So, what are the biggest differences of dating 20-somethings versus 30-somethings?

It’s funny, yet eye-opening, when one’s biggest concern is which one of his friends’ houses he’ll be pregaming at while the other’s is looking for people to watch his kids.

(Were going to talk more specifically later tonight) I know she lied about dating because we would not have approved, and that is true.

So there will definitely be consequences for that, but as for the rest, I am at a loss. But knowing her, I can understand what an older person would like about her. And Guy has called apologizing about lying and they both have said he wanted to tell us, but she didnt. I spent a lot of time today talking him out of finding the Guy and doing bodily harm to him.

Since then, he has driven their coed group of friends around town to movies and such on occasion for some months now.

This whole time, Ive been constantly asking why is a 25 year old guy ok with hanging out with a group of 17-18 year olds? But Daughter said that Guy doesnt drink and all his friends do, and he doesnt like to hang out with a bunch of drunk people. By now, Ive met Guy a few times and he actually seems like a nice person. Her dad and I (We are divorced, but try to keep a united front in the raising of the kids) found out they have been dating for a while and are possibly having sex.

Your friends are at a completely different part of life than his friends, which is probably one of the leading factors of what makes this so difficult.

So the last few weeks, I notice her texting and talking on the phone to Guy more and more. She and I have discussed sex, safe sex, responsibility and consequences on numerous occasions, and she has confided in me about some of her friends activities; some that she disagrees with.

I start to question her on the nature of their relationship. On that note, I feel she is comfortable talking and being open with me.

You may be laughing at the situation, but you can bet he isn’t.

A 20-something never wants to give up a weekend night for a simple date.
