She Angered Her Boyfriend After She Told Him She Didn’t Love His Kids Yet Since She Had Only Met Them Once
Meeting your partner’s kids from another marriage is a situation that comes with a lot of pressure. But can you imagine being asked whether or not you love them right after meeting them?
One woman recently angered her boyfriend after she told him she didn’t love them yet because she had only met them once.
She’s 35 and dating her 38-year-old boyfriend, Tyler. Tyler has two daughters from a previous marriage: Ava, who is 11-years-old, and Lexi, who is 15-years-old.
She’s been dating Tyler for six months, and a few days ago, he introduced her to his daughters for the very first time at dinner. She was very excited to meet Tyler’s daughters and thought they were sweet, funny, and charming. Things went very well, and she felt they all got along.
The next day, while she was with Tyler, they started talking about his girls. Suddenly, Tyler told her how excited he was for her to become their “mom,” which took her aback. Although they’ve been together for six months, she hasn’t given any thought to marrying Tyler yet.
She told him that sounded nice but didn’t elaborate further as she became uncomfortable. Tyler looked at her funny before asking her if she loved his kids.
“I told him no,” she recalled.
“He was shocked. I explained that I had only met Ava and Lexi once [and] I barely knew them. They’re sweet kids and all, but I don’t consider them my kids yet. He went off on me and made a scene, yelling that I’m a horrible person to not love my own future kids.”
She feels bad about Tyler’s reaction, as she certainly likes his daughters and could see herself becoming a member of their family someday, but that would be in the far-off future.

Tyler eventually called her and apologized for blowing up. But when he asked her if she really didn’t love his kids, things went south again.
“I explained that I thought his kids were lovely, but I just don’t love them yet,” she said.
“I literally met them two days ago, one time. How am I supposed to love someone just because they are my boyfriend’s kids?”
Tyler angrily hung up on her, and he’s been mad at her ever since. Again, she thinks his kids are great, but she hardly knows anything about them. She can’t love someone she hardly knows. She could see herself loving them once she got to know them more, but that answer wasn’t good enough for Tyler.
Unfortunately, she doesn’t have much support from her family either, as when she told her dad about this issue, he told her she was a crazy person who would be a horrible mother, all because she didn’t love Tyler’s kids yet.
Is she crazy for not loving Tyler’s kids yet, or was her reaction valid?
