Having been there and done that, I've been with three different guys and they all have children (with two of them, I've never met the kids; it wasn't necessary). My ex and his daughter's mother didn't have a relationship at all in the beginning b/c she didn't wanna deal with him. After almost a year, she felt guilty about him not knowing he had a daughter and she decided to introduce the two of them. At first she and I were cool, but later our "friendship" soured mainly b/c he acted funny (I don't wanna get into details).

My current bf has two kids, a son and daughter. His son lives in his neighborhood, but his daughter lives in Minnesota. I encouraged him to go visit her for Christmas, which was also his birthday. He did go (by bus) and they enjoyed their time together. He wants to go back and visit again soon and bring his son with him once he saves up plane fare for the two of them.
