My son is 27 and has never dated, should I intervene?

Question

He told me he asks women out and tries to get with them but he tells me they reject him every time. I feel bad for him. Is this a result of how superficial people are these days? Or is it a problem he has that I should intervene with?

I know you are worried and maybe even feel sorry or sad but no, no intervention is required.

I am his age and I have never had a date. Yes, I did have a boyfriend but believe it or not I never had a date. But still, I would feel sad, embarrassed, frustrated that my mom or dad intervene.

Maybe I am doing something wrong but I need to figure it out and after so many things I realized why guys do not approach me.

Leave him alone, he already trust you enough to talk to you about, keep that and support him, give him advice but no intervention, Mr.

I'm curious what sort of "intervention" a father would do for his son to get a date. His love life is sort of his personal business, and I doubt a guy who is 27 would really enjoy knowing his dad has to step in and make things happen for him.

Women are rejecting guys for reasons, and if he's not getting anywhere with women, perhaps the best intervention would be for you to encourage him to develop as a happier single guy.

What an awful answer. Accept my fate as a single middle-aged man. My father was disappointed that I never gave him grandchildren. I don't matter to anyone. I exist in a world that hates me. I am occupying valuable space. I am a bother to everyone by being alive. I am better off dead.

Perhaps give him some advice if you feel he needs it, but other than that I do not think you should intervene at all. First, you need to know why he is getting rejected, though.

No, I don't think you should intervene with him. I've never dated myself (and I turn 25 in 18 days.)

It's more than likely not your son's fault. As you stated, people are just shallow. Women under 30 tend to solely want guys for how much they make and how much they can be spoiled, etc. This is why high class men get all the young women. It's just a lousy generation to be a 20-something. My parents even admitted it.

I hate my generation for the most part.

Intervene? I don't know, maybe you could suggest him to date a girl if you think she'll be good for him, but that's all in my opinion.

I think the problem is the fact no girl wants to date his son in the first place.
