I am 52, long divorced, but am now in a serious relationship. I have not yet introduced my girlfroend to my daughter as I am not sure how my daughter will react. She is 24 and doesn't like her mother's boyfriend, how can I stop the same happening here?

The fact that she doesn't like her mom's boyfriend doesn't really mean that she won't like your girlfriend. Has she said why she doesn't like him? Does she have legit reasons or is just because they are dating?
Your daughter is a grown woman of 24, which means that with having a mind of her own - she is the only one who can establish whether or not she likes a person.
I'm sure that if you're gf if pleasant to her, friendly and doesn't come across as if she's expecting to be the "new/next mom" figure..and if your daughter sees/feels that you are happy w/this woman, then I'm sure things will be fine.
Sometimes when you try to control these things, it makes it worse.
Does your daughter know that you're dating? You may want to have a heart-to-heart w/her, see how she feels about you dating, tell her what your gf is like and the things that make you feel happy to be w/her. Whatever you do - DON'T make verbal comparisons whether good or bad - between her and her mom. Then just tell her that you would love for her to meet your gf and see how she responds. Maybe allow her to decide when she meets her, that way you'll know she's ready to experience meeting your gf and it's not being forced on her.
GOOD LUCK DEAR!

if you are serious about your girlfriend you should go ahead and introduce her to your daughter. plus, my mom got remarried and i hated my step-dad at first but i really like him now hes like a real dad to me now. i think your daughter will get used to her.

For cyring outloud don't worry about it. Date who you want to date when you want to date and have a real life.---you only get one.
