Anyway, 2 weeks ago this sunday, I moved into a new house with my dad. My sisters stayed with my mum and I was the only one to stay with my dad. All was going well and I really liked staying in the house. It's less than a minutes drive from work, so it's super convenient.
So tonight, my sisters and dad go to the panto (I didn't go because it was at 6 and I was put on the late shift. I wasnt told anything about it until wednesday so there was nothing i could do.) I get to the old house and my mum tells me that this woman my dad has been speaking to is coming over to stay. I asked when and she said tomorrow.
I wasn't sure whether it was my mum just trying to cause **** or w.e but really, I knew it was true. I was immediately angry that my dad hadn't told me.
So like half an hour ago, my dad comes in and tells me. This woman is staying for a month and she's going to be spending christmas and new year with him.
i'm just so so angry. Do I have the right to be? I told my dad that I didn't want to meet her and that I'd be moving back to the old house for a month or so.
is that selfish of me?
Maybe i'd feel different if I was told like a week ago, but the fact that it's less than 24 hours away... i'm just devastated. i didn't want the year to end like this at all.

It's not selfish at all, I totally understand why you feel like that, and you've had so much **** thrown your way recently that this is just another kick in the teeth...
Only thing I would say to you is that you should maybe tell your dad that you don't want to meet her because it's such unexpected news, I'm sure he feels awful for driving you away, so just make sure he knows it's not because you don't want to be around him, I'm sure it would have meant the world to him for you to have spent the festive period with him but he won't be alone and there's no reason why you should have to feel uncomfortable in your own home.
