Single moms are far better off than married women trapped in miserable marriages. Of course you will have your struggling victim types who just want to be rescued, those women will soon be single again if they don't change their perception of life.
when that child gets older and says "you are not my real dad" after all you have done for that child and mother, it will be too late.
And it will most likely happen -- the child will throw it in your face so you really need to be a saint. If you show anger when the child defies you by telling you you're not his father when you've provided much of the support, it's only going to make things worse and the child will know your Achille's tendon.

Step parenting is a no win situation and is often one of the grounds for breakup.
Let's be honest. The kid does come first. And I know I was that kid and my mom was single. I was a complete dick at age seven to any dude that came around but what worked for me was to show the child you are a man and what I mean by that is do manly things with the child. I mean my stepfather who also passed away showed me things that was in the medical field that he invented and he was number one in the country for doing his job. So do that he proved himself worthy by doing that to me. If it is a girl that is a child good luck
