<human>: My girlfriend is fantastic. I love her to bits. She loves me. We have been going out now for 9 months and all is going well. She suffers with depression and has some issues. We have been talking about taking things further. She has 2 children with 2 different dads. One was 3 year relationship and the 2nd child she actually married the father, who turned out to be a complete narcissistic sociopath and they are now divorced. She just told me today she is struggling with the fact that she's never going to have the perfect family. She said without being horrible that I can't offer her that now as it is too late. She wanted kids with one person and have a lovely happy family life. It's true! I can't give her that. I have said to her that we can still have a perfect family life. I do have a great relationship with the kids and with her. 

I am trying to understand how she can really get over this. It is like she is grieving the fact that she can't have this perfect family life now. I have asked her if she does not want the relationship if she feels it cant go forward. She said no, she still wants me, but she doesn't know when she will get over these issues. But hey, I am a patient and loyal guy so I will wait. Reddit, what is going on and what can help her to get over these issues?
