To think that my ex should have told me he was introducing our 2 year old to his new partner?

I have a two year old DD with my ex. Had no idea he was in a relationship until my daughter started being dropped home in a woman's car who I have now found out is his girlfriend. Obviously have no issue with him being in a relationship but just feeling pissed off that I wasn't made aware out of courtesy that this woman would be in my child's life and she would be dropping her home. AIBU?

In the same way that he can make no demands or expectations over you dating and who you involve in your child’s life, nor can you with him.

I haven't made any demands, just saying it would have been nice to be made aware instead of having some random woman show up to my house

Sorry, OP, during his contact time there’s not much get a say about. If he has a girlfriend she’s bound to meet your toddler,

I don't have an issue with her meeting DD, just a bit annoying that the first I knew of this woman was when she rocked up at my house dropping my daughter home. It's also I worry that I know nothing about her so have no idea what kind of person is around my toddler every week

Annoying, yes, but ultimately outside of your control.

It's annoying, but I don't think there I'd much you can do to stop it

What would you have said if he had told you first though?

You trusted his judgement enough to have a child with him so then you would have to trust him with this
