    I wouldn’t feel bad about it, especially if your partner isn’t pushing for you to meet them. Sounds like the situation is a delicate one.

    When I got back into contact with my father (who I cut ties with because he was a drunk/addict, was not mentally stable, and was absent and abusive), we met on my terms. Neutral ground and I brought my mom for backup. I cried so much before that meet and almost chickened out.

    I don’t really have any advice or whatever, but I totally understand the anxiety you feel. If you ever wanna talk about it, just dm me and I’ll lend an ear.
