Split up with partner a month ago. We still live together, have 2 kids (3 and 1) and until 2 days ago, he has been asking if we can get back together.
Yest he announced that he is taking the kids on a play date with a woman from work and her child. I asked if it was a play date or a date, he giggled and said 'yeah maybe a date, dunno, I know it's a bit soon but...' He's since backtracked and said its just a chance for kids to make a new friend, for him to make a new friend. If he'd said that in the first place, far less of a problem.
My issue isn't necessarily that he's met someone else (but that is odd given that it's so recent, we're still living together, lives tied together really closely still) but what I am really upset about is that he's taking the kids and involving them in this.
Just to be clear, this is a guy who has only ever taken his kids to his parents' house and to the local park by himself, mainly after me suggesting it. And this feels a bit like playing super dad - look at me and my lovely kids, aren't I fab.
Or am I missing something?
