What do I say when I meet other woman?

Alright, I am really trying to be very understanding about this co-parenting thing and having the other woman around my kids half the time, but it is really hard. My son starts playing floor hockey today and my ex has just informed me that his new woman would like to go but that she isn't because she thinks its to soon. Even though I have been trying to prepare myself for this (hell our first introduction even), it hit me like a ton of bricks because 1) I am not ready to see her and 2) I don't want another woman getting close with my kids, thats my job!

 

I understand and agree with having a nice polite relationship with the new woman for the kids sake. I mean really isn't it just more people  who love and care for my children, but it still burns me up inside. I want to be the only mommy figure in my childrens eyes. My son is only 5 and my daughter is 20months so they are very innocent and really like her already.

 

Does anyone have any advice on how to get over this? I know our meeting is coming soon as the holidays are just around the corner and her and my ex will be moving in together within the next month. I am not a difficult mom and from what I hear she is a nice girl but apart of me just wants to scream! What am I going to do if she does want to come to one of his games? What do I say when I do meet her for the first time?

Oops - sorry my post went twice and I didn't answer the question !! Unfortunately, you get more with honey than vinegar - and I'm sure someday I will meet her - so, like they say when a bully is being mean to you - just ignore it (then go home and scream in your pillow) - the last thing I want if for everyone to say - no wonder he divorced her she's such a witch !

Oy - my kids are teens and pre teens - I definitely feel like I did all the work and they will get to have all the fun and glory.My 11 year old daughter already borrowed her sneakers and this week they are going to get their nails done together - talk about stabbing me in the heart !!!!!!!!!!!!!
