New relationship and xmas

[Twinkletwinklebluecow]

I'm three months into a relationship, all going well. He has met my teenagers briefly when at mine but I haven't met his young daughter yet.

Christmas hasn't been brought up. I would love to spend part of it with him but am assuming that is off the cards as I haven't met his daughter, he's likely to be spending part of it with his ex and child, part with elderly parents in poor health and working the rest (NHS). I feel quite flat about it and don't know how to broach the subject. I don't know what is normal in a newish relationship with children to consider.

I would arrange to see him on Christmas Eve or Boxing day. I wouldn't want my children to spend christmas with a virtual stranger (to them).

I'd say even up to a few years in, it's usual to not see each other, on Christmas day, if one of you has younger children.

Ask him if he’s free for a few hours over Christmas, see what he says.

Would it be too early to ask at this stage?

Would it be too early to ask at this stage?

I think so. Too much, too soon. You haven't even met his daughter, and he may not want that to happen for quite some time, which is smart. I certainly wouldn't involve my child this early into a relationship.

Yeah I think it's too early as well
Ask him to do something on new year instead
