[quote=Anonymous]I’d give it time; it is probably too soon. You can date this guy without integrating him into your family just yet. While it’s true your kids can’t veto your ability to date, I think you need to respect their feelings and they shouldn’t be required to spend time with this guy. They can know you’re dating and you can talk about your BF and answer any questions they have...this gives them they time and space to process things and get used to the idea. Ultimately, your kids are your priority, and while they’re young, their comfort takes precedence over your romantic life. Also - make sure it’s not just jealousy. They could be getting above about this particular guy. I had that reaction to one man my mom dated while I was young, and couldn’t put it into words; I was just uncomfortable around him. My mom “got it” and stopped dating him. I loved my stepfather right away (though I realize that doesn’t always happen).[/quote]
