Caolinn now has a boyfriend. The parents wanted to meet me, and I, of course, have been wanting to meet him and them, so we were scheduled to go over there, this morning. Truly, the kid couldn’t be a nicer kid, and his parents seem terribly sweet, so, we got lucky on this one.
Ryan: So, how did the whole meet and greet go?
Me: As we were driving over, I said, “Well….time to meet the in-laws.”
Ryan: Was she horrified?
Me: No, she smiled…so now, I’m horrified.
Just remember the first few teenage romances typically have a lifespan measured in weeks. So soon you can meet the next one!
I’m guessing the fact that I like him will make it last even less time. *sigh*
That’s the brutal reality…
And wait until you catch her doing something you’d rather not see. The evening I caught my step-daughter and her BF horizontal on the couch (clothed, but definitely getting busy) was a bit awkward!
I just died. I don’t even know them, and I died.
On the other hand, you never know how long its going to last. 🙂 Or, from my perspective, it took me 46 years to get it right…
Agreed. The first one never lasts, but hopefully it lasts long enough to keep her away from at least 3 lingering weirdos.
Ah, the lingering weirdos…
In laws are scary.
Losing mine in the divorce was worth every dime.
I find the “Ted Cruz” tag on a post about your daughter’s boyfriend more than a little horrifying, which is probably one more reason that it’s a good thing I never had kids.
I always put random tags on. 🙂 Some are weirder than others…
I love doing random tags. My favorite was when 4 years ago my completely made up word in a tag became a search term that then led people right back to my post….
TRYING THAT!
I think she played you on that one… and very well too.
Agreed. Damn it.
