet, which will make it easier to discharge you. Better be warned.
