Dating after divorce comes with its own set of emotional challenges—but introducing your child to a new partner can be one of the most sensitive steps in the process. In this week's episode, I share my journey through dating and finally getting to the point where I feel okay with introducing my son to the man that I'm dating. It took me a long time to finally feel comfortable with the idea. I worry about how my son will react, whether it's too soon, or if this new relationship might disrupt the fragile post-divorce balance. There's also fear of rejection—from either my son or my partner. I've realized that introducing someone new to my son is not just a milestone in the relationship—it’s a bridge between two worlds, and it's okay to take my time building it.
