[quote=Anonymous]In my experience this never goes well. We were both advised in the parenting class and by our lawyers to wait until after the divorce was final. Our family therapist asked us to wait until a year after the divorce was final before introducing any new SOs to the kid. I waited. My ex didn't. That didn't surprise or distress me because I was emotionally out of the marriage for 2-3 years before. She showed up at my house with my then STBX. No warning that he was bringing anyone, let alone TLOHL. I shook her hand and made small talk about a band whose t-shirt she was wearing. The problem wasn't my reaction, but the kid's. She found out the same day which happened to be the first weekend visitation of the brand new custody order in month 5 of our separation. And then, she had a bad reaction to the next four gfs who were also TLOHL for the few weeks or months they dated while we waited for the divorce to be finalized through the first year. [/quote]
