[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  He is visiting for Thanksgiving and broke plans with his 5 year old grandson to go see this skank.  That made the decision very easy for me.  I will not be meeting her or friending her on FB.  I told him this to his face.  Despicable.[/quote]

Yikes.  It sounds like you've been bottling your frustration and anger and exploded.  It sucks that he bailed on his grandson, but if you have been silent up until now, he might not understand why he has been elevated to public enemy #1 for the infraction.  TELL HIM.  If you can say things in anger, you can just tell him the truth -- you don't want to get involved with his lady friends until the relationship is more settled.  There's no judgement involved.  My parents did the same when my brother was on a dating streak back in the day.  They stopped investing time and effort until it seemed the relationship wasn't just a passing thing.  There's nothing wrong with a passing thing, but the whole family doesn't need to be involved and you don't need to run interference between your dad and his dates.  That's gross at any age and no matter the family relationship.

Has he been single long?[/quote]
