    Hi i just wondering about what you think about this suitation.
    I broke up with my ex last year and we still friends and talk, recently she started passing hints about going away for a few days and wants to bring her kids with her (they aint mine).
    Why would she think i should go off on a hoilday with her and her kids ?

    Did you ask her?
    If not, do so, she's the only one who can give the right answer.

    I tend to start with the simplest view, and see if that stands up to scrutiny.

    A woman going on holidays with young children would probably like to have a friend along who gets on well with her and the children. She may see you as such a friend.

    Even it was a case that she just wanted a friend along, I think it would be a bad idea to go. It could be confusing for the children and I think lines could become blurred.

    The best thing you can do is ask her about it. Explain to her your feelings on the situation and the effect it could have on the children.

    Honestly dont know how you can expect accurate advice with such little detail in post. I mean depending on how and why you split up, could she be reconsidering/hoping to get back. Maybe, but impossible for us to give our thoughts without any information

    When we go on holidays, a big part of it being a holiday is having a wander in the evenings along the seafront, picking a place to have dinner, and just relaxing, enjoying the food and a few drinks and the atmosphere, and enjoying talking to each other. For my partner and I its romantic, but I've been on holidays with friends and family and do the same, and its just relaxing with adult company.

    If the kids are in bed, there's a long evening ahead with no-one to talk to. It may not necessarily be romantic, just company on holidays. But only she can tell you if that is the case or not.
