Hey ladies, so basically I've been seeing this guy for 3 months we both have kids from previous relationships (my DS doesn't see his father, his father's choice) and he has 2 kids. They broke up 6 months ago. He still goes on days out with his ex and the 2 kids who are 6&9 which is nice for the kids I do get that but he has gone on holiday abroad with his ex and the kids, they booked it together 2 days ago and he told me their only going together because its the kids first time abroad and they wanted to experience it together. He also mentioned he'd stay over in her house when it's the kids birthday and Christmas eve/day. Do yous think this is weird?? He keeps telling me nothings going to happen but I'm uncomfortable with the whole situation to the point I'm thinking about ending things with him.

Its a no from me. How confusing for the kids too. Its nice they get on and happy to do things as a family but this is too far. They are no longer together as a family so its not what I would consider normal behaviour.

No, why?

Scottish schools have just broken up for the holidays, which was why I asked. If you're not in Scotland then he's taken his kids on holiday during term-time, hasn't he?

I would let this one go OP.

He got with you far too soon after a messy break up situation. If it’s true he was cheated on then he didn’t really choose to end things and he could very much still love her and want her to want him back.

I would worry he got with me to make his ex jealous to punish her for the cheating and maybe get her to fight for him.

As a PP said, you can end it nicely saying he needs to sort out the separation first and you are giving him space to do so.
