I don't think you're being unrealistic at all.

Hello and Welcome, HappyD!


I understand your situation, as I can relate. My daughter also spends every other weekend with dad, just as your DD does. So that means I have DD pretty much for two weeks straight at a time, without seeing my SO for dates. You are 100 percent right to think why spend time away from your daughter when you are not even sure about the guy you are dating in the early stages. I totally agree!

I agree. The boundaries are YOURS to set, not the guys. And I think its perfectly reasonable and allows ample time to get to know someone :)
