How soon?

[BiscoffSundae]

Not dating but just thinking for the future, what is the soonest you would introduce a man you are dating to your children? And does the age of the children make a difference say teen vs toddler

6 months as a minimum. I wouldn't want to introduce my children to someone who isn't hanging around. So I'd need ti be sure it was a long term commitment on both sides first.

Good question!!

I've been mostly single 7 years. Done a lot of dating my DD is unaware of.

Introduced her to one partner after 9 months, unfortunately it didn't work out but I think deep down I always had a niggle that it wasn't 100% right

I'm currently dating someone for 3-4 months and I'm much more comfortable with the idea. He still hasn't met my Dd but more because i feel it's "not the done thing"

Thanks both I guess you must get quite a bit of child free time to get to 6/9 months without introducing? What if you have no/little child free time?

The very minimum of 6 months (for me anyway). I made the mistake of introducing my kids to someone after 3 months and I bitterly regret doing that. Would never do it again.
