We heard about this whole change of relationship Friday, and M moved out (almost) yesterday. Also yesterday, my son said "Mom, <insert name I can't even remember> will be a much better daughter-in-law" He had a brief dally (2-3 months) with this one during high school.

How old is your son?

Aside from the fact he's your son and living under your roof (which are obviously massive!), why are you so concerned? I mean, he's 22 and needs to make his own mistakes I think.

I'm sure your concerns are real, but....well I can't think of a nicer way to say it: back off. Catch him when he falls and advise when it fits, but other than that let him get on with it.

All IMO, of course. Wishing your family all the best.

He gets the same treatment I got at this point in life: he's still in college and without children, so he can live under my roof.

When I got the news, I walked into his room, slapped him on the shoulder, and said "IF you need someone to talk about this, you know where I am"

I'm simply airing my OWN pain at the loss of a relationship.

p.s.

At 22, the only thing he should be doing, is work and/or college and boffing as many chicks as possible.

Fair play. I hope it works out for him. I figure if he's ready to jump ship so quickly, he must be pretty smitten with the new one!

Doing what to them??

Reminds me of an Aussie housemate I had a while back; that was his term for it. That or "rooting".

I too just had a buddy yesterday utilize the term root when referring to his smallest finger. I got a good chuckle at this new term, and here we are again, less than 24 hours later

Isn't boffing what our second most recent supreme court justice is into? With Mikey and Squee?

My current whatever is really laying it on thick but a girl I know who also rides made it known she is single. Now it's a "the devil you know" scenario

You know what? You might be onto something here.

So you've mentioned meatball flags and now riding... do you race or just a rider who watches races?

Also, girls who ride are either awesome or loose cannons.

I used to race in SCCA when I was younger but all am, just for bragging rights among friends really. Then at 30 I got back into bikes but now I just do it for fun, wasting a lot of money on tracks but only racing myself. I do watch a ton though, I can get a knee down and save a front-tuck from time to time but those little Spaniards are witches!

I'm all for a girl who rides her own. Being a willing passenger is a rule and the current is all for it but often I have to leave her behind when the gang and I want to go be proper hooligans in the mountains. If she had her own she could still come.

And for my niece, who is 4 days younger? She should be out getting rooted?

......aaaaand this is how a thread dies. I hear crickets chirping.

No?

Only if she wants it?

The second Tuesday of every month?

I'm grasping at straws here Wede.

I think everybody is caught up in their dating lives and forgetting to post about it; presumably because things are going well at the moment?!?!

Dang3r · 08-04-2021, 02:47 PM

Not at all, flirting of course, not more.
I think the masked smile is sometimes kinda sexy like a bikini, when you see a beauty but you cant see her face in total so you try to figure.
Ok, this could be gone sideways also, but almost not

That is until she finally removes the mask and has Austin Powers teeth

Definitely not the case on this end. Currently doing damage control.

Mine is coming over to make me dinner with some conditions to make up for accusing me of cheating. Not really much to say yet, just depends on how she behaves.

I wasnt looking to make a move on the moto lady at the moment.

The worst feeling is being accused of doing something you truly aren't doing.
