Yes, but she'll probably be a shiksa, so her opinion won't count.

I had dinner with her and the ex and my fiance last Friday.

I know. We're weird. But I like her.

I have never had such a dinner and am curious about how it came about. My rule of thumb is never to let the exclusive club of people who have seen me naked hold any kind of meeting. In my imagination, the temptation to talk about sex must be overwhelming.

There's nothing weird about that. And it's good that you all can get along with each other -- it certainly will make things easier for your daughter.

I'd forgotten, but your mom wrote a note to get you out of gym class, didn't she?

You must not spend much time in the sauna or hot tub, yes?

My ex and I agreed when we separated that no one would meet the Brazenette until that someone had met the other parent first.

He's been seeing this girl for about 6 months and seems to really like her. I expect he intends to have her around his family at Christmas time. He mentioned that he'd like to introduce the Brazenette to her sometime before Christmas, and would I like to have dinner.

So we did. Thai. It was delicious.

That seems a bit anal at first, but is really quite brilliant. Well done. She is lucky to have adults as parents.

Agreed, but the $64,000 question is what to do when dad's new SO is creepy/hostile/dangerously flaky. Discovery is easy; it's dispute resolution that's hard.

I suppose that's true. Except that I kind of trust my ex and think he's a way better dad than that. He'd never want to introduce the Brazenette to someone completely unsuitable.

Nineteen years later and it seems that every post is either the setup for or culmination of a Seinfeld reference. I wonder if they knew they were writing the Moby Dick of 21st century amateur comedy.

Unsuitable for what? Step-parenting (or the functional equivalent, i.e. seriously dating someone with children) is a complex dynamic and there are plenty of persons who are decent spousal (or dating) material and yet not quite cut out for step parenting or some aspects of it. that said, 3 to what 1463 said.

This may be so, but I suspect that Penske would've made his hottub post even without the benefit of a Seinfeldian reference.
