By all means sleep with him, if that's what you desire, but keep the children well out of it during this early phase.
Becoming intimate with a man only increases your chances of becoming emotionally involved with him. If you choose to do it this way and if you both decide you have a future together, then ensure the children are "on board" with it all too. Do it sensibly. Yes, there are others involved: the children to consider.
Single mothers keep your knickers on until you know he is prepared to accept the full package.
Talk to your children. Are they happy for you to be dating a man(not their father). Listen to what they have to say. Do they like this new man in their lives? Do they feel safe around him.
When I first came onto the forums, I was made aware of your plight through the threads you created. I came to your defence.
I've seen and read enough Pedro. You have allowed your condition to consume you, define you. You need to start focusing outward of yourself. We all have our own battles and I do acknowledge your road has been tough, but you need to pick yourself up and look around you. Start taking steps to help yourself. Cut down on your alcohol consumption. A lethal cocktail combined with your medication. Exercise. Eat well. By all means confide in friends and family when you are unwell, but start taking some responsibility for simply bad learned behaviours. Right some wrongs if you can. Make yourself a better person. You will feel more in control of your life once you make up your mind to take more positive steps.
I have empathy for you but am tired of you spilling forth with your self-consumed tripe on a continual basis.
I was a big fan of the movie "The Big Chill" when it first came out and remember rushing out to buy their soundtrack music tape....yep, tapes in those days...
