Long time lurker but avid reader and really need some help with this one.
Husband died of cancer 3 years ago and I now have a new partner. We've being dating for almost a year and intend on him moving into my house early next year. DD1 (age 27) lives at home and is angry with me. DD2 lives locally and is very supportive. Partner has DD and DS and they live with ex wife and are ok with the relationship.
DD1 doesn't want to interact with new partner, hates when he is around, does not want to eat with us and flipped completely when I accidentally mixed up some of her laundry with his.
how can I help her come to terms with the relationship? I know she misses her dad and I do too but I want my new relationship to work and for my DD to be happy.
Sorry for the long post. Any views welcome
