Today, I took my new girl out on a date after work. Ten minutes later, my ex-wife, her new boyfriend and my daughter showed up at the same restaurant and decided a double date would be fun. My ex lives an hour away. FML

Today, my dad introduced me to my half-sister. He'd only recently found out that he had another daughter by another woman, and had only just met her. She and I have been in the same class in school for the past three years. FML

Betrayal
Today, I was picking up my daughter from my ex-husband's house and his new girlfriend was there. I said to my daughter that it was time to leave and she clung to his girlfriend and said, "Mommy, I don't want to leave." She wasn't talking to me. FML

Today, my ex came back into my life, professing his love and begging for another chance. This begging act ended rather suddenly once he remembered I have a daughter. FML

Time to tell him to get a grip. It isn't fair on you not your daughter. How will he like it if you introduced your daughter to various men and saying 'this your new daddy?'

You should definitely set some ground rules. Like he has to date her at least "x" amount of time before she meets your daughter.

Jeez when I was young my mother never even let me meet her boyfriends unless things got serious so I wouldn't get attached. Time for you to sit down and give your ex-husband a talk about boundaries and doing what's right for your daughter.

When she has a "new daddy" later on in life he will blame himself

That poor little girl. She must be so devastated when her "new mommy" disappears. It must also be really confusing because she already has a mother and afraid her biological mother is being replaced.

How dare he call them her "new mommy?!" Even if it was a woman he was going to spend the rest of his life with, YOU and YOU ALONE are and will always be her mom. Time to have a long talk with him.
