I am inclined to agree that two weeks definitely doesn’t constitute as a relationship. It’s not enough time to get to know someone, but I could imagine spotting a dealbreaker that quickly and deciding it wasn’t the right situation for me. Statistically speaking, it takes 2-3 months for people to start to show their true colors, which is about the time people decide to invest further or jump ship.

Grain of salt. One single parent to another? Not good for kiddos to experience the rotating door. If you’re only going to see a chick for a couple weeks that’s fine, but it’s healthier for the child to keep your dating compartmentalized, not introduce the kiddo so fast where each prospect is gone in a blink. It’s destabilizing for them and instills anxiety/insecurity in forming attachments (The pains you describe wanting to spare your kiddo) @Squri13

Wow.... maybe put it out there that you want an independent person, who can support themselves while you decide whether the relationship is working.Take turns staying at each other’s places on weekends? Alternating weekends to better understand one another’s expectations? I dunno. It makes sense to me to go slow. I guess they really are into you?@Squri13
