And I can see why bn'b would want to give her ex a bit of time to get used to the idea that his kid is going to meet one of bn'b's friends. The bottom line is that she is wrestling with the difficult balance between what is optimal for her and what is optimal for her kid. Giving the ex a bit of leeway for a bit of time on the issue of sleeping arrangements when his daughter is around makes sense to me in this context.
Of course, this assumes that the ex is not a complete dick -- I am pretty sure that bn'b has indicated that this is the case.

Of course. But it's so much easier to say something nasty! Why bother thinking the nuances through? That stuff is for wimps.
