Should I date a divorced man with kids?

I just started dating this guy who I can totally see myself falling for, but he has some baggage. He recently divorced his wife, but they remain in contact and are “friends” I guess, because they have two small children together. I’m not sure how I will feel about this constant contact with his ex once my feelings for him develop a bit more.. I’ve never dated a divorced man, nor a guy with children, so I’m not sure what I’m in for..

While I really enjoy spending time with this person and I feel a very strong connection with him, I’m not happy with his situation…but I constantly want to be around him. Also, he seems to care for me a great deal, which I love. Should I just wait and see what happens, or cut my losses early and nix the whole idea? I’m afraid that once I fall for him, it will hurt me so much to have to look at his children, which are a constant reminder of his past with someone else… I’m so torn! Any advice?
