My 21 year old son is beyond uncomfortable with me dating despite me being divorced 4 years now

I understand that young men don’t want to think about mom dating or having needs but there needs to at least be some compromise. It’s really upsetting to not be able to pay attention to my own wants and needs on account of upsetting my son.

My son was 24 and my daughter 23 and my son was the worse one when i started dating again. I dated my now husband for 4yrs and he's still never met him or been to where i live and our home and hes now 34. I think boys are worse than girls with their mums.

@Primnproper Did he expect you to just be alone forever???

@MrBlueGuy i think he expected to have my undivided attention and yet he moved to the other end of the country for his career and didn't bat an eyelid so I'm glad i made my own path.
