He should be ashamed of himself for even asking you! The man has some nerve!
N O spells NO and that's it! Don't cave in!

okay i would be extremely mad. Probably be called crazy. but your daughter knows you are her mother, you take care of her, and you have a loving bond no gf of his is going to take that away from you. make sure you know where she lives in case anything happens to your child you know where to find her.

You have a right to be upset for a few reasons. 1) You are her one and only mom and he should respect that. Even my step-son doesn't call me mom. 2) Bringing significant others in and out of a child's life can be harmful to the child. It can cause attachment issues, among other things. My ex did this same thing (every girl moved in and was "mom" for 2-4 months) with about a dozen girls before the court stepped in and took her out of his care. 3) When someone cheats it raises a lot of strong emotions, being upset is absolutely normal, I would be too.

Most likely both of you will find the person you will spend the rest of your life with eventually, which means there may be a woman that moves in and acts as the other parent when your daughter is at her dad's house. It has taken me a long time to come to grips with this with my daughter. As long as she doesn't call the new woman "mom" or something similar, the woman is respectful to me and my daughter, and she likes the woman..I think I'll consider myself lucky, it could be worse.

You have a right to be upset. For now, unfortunately I don't think there is much you can do except try to talk to him about how the two of you want to handle introducing SO's into your daughters life.
