a little concerned for daughter & new boyfriend

actually he did apply, she is a freshman this year and he is still a senior in high school. he was accepted at her college but his major is nursing, like his single mom, and there are other in state state schools he got into with good nursing programs. he still has to decide after weighing all the info and $$ offers, etc. his decision comes after their breakup.

That’s good then for both of them that he doesn’t need to take their relationship into consideration when making his decision. I’m sure it was hard on both of them and you never know they may end up back together at some point.

yeah, we were worried our son’s college choice was influenced by his girlfriend’s college but he assured us it was not. he is 1 year behind her. she goes to Northeastern and he goes to Emerson.

and now our Son broke up with his girlfriend of 2 1/2 years … ka sera sera

I am the mom who broke up my D’s dating in HS because I don’t approve HS dating. She went underground with the 2nd one who is 40 miles away from her college. He is pre-med with direct admission, she is nursing. This one is an absolute NO NO because religious reason. We tried to break them up, but couldn’t. But both were too busy with school, they broke up after a year in college. Now she is seeing someone who is working in another state. My DH and I don’t like this one either, but we stay out of it. She is now 20, she won’t listen to us anyway, so why bother. The only line I draw is I will not open my house to him and we will not meet him. I told her when they are ready to get engaged after 5+ years, she can bring him to us. She is fine with that. I just hope one day they break up.

Wow. Just wow. Your poor daughter.

Agreed Romani! Sounds like a guide book for estrangement.

The only line I draw is ‘Once you hurt her, you’re done’

I am literally speechless, and that doesn’t happen often.
