New relationship - when to meet friends and family

[RunsforCake14]

I've been divorced 3 years after a 20+ year long marriage. So I've not got much experience of dating.
Had a few dates over the last couple of years that went nowhere. Then 6 months ago I met someone and we hit it off straight away. All has been going well. We see each other about once a week.

All my friends know about him and he's met some. But only when we've bumped into them in the pub or out and about.

I haven't met any of his friends. And I'm not sure he's even told any of them about me. Last night he was out at a friend's wedding do. I was home alone. The invite was for him only - fair enough as it was sent out a few months ago. But it's not the first time he's been out with friends and not invited me along.

I asked and he said it was just people from work so I'd find it boring. Probably true but should he ask me rather than just assume I don't want to go? Is 6 months too early in a relationship to worry about these things?

Not sure what you're expecting here? You weren't invited, you've been together a few months...what more is there to say?

I think it's a bit unusual TBH. Can you ask him specifically if you can meet them?

Sounds like he sees you as a casual, fun weekend girlfriend. So no need for him to mention you to his friends or invite you to things ect.

You've only been together a few months. Just enjoy what you have. All that'll come in good time if the relationship goes somewhere

I agree with Sequence... it's a little unusual after 6 months of seeing each other. How much do you know about him? Do you see him at his house or always out?

Sorry to have to ask, but are you sure he isn't married/in another relationship?

We usually go out. Or he comes to my house. I've been to his place a few times.
I wasn't expecting an invite to last night's party but when I (jokingly) said "take me as your plus 1" he told me I would just find it boring with work people. So I asked if any of them knew about me and he kind of brushed off the question.
I've asked before if he'd told anyone about me and again he avoids answering.

I just feel a bit confused. On one hand everything is going well but sometimes I do feel like I'm only there to fill in the gaps when he's not out socialising with his mates.

Sequence He's never been married. Very definitely lives alone, judging by the state of his house. Only a couple of long term relationships.

So I'm thinking maybe he doesn't want to introduce me to friends/family just yet as they've probably seen him with a few women over the years.

I'm trying just to relax and enjoy it and see what happens. It just got to me today when I saw lots of Facebook photos of him having a good time last night.

Can I assume that when you see each other once a week that you have sex? Do you ever have a date without sex? After six months I would have thought you'd be seeing each other more than once a week so I wonder if you've been zoned as an FWB?

That said I didn't introduce my recent ex to my siblings until six months in and no friends met him during our 9 months together. Equally I didn't meet his.

Beenthere we occasionally meet for just a coffee. But often it's an evening out then back to my house. Both of us have busy lives - work, children (me only) and we're both very active in a chosen sport. So we meet when we can.

I wondered about the FWB but then he's just spent a fortune on me for my birthday. And he talks about doing things together in the future, like going on holiday.
