Is it generally accepted that the SM won't go to birthday parties?
I'm not actually a SM as I'm not married to my DP but we've been together for 2 years and living together just shy of 6 months - all quite new - but I get on well with DPs children so far!
The youngest is turning 11 next month and his birthday party has been arranged by his mum, all invites gone out etc. It seems to be just accepted that I won't be going and I wondered how 'normal' that was.
I know the most important thing is the child having a good day and I wouldn't want to make DP's ex feel uncomfortable if I was there but at the moment I feel like the only child at school not invited to the party when everyone else is talking about it
