Maybe the dating world has changed, but today all 3 of those things would constitute deal breakers for girls I was seeing. Having one hidden kid would be enough of a deception to end some relationships, let alone 4 kids, being nearly 10 years older than thought to be, and having a hidden name. Would you have stayed with him if it happened to an older and wiser steph McKenzie (I assume that's your name :))

I don't know if I would stay with him now, if I was doing it all over again with my current level of wisdom. But, it wouldn't be because he hid having kids, or his age. After the initial surprise and being slightly stunned regarding those things, I was actually okay with them. It would be other things about him that would probably send me looking elsewhere now....personality things, mental health things, background things....he wouldn't pass a background check with me now. :) But, I'd still be okay with the reveal of the kids and his real age and name, interestingly. I know other women would probably feel differently. I'm remarkably laid back about most things. When I was a teacher, my students once told me I was the only teacher who never yelled at them. It's got to be something more drastic than hidden kids and not revealing your true age to upset me. :)
