My dad's new girlfriend has recently moved in with him, to our family home ( my stepmum of 30 years died almost 2 years ago). They've been down to see us a couple of times as I've recently had twins but am thinking of when we next go to see them. Obviously as it's the home I grew up in I treat it like home - bung the kettle on and make everyone a cuppa etc, etc. Just wondering whether this is now going to look weird/presumptious to her if I carry on as usual as it's now her home or as if I expect to be waited on if I don't. Probably overthinking as it's all a bit emotional for me as everything in the house is exactly the same as before my stepmum died. Also, I want to go up and put flowers on the grave for the anniversary but don't really then want to go home see all new girlfriend's stuff everywhere on that day but don't really know what to do - can't really leave the flowers and scarper as it's a 5 hour round trip . I do like her so that isn't the issue. Any thoughts or anyone been in similar situations with a parent's new partner?
