Like would you accept that your (hypothetical) kid is now with the person you wanted? Would you try to break them up? Would you still make a move and try to steal them back? What would you do lol
First, I don't know how old the attractive person is 👀
lol but I’d probably let them be if it was just someone I was attracted to. I find many people attractive like Ryan Reynolds or George Clooney, but I won’t be mad if someone I knew was with them 24/7
I’d be like- “okay! Yeah, we got a ‘glow’d-up’ person in the family? Give me some adorable grandchildren!”
😂I value character more than anything, and if I had a 20 year old child, that means I should already have the love of my life- I won’t be in bed with anyone I don’t consider as my other half.
Not unless I went the reckless route with b. c. And then the child wouldn’t even be a variable in this scenario lol

Why the heck is my 20yr old daughter trying to go for 50+ man? Yes I would because it's like okay we didn't work out but now your trying to score my daughter? I see the game being played, got the mom now let's see if we can get the daughter.. I don't think so. Plus it's the age gap that would be bother me the most she is way to young and yes I know she's adult but still.. it's just no. Lol
That would be very wrong. It does seem to happen sometimes in either direction. It would be even worse if it was the kids spouse... but there is an interesting twist
In a court case here the judge made some comments that it was problematic as to whether the cheating partners could marry as they were technically close relatives (in laws though of course till divorced).
So maybe it could even be incest if you successfully made moves on your 20s kid's spouse. An interesting form of revenge is available if the law does work that way. Probably commonsense would prevail but not a given with law. I think I' going to have to research this a bit for fun.
It would definitely be super weird.. I'd imagine and hope I would be happily still married, so I wouldn't have any problems with attraction to them, but the fact that they are dating my boy, would be mind boggling to me.. And I would probably think that maybe just maybe they were a bit obsessed with me enough to end up dating my son.. Hopefully my son and not my daughter.. 😂😂

That's never going to happen since my oldest son is 39 years younger than me, but entertaining the hypothetical, I can't imagine that I'd interfere.
I can't wrap my head around all those hypotheticals. LOL First, I don't want kids so I can't imagine that part at ALL! But for the sake of the question, let's say I'm 50 and divorced. I'm going to try and picture my 21 yr old son wanting to hit the 48 yr old woman I just stopped dating, or wanted to date. Hmm... go for it, kid. LOL
I am having so much trouble relating to the scenario but, I think I would try not to interfere while secretly hoping they break up, and I think it would be super weird for me and I might not be able to keep that hidden forever.

there would be absolutely no reason no scenario... in which 50 year old me, would try to steal someone's girlfriend... so never mind my son's girlfriend lmfao
that would be just all kinds of weird and messed up for me to do A rather ambarrassing situation, but I can live with that because ultimately it's up to the involved lovers to decide for themselves. Their choice, and I'dd have to take a step back and leave them alone.
I’d just leave it. Some times they end of up leaving and never talking to them again. It’s just an on going cycle. Wouldn’t try to interfere at all. My kids life. As long as it wasn’t the father of my kid. That would be another story.
Depends if they knew I was attracted or not lol... also depends if they ever found me attractive... I don't mind if the guy never liked me.
I'm 50 but my son is 4. If he starts dating the last girl I was attracted to I'll need to have serious words with her about boundaries
Hypothetically I guess I could be ok with it, if they are happy together. But it might depend on how long I had been dating her, with how weird it would feel.
It was someone I was just attracted to but never dated and nothing happened? I’d keep it to myself and let them date. If they dated the same person I dated I would feel very weird about that.
If the person is close to my age, and therefore old enough to be that person's mother, I would not approve. If she was between our ages, I would probably respect it. After all, I know why my hypothetical son is attracted towards her.
Absolutely. No problem. I'm not with them. If they're of legal age and consenting, none of my business.
Would be awkward but I'd try to stay out of it
If a man my age tried to date my daughter, I would most definitely interfere.
That's a really good question. It would definitely be very awkward for me but I think I'd just let chips fall where they may. If my son ended up dating her identity be civil towards her
I would accept it, it would be very awkward for me.
By that point I doubt I'd care, I'd have moved on from that person and I wouldn't really care who my child was dating as long as it's a good person.
Let's hope I was having a cougar phase when it happened because I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with my kid dating someone older than me.
I’d have a problem with it. I don’t want my kid dating someone I used to hunch on and hopefully she’d be grossed out by the thought
You mean like that 20s kid tries to date a girl who is was into and is then also 40-50?
I dunno, if my imaginary son is into milfs, why not. But if he becomes like me, he'll probably also fail in getting her haha
