BM's long-distance Boyfriend is coming to visit

BM found a boyfriend some states away. She told DH she knew him in high-school. Her sis told MIL that she met him on the Internet. Who knows what to believe?

Anyway, she's already talked to the kids about moving there. And of course DH says he is willing to spend every last dime to make sure his kids aren't completely taken out of his life.

Both SD and BM told DH that he'd meet the new bf during pick-up on a upcoming weekend, and they both asked him "to not be an idiot" while meeting the guy. SD asked first but it obviously came from her mother. DH has met bfs before and been totally cool about it, so it's not like he behaves stupid, they just both know how to put a person down, SD is learning very well.

DH was a bit sad though, because both kids told him that he's going to get to meet their Future Father on that weekend. Now, when DH and I got married, BM had a hissy fit and demanded that the kids do not call me "Mom" (dunno why because we never suggested it) and made it clear that "They have only ONE MOM." But now, it's ok for her to turn around and let them call their POSSIBLE future stepdad "Father". And somehow, DH does not have the same demanding attitude she does, and did not correct her and the kids by saying "They only have ONE FATHER". I wish he did, I kinda wish he had put her in her place. But maybe he has his reasons... he wants to keep drama minimal, he keeps saying the kids will grow up and realize one day... I sure hope so.
