Wonder if anyone can give me a wee bit of advice.
Started seeing someone recently who has his 15 year old daughter living with him and his 8 yr old lives with her mum but sees her dad every single week.
The 15 yr old has taken on the role of 'mother' and enjoys this new status. Her relationship with her mother isn't good.
Her dad broached the subject of him getting a girlfriend and his daughter went crazy saying no way will he have one and if he did she would "make her life hell"!
So we are conducting this new relationship secretly.
My children know about him and are fine with it.
My question is, how long do you think is acceptable to keep sneaking around behind his daughters back?
Her dad isn't keen to rock the boat considering the awful time his daughter has had with her mum and I sympathise but I'm not comfortable with the secrecy.....
Just to add, so as not to drop feed, I have known the guy and his daughters for a few years so I wouldn't be a stranger. (Not sure that makes a difference)
