[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not until you're divorced FFS!

And the boyfriend has to actually be divorced too. 100% divorced. Not "separated".

It really depends on the circumstances, but I see very little benefit to introducing. Are you planning to insert this person into their home lives and make them spend time with this person? [b]Expect pushback.[/b][/quote]

Why? Unless you were a total jerk to their other parent, most teenagers can understand that relationships end, and new ones start.

I'd want to be sure my kids had time to process the split, but once it's done, it's done. Expecting your parents to not move on is unhealthy in and of itself.[/quote]

Feel free to move on but don’t expect them to live with your boyfriend. Just like you don’t want your child’s boyfriend shacking up at your house.

Don’t rotate people through your life.

Nobody wants a new dude in their life. You are welcome to have one but children don’t want to be around them.

Why are you assuming a rotation? OP said this is the first and only person they would be meeting, and it sounds like "serious" here means the BF/GF is interested in participating in all aspects of their joint lives.[/quote]

Lol because they aren’t even divorced yet. 1st and only… you can’t promise that…. Plus add dad’s girlfriends, that’s multiple people.

Of course she thinks they will live happily ever after but I doubt it and I doubt he agrees. If it’s serious get engaged.[/quote]
