[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I divorced 3 years ago and have dinner once a week with exDH and DD. Sometimes one of us cooks, sometimes we go out, but we make it a point to have a family meal. I do not invite my significant other as this is DDs time with her parents.

I would never date someone that doesn’t understand that while I’m divorced, this is my DDs family and her parents get along.

Yes, we’re also one of those families that still does holidays together.[/quote]

+1 and healthiest for the kid(s). Anyone dating the dad has to understand that. When it is time, ti will be time. But not getting in the middle of that is the right thing to do. The kids have enough to deal with.

Your DD is going to be in for a world of hurt when you and DH do get an SO. Ther'es getting along for the kids, and there's   creating a lie, and this has nothing to do with putting the kids first.[/quote]

I do have a SO who DD has met many times and gets along with. But he is not her father, and she deserves to have time with just her parents. There is no rude awakening, she knows we’re divorced. We just choose to put her first.[/quote]

He can still be her dad without pretending you and he are still a couple. She deserves to have time with her dad. She deserves to have her parents  behave like decent people when they get together to celebrate things. She does not deserve a mom who wants to keep tabs on dad by pretending to have her best interest at heart.[/quote]

I'm sorry, but a child is not going to think their parents are still a couple because they have a meal together once a week. [/quote]
