How do you feel about your childs boyfriend/girlfriend?

I love him/her! They're practically family
he/she is a good kid
We're friendly but not that close. Good kid
Indifferent
I don't know what my child sees in him/her
I wish they weren't dating

I wasnt the number one woman in his life, I guess. It didnt make a lot of intellectual sense but it was there!

And DS1 dated late so we are talking 19 which makes a bit of a difference, I expect. He wasnt living at home so the ONLY time I saw him was with the GF. There was probably a good 6-8 mos where I never saw him alone because they were joined at the hip

I probably should have mentionned the age thing because I expect the feelings are different from HS relationships

Maybe not?

But I'll probably never know-DS2 dated in HS but nothing serious so his first 'GF' was summer after graduation(and still in place) and DS3 at 15 isnt even close!!!

My son is 17 and hasn't had a girlfriend since first grade. I often wonder how I'll feel about "her" when he finds one he likes.
