Are you thinking about introducing him to the kids just because? Then no.

Thinking about marriage? Then yes, slowly and in as easy a way as possible.

I’ve never told them. But, their dad started telling them I have one a year ago (he’s very bitter and has been trying to get the kids against me). At that time, I was just dating another in a serious relationship.

Wait a minute.
You've been dating a guy for two years.
And a year ago their dad told them about a guy you weren't serious about.
Is this the same guy, or two different guys?

Was he your AP?

Tell them you’re dating first, then the meeting should be casual, short, and something they like doing. I’d do an outing for ice cream, a few hours at a park, or something like that. I suggest doing something on neutral ground (not at home), and make sure you’ve managed the boyfriends expectations for how it will go. If he doesn’t have kids he likely will expect them to be little adults, which kids aren’t, and he might not really know how to interact with them.

Start with telling them you have been seeing someone and see what questions they have about that. Let them see you or let them know you are going out on dates with them. After about 2 months mention you’d like them to meet him. Make it ice cream or a movie.

I’ve been dating a guy for almost 2 years and thinking of introducing him to my kids (10 and 6 years old). But, I don’t know how to go about it. My kids are protective of me already said that they would get upset if I had a boyfriend. Any ideas?
