New partner

[Whatadayyyy]

I am at the point of hopefully introducing new partner to my 2 x ds soon. I have asked new partner (who doesn’t have any kids of his own) how he feels about meeting them. He basically says he wants to spend more time with me so yea he wants to meet them. When I ask how he feels about it he says it’s up to me. Am I wrong in thinking he should maybe be showing more of an interest? Like he should be saying yea I’d love to meet them and get to know them?

How new?

He is prepared to meet them and make an effort. He doesn't have to enjoy it. Why would he enjoy meeting random children and feeling pressure to get along with them

Maybe he doesn't want to be too invested in them until after they've met him a few times in case they don't like him/you decide it didn't go well.

If he was too enthusiastic you might interpret that as a red flag...why is he so keen to meet kids he doesn't know yet?

I think it sounds like he's giving you your place.

a year

Thank you for the quick replies. This is all new for me. You’re right tho, maybe I am just over thinking it and expecting too much this early on

Is this the one who wants a baby?

He hasn't got children he probably doesn't want to put too much pressure on the situation.

He isn't framing everything in how will this effect my children 🤷‍♀️

Hi, I’m in a similar situation with my new partner, but I wouldn’t overthink it. People who don’t have their own kids often don’t understand how big a deal it is, but that doesn’t mean he’s not interested . He may also feel very nervous. It may depend also on whether he knows lots of other children etc. I actually think it’s good that he’s looking to you to make the decisions. Hope it goes well.

I think his response is fine , just go with the glue and don't put any pressure on anyone .
