I've been dating a mother who has a 16yo daughter, and the daughter is constantly throwing herself at me. It started out subtle, but over the last few weeks it has become less and less subtle.

I talked to the gf about it, but she's either oblivious, she wants to see how far her daughter will go, or she's a lot kinkier than I thought.

The worst part is that they live two lots down, so I cant even get away if I break up with the gf, unless I want to give up being so close to the paper mill.

Nope. When my ex remarried about 8 years ago, I gave my son permission to call him whatever he wanted, permission to love him, and permission to let whatever relationship they would have to develop organically. I told him that what what he and I had was a rock that could not be broken and neither of us should feel threatened by his mom remarrying.

All that being said.... dude is a real arse hat and my son and he don’t get along but hey..... I tried.

I see both. My ex is remarried, so i see my daughter doing fun things with step.
Im remarried, and i do a ton of things with my wifes 2 sons.
Its ALL good. Its about the kids and the kids know who their real parents are, and love them regardless

The boyfriend thing is a little different...I expected to be asked or approve certain activities before ex was remarried..(and daughter was younger)

Most who feel threatened is probabaky because they arent doing enough

Nah

At the end of the day my daughter knows who her dad is and that’s me I know she’ll never have the same love for him as she would for me. I’ll do everything I can to keep it that way while not being insecure about a potential stepdad

There’s not a damn thing you could do about it. Just be glad he is treating them with respect and love. If it were the other way around and he made my kids miserable, then me and him will do battle.

My step dad was a helluva guy though my dad was always my dad.

So no playing catch with the step dad. Just good conversation, great meals (Especially at the Village with his own personal waiter. RIP Harry.) and he was great to mom.

That is such a defeatist attitude, but sadly in most American cultures is needed.

I'd rather see that than have some guy treat my kid like shite.

It always bothers you. But you man up and deal with it constructively. Just be glad the child has plenty of positive interaction

Kid already has a strike against them given the mother/father are no longer living together...forcing the stepparent who is trying to do the right thing to be a spectator is definitely strike two.

In that hypothetical situation I think you’d rather see that kind of stuff than find out that the bf or stepdad was beating your child and treating them like shite for not being their own child. I’ve seen a few situations where there wasn’t physical abuse, but the biological children post marriage were treated better than the stepchild pre marriage, and that gets pretty fricked up

Does it (or would it) bother you to see a stepdad (or perhaps your ex's new BF) being active and affectionate with your child in the ways a typical father would be?


Assuming not troling answer
Every situation is different but if you are divorced and have children, shouldn’t you prefer that any step parent is a good person and deserving of affection from the children he is helping to raise? Would it cause some pangs of guilt or loss at times? I’m sure it would but it’s not about you but instead about your kid and what is best for them.

A child having a positive, caring adult in their lives is not a bad thing
