Guest topjohn5 Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Has anyone ever had the experience of dating a boy and then having to meet the BF that MOM is dating? Mom's BF is, of course, a straight white guy, lol and about your age, hahhaha! This is too f-ing wierd..... I think I'll avoid this encounter, lol! I'm not even sure which part makes me the most uncomfortable............don't think I'll even ponder it........... But has anyone been through something like this before? Quote
Guest GaySacGuy Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Haven't had the experience of meeting Mom's BF, but have met Boyfriend's Mom, and after some talk, determined that she and I are the same age!!! Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 I am older than my BF's mom by 5 years. Quote
Jason1988 Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Thais really don't care that much about age when westerners are dating them or family members. She would just like to know that her son is being treated well. That matters more to her than your age. Quote
Guest laurence Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 What about meeting the farang boyfriend of the wife of the boy you are dating? All in the family, and yes this has happened. Quote
Jason1988 Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 It must feel creepy to the mom's farang bf too! Quote
mahjongguy Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 I am 60, my b/f is 33. His mom is 56 and has been a widow for a decade. The first time I met her it was made clear that she'd be happy to marry me. Her divorced sister seemed to feel the same way. I truly don't know how to react. Quote
Gaybutton Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 Thais really don't care that much about age when westerners are dating them or family members. That indeed does seem to be the case most of the time. If they don't feel "creepy" about it, why should we? I don't think it would bother me in the slightest. If the other farang chooses to feel awkward about it, that's his problem. Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 I hosted dinner for my bf's family (all 17 of them, but only cost me 3200 baht). The only one of them who spoke English was a cousin and he said to me, "We want you to love Wichan". Not one of them gave me the impression that they didn't approve. Quote
Guest MonkeySee Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 Thais really don't care that much about age when westerners are dating them or family members. She would just like to know that her son is being treated well. That matters more to her than your age. Some westerners don't care that much about age, too. My farang ex-bf introduced me to his family. I was two years older than his mom and the step-father was a few years older than me. I was welcomed in as part of the family. I still keep in touch with mom to this day. In Thailand, I usually turn down invitations to meet the family. I have regulars that want to take me home. Although it would be a great experience, I try to keep my butterfly status. Quote
