This is, of course, a personal decision. But please, please, whatever you decide, put your child before ANY new man or relationship. My brothers and I were punished because our parents didn`t put us before their significant others and their relationships with them; your daughter deserves to be put first. All the kudos in the world to you for having a great friendship with her dad! That will mean the world to her! :)

I agree with the other ladies. You shouldnt force it. You dont want the desire for a mate to interfere with the care of your child or have someone around your child that shouldnt be. But if you have found someone that fits well in your life and is going to be a great stepfather than go ahead. But please dont let your daughter get involved until it is solid (near marriage). But i am not sure if you are asking this question because you are concerned about the relationship of your ex or having a new person around your daughter. If it is the ex than he is not a factor. But you should consider your daughter.

I agree with everyone else`s comments. I will say one thing though, PLEASE be sure you know the person you bring around your daughter!! You hear it WAYYY to much that women meet men and the guy turns out to be a pedophile or something horrible like that. I think especially with little girls, be extremely cautious. A little girl`s innocence is the most precious thing in the world and must be protected above anything else.

Like the other ladies said...it`ll happen someday, so don`t force the issue. But I wouldn`t bring the new guy around your child for a while. Like googie said, you don`t want them to get attached and then have something go wrong. But if you are ready to date now, I would say go for it!

I think it depends on you and if you find the right person...I personally divorced my first husband when my daughter was 4 mths and I didn`t get in to a relationship till she was 4...I didn`t want to confuse her or have different men coming in and out of her life. Her father isn`t involved so I didn`t want her to get `attached` and then have it not work out. I met her stepdad when she was just turning 4 and we`ve been together for almost 6 years now. So it`s really a tough decision. I would say that if you want to keep it casual then don`t have your `dates` around the baby but if you meet someone and are serious about them then for sure they should be involved in your little ones life. I`m happy for you that you are friends with your ex and that he`s apart of your babys life....that`s wonderful. good Luck
