You didn't break up his marriage, but he definitely did. Even if his wife had affairs, and even if it was because he was unkind to her, that means he didn't make his marriage enough of a priority. In fact, he coped with it by turning to a girl who is young enough to be his child and getting her pregnant while he is still married. There are so many red flags here that the only truly good answer I can give you is that you would be smart to reconsider having this relationship at all. Luckily for you, his family is forcing you to open your eyes and look at the situation, but you might still not see what you should be seeing - that your relationship with this man isn't a healthy one.

I hope things work out as you'd like them to, though it'll be hard to get there. I've mentioned some red flags that I hope you'll look at. Here's one more that is a BIG one, too. At your age, you're just starting in your career. You'll be at the peak of your career right around the time he's going to be ready to retire. Some questions I hope you'll ask yourself (whenever applicable): - How will things be when he has no work responsibilities and you still have to go to work every day? Will he go off and do his own thing? Will you be the ball and chain that keeps him from travelling, starting a hobby career, or whatever his goals are? - Your child will be reaching college age as he's getting ready to retire. Will you both be able to put away for college AND retirement? - Will he resent you if you want to spend money and have fun at a time when he needs to putting away money for retirement? - How will your energy and motivation levels work together or conflict as the years pass when there's such a large age gap?
