If we're talking on the phone and his daughters call, he will get off the phone with me and talk to them. He sends them things all of the time, they come up and visit him. I mean the relationship is grand with his children. Help a sista out!
MEN, please feel free to respond too.

Ok, that helps.
Well, here is my 2 cents (and some change)...
I am going to assume that this man have been "living and doing right" for a long while and not just for a month or two.
So with that said, ask yourself could you see yourself married to this man!
Hold up, I'm not crazy *lol* or moving to fast, but hear me out.....
If you do decide to pursue this relationship and things get REALLY serious, will you be willing to accept his past and all that comes along with it? I friend of mine dated a man in a similiar situation. Although she wasn't to comfortable with his past(he has a child and an ex-wife), she figured that as time went by she would feel better about it. But she never did. So she wasted 3 years of her life and this man's life.
Also, i know you are afraid of getting hurt, but I am quite sure he is too! (Imagine having two failed marriages under your belt and your only 31
Talk about shots to the ol' self esteem there).
So if you are ok, with it, my advice would be to al least go on one date with him and see what happens.
