I would suggest that you postpone the wedding and thet the two of you go to a marriage and family counselor. You have some major issues to work out between the two of you, and you need to address them. Kid & ex are factors, but the bigger thing is your feelings of distrust and her method opf handling them--going out with the ex doesn't really add to the trust level. You and your wife need to be in agreement on handling kid and ex stuff, and to truly respect, understand and protect each other's feelings. <P>Issues almost always get worse after marriage, not better. It is much, much preferable to work on things now, versus starting the marraige off on the wrong foot.<P>Good luck.
