How would you feel if your son is dating one of your friend?

[Kelly6]

[ohsheeT]

When my son was 17 he got into it with his mom and she called me up and said you need to come pick him up

He was angry at her because the way that she treated me throughout the divorce and now he was old enough and smart enough to understand what she did but that was still no right for him to treat her the way that he was doing

He also got kicked out of his school and had to go to a charter school

So I wouldn't pick them up and I told him you have one rule one rule only

I told him I didn't care if he was 50 years old but he was going to graduate school

Anyway long story short it took 3 days but

He went to school every single day graduated early and got to graduate with his regular high School he became a fireman paramedic so I'm very very proud

Meanwhile as he was living with me yes I would have girls come over all the time and I didn't know this until probably about a year down the road but he had been secretly doing whatever with them LOL


And none of these girls were my girlfriends they were just good friends so there was nothing I could do about it anyway because I didn't know about it

And even if I did know about it I don't know if I would have but it all turned out for the best

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

I wouldn't allow it, plain and simple. This is not how it works in my family, my son will pick from candidates we chose for him just like I did and my father did.

[Kelly6]

@Sun_Kim-Ai
So in your family it’s always arranged marriage?

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

Somewhat, it's preferable to marry someone who comes from our level of wealth or above. They are semi-arranged because neither me or my sister were forced into it, our father just made encouraged us to date/hang out with good candidates he picked.

I did the same for my half-brother since my father has passed, I matchmade him with some of the finest women from Italy, France and Belgium.

[Kelly6]

@Sun_Kim-Ai
Interesting

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Well, my son is 12 so I'd be furious at my friend lmao

If he were older though and a consenting adult, then whatever works for him. I just hope my friend makes my son happy.

[Kelly6]

@Sun_Kim-Ai
Question was a grown so above age 18, so ok.
Neither would I mind at that age

[ItsJill]

I'd kick both their asses, then wonder where I did go wrong for this fuck up to happen.

[Kelly6]

@ItsJill wow that hard core lol

[MK1997]

Why your son? She's the older responsible one

[ItsJill]

@MK1997 I might let it pass for him but the former friend would be a dead woman

[MK1997]

Same here @ItsJill

[plumplum-1994]

No facts, because in my head I’ll be thinking like did they see my son this way when he was little to? Were they just waiting for them to get “older” ? Sooo many questions

[AviatorTom]

Both of my sons are married, so I'd be disappointed.

Back when they were single, I'd be surprised, since they both preferred to date their own age, but if they are happy, I would quietly look the other way, and implicitly support it.

[HawkPerception]

My friend would never do that, but if they did, it would not be cool at all. I'd immediately cut off all ties.

[OlderAndWiser]

I don’t have any children I don’t know how I would feel.

[Zack-Bann]

I find interesting that most women said they’d be furious and cut off the friend while men were fairly indifferent.


Goes to show just how different perception is on the matter based on gender.


Because I guarantee if this question was about a daughter dating one of your friends most men would be reaching for a shotgun


Now I don’t have a son but pretending that I did and he was of age I would like to think that I raised a smart and capable man who doesn’t take bullshit from the word the same way my parents pushed to raise me and succeeded mostly.
So if he’s dating a woman my age who’s a friend I would have him justify his goals and intentions and make sure she’s not just using him and lying to him and either Ill have them end it or just give him a high five depending on the dynamic in place


I've never dated friends of my parents but I have dated women closer in age to them compared to me on a few occasions and it wasn’t the worst experience ever.
Just unsustainable

[MK1997]

I asked the question in reverse and lot of men were neutral. Some were mad obviously but not as many as you would expect

[molonski2]

So , I'm amusing he is of age , say 18 ( I had a Cougar when I was 18 ) , I'd explain for him that in the short term its fine , and he will get a good empty and plenty of sexual experience , so keep his powder dry and learn , but long term he will need and want a much younger woman , so he can then transfer all he learnt , and all the washing he had done , and cooking..

So I'd advise him to use the time an enjoy , but long term he needs to take charge and not have a mother figure , all be it she may be hot to him now , that won't last , so message would be just enjoy the time , and bang himself senseless.

[molonski2]

Opps Assuming

( Spell correct )

[electromagnetic]

I don’t have children but I’d murder them both.

[Kelly6]

@electromagnetic wow, calm down lol

[electromagnetic]

😆😆

[Anonymous]

I'd cut out that "friend" wondering how long they've been lusting for my teenage child.

[Opinion Owner]

Why are you so obsessed with adults fucking people's children? You dreaming about sleeping with kids or something? Every other question you make is about some people's children fucking adults.

[Kelly6]

because my elder son once had relationship with my friend.

[MK1997]

What if she liked him since he was a kid?

[Kelly6]

@MK1997 no, son started this relationship

[llorando]

I don't have a son, but if I did, I wouldn't feel anything, none of my business who they date (unless it's someone evil like a serial killer).

[Kelly6]

@llorando
Totally agree with

[hahahmm]

I'm too old school for that. And a lot of people are always pushing these days. They don't know how close to the edge they are.

[jaskinry2022]

i would be very disgusted out.

[DrPepper12]

Same three questions:

Legal?

Safe?

Consensual?

After that, it's NUNYA and MYOB. I didn't nt hafta like it but 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Drumlin2001]

My son is 5. Right now I'd be calling the police.
By time he's 18, my friends will be close to 60 and would have known him from birth. I wouldn't be impressed

[MK1997]

That'd be disgusting, she'd be using him

[Drumlin2001]

You assume it old be a woman...

[MK1997]

Well yeah cause boys are usually into women but same thing if it was a man

[FunkyMonkee]

Chances are, any of my friends would be close to 60 older than my son by the time he's old enough to date anything but teenagers, so, if he's into women that old, have at it!!

[HungTexan]

I have some much younger ‘friends’ so it’s ok. If he was dating a woman my age, I’d be concerned.

[Anonymous]

Since I don't have any friends, I would be extremely concerned who this person was! I don't have a son either so that would also be another mystery...

[Surely]

If they were both of legal age. I might give some input on the woman. Since I was friends with her.
Depending on the woman. I could be a little jealous! LOL!

[debtfree_oneyear]

When I was 18 I went on a date with my mom's best friend.

[MK1997]

That's nssty

[MK1997]

Nasty

[debtfree_oneyear]

Nasty?

[MK1997]

Yeah on her part

[debtfree_oneyear]

Why?

[MK1997]

You were young and I assume you knew her since you were a kid

[debtfree_oneyear]

I did.

[debtfree_oneyear]

I was also 18 and a legal consenting adult.

[MK1997]

Yeah that's disgusting, what did your mom do?

[debtfree_oneyear]

Nothing I never told my mom

[MK1997]

Did you have sex with the friend?

[debtfree_oneyear]

I did

[debtfree_oneyear]

She was the first woman I ever saw naked. She asked me to help get the zipper on her dress unstuck.

[sage2021]

That's just too weird 🤪 for me.!

[Kelly6]

@sage2021 I can guess lol

[exitseven]

it depends if it was a male or female friend.

[MK1997]

Biggest sexist on GAG

[Mrtcn01]

if my son is older than 20 no problem. he can f... u.. ck who ever he wants.. except guys (gays)

[Connie88]

Be weird if I had a child. And she watched him grow up.

[LiamJHayden]

Unsure how I would react if my hypothetical son were dating on of my friends.

[NathanDavis]

I'm dating my son's mom...

[llorando]

And word on the street is your son's mom is dating his dad :P

[Kelly6]

@llorando lol exactly

[NathanDavis]

it's going to be an interesting talk tonight...

[nawtee_me]

I am okay with it if he is okay with me dating one of his…. lol. ;)

[MK1997]

Lol nice one

[KaranSharma55]

m not your son ;P but seriously I like the elder women

[XXblack88]

Honestly I probably won't be thrilled

[chrissykerdock]

long as love is involved it's ok

[soe11]

• If he is adult, then why not.

[clampfan101]

Depends mostly on their age difference.

[UnwantedScorpio]

I highlly Trust my friends and actually

[msc545]

It would probably be ok.

[CubaPirate]

Not best pleased with either of them tbh

[DJB72]

He's six. I'd pray for their souls...

[krin_m]

If they are of legal age, I have no issues.

[Samantha_17]

Good for him :)

[Anonymous]

Vengeful. I'd retaliate by dating her son.

[Zack-Bann]

Sounds like a win win more than a retaliation

[Opinion Owner]

@Zack-Bann yeah but a loss for her

[Zack-Bann]

She’s getting her orgasms…
I think she’ll live

[Opinion Owner]

@Zack-Bann trust me. An older woman with your son is one of the worst things possible

[MK1997]

I'd hate it. Would dump the friend

[Ms_Facesitter]

Furious

[Bklynbadboy12]

If they're happy I'm happy for them

[Cassandra2003]

I’d be shocked if had a child.

[zombiewoof]

not a problem

[HoldingtheSword]

Good idea
