Exs gf? Gfs? Help!
I just want advice. I personally don’t care that my ex has a ton of different girlfriends (he’s a player) but I need help with the appropriate way to tell him not to introduce the girls to every single one of them. I’ve asked him in the past, but now my girls have met 4 of them within the last year that I know of. 2 within the last 6 months.
The worst part is he gets mad at my oldest when she calls her the wrong name. My 4 year old told me last night that daddy has a lot of new girlfriends. Sooo I need help. Also if I’m over reacting and need to mind my own business please tell me.

Soooo normally I would say to just let the other parent do what they do. But four in one year? And he is introducing them all to the kids as his girlfriends? I'd ask him as a friend/co-parent....what are you doing? What message are you sending our daughters? Would he like this normalized for them? Should they get older and be one of many girlfriends to some man? He really can do whatever he wants, but if you can't knock some sense into him, I'd try to balance it by having age appropriate conversations about healthy relationships. Let them spend time with any friends or family members that have healthy and long term relationships so they can see what that looks like, too.
I confronted my ex about his toxic relationships, not because my kids met them, but bc they were taking all his energy from the kids. He spent so much time dealing with the girlfriends that he barely was spending time with his kids. I didn't want him to get old and regret that, get sick from the stress, or have my kids miss out on a dad.
