Is it normal that my father won't introduce us to his girlfriend?

My father has been dating a women for some months now and I only just found out say a month ago that it's serious and he loves her. My sister and I STILL have not been introduced to her and I find it highly offensive and odd. Shouldn't he want his new women to meet the 2 kids that are supposedly most important to him?

I have no desire to meet this women now but the fact that he has done nothing to show this, i question his loyalty.

    You should give him time. I won't restate everything because Hard_Candy definitely nailed it. But yes, it is normal.

    Hard candy's def right.
    This could be as simple as an identity crisis. He might be waiting to see if this will last. Better than introducing multiple gfs in a week.

    Let your father go at his own pace. There could be many reasons why he hasn't introduced her. Maybe he isn't as serious about her as you think he is. If they aren't actually living together its not that serious. If he decides to live with & or marry this woman you will be introduced. You should learn to be sort of detached from your father's romantic relationships and stop trying to be all up in it. You have no say, you cannot control or approve of his choice. Just let him live his life. You'll meet her when its time.

    My dad did this too, when i was very young and he had a girlfriend he would just refer to her as his "friend", my sister and i were too young to realize they were actually together.
    When i was going through the awkward teen stages he straight out told me that he was embarrassed to introduce me to his girlfriend at the time because she was a nice Christian lady and wouldn't approve of the music i listened to.
    Now that I'm older he doesn't even mention the women he's with let alone introduce me to them. I usually find out some other way like last week was his birthday and this lady wrote on his facebook "love you honey" blablabla. i'm thinking who the hell is that.. and just found out now hes been seeing her for years.
    I don't think it's normal, he's just a douche bag.
