[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who does not have kids but is dating a divorced dad, this is very interesting to me. I’ve met his kids several times, the first time several months ago. They know I’m his girlfriend. The other day he was musing that he wasn’t sure whether his ex was aware of me yet - he seems to figure the kids or a mutual friend might mention it. It doesn’t even seem to have crossed his mind to have told her first, or at all. [/quote]

Not a good sign that he didn't think it through how a new girlfriend would affect his kids. Just saying. [/quote]

He thought how it would affect his kids. I think the question of the post is how to whether to tell the ex in advance. We'd been dating for six months before I met the kids. We discussed how I should first meet them, he discussed it with them in advance. He did not, however, tell his ex that the kids would be meeting me.  Is it really a must for the ex to know the kids will be meeting someone the father is dating? Isn't that for him to decide/handle?[/quote]
