Why am I not attending his company parties?
Re: Why am I not attending his company parties?
My best friend is a vet. Sometimes her and her colleagues go out for drinks after work. Her fiance goes all the time. I've gone to meet up with them too. I think it's very strange that your FI has never invited you (and doesn't even tell you if he's going??). Where I work is a closed facility and so it's a pain to bring external people in and we always have work parties around lunchtime, just employees. But if my husband really wanted to come, I'd work it out. And we don't drink, because we're at work. I don't really understand having regular "parties" after work with alcohol but not bringing SOs? Seems fishy.
Vet offices are open to the public. I have dropped by to surprise my friend with birthday cake before and they are happy to see me. Why don't you drop by and surprise him and his coworkers with donuts or some kind of snack? And make sure the front desk staff know you are his FI. If they act surprised or this somehow makes him unhappy, something is definitely wrong.
Is this real life?
Why do you want to have a baby with him? Seriously?
Why did his child's mother dump his ?
I totally agree with this! Just stop by really quick with no notice and see what the atmosphere is like around there. Introduce yourself to the group.
All of this.
I wouldn't even trust him just based on the information you've given. I know Facebook is silly, but keeping the relationship status hidden is shady. It's even worse that you are not "allowed" at his work or work related functions.
I would stop by his work. Just a friendly visit. Maybe you could bring him his favorite beverage. Then you can introduce yourself. Just get a feel for the atmosphere.
Oh, and trust me. You DO NOT want to TTC yet. Sorry you're going through this during a time that should be happy.
