So, a man I met through OLD came to vist me, since we are long distance.
This was our 4th meeting. He is extremely respectful of the fact I have DD16 and DD18, and he stayed in a hotel, and we would go on day trips while he was in my town.
DD18 lives with her father in the next town over and was unaware of my new friend. She unexpectedly showed up while my date and I were sitting on the patio of my home chatting.
He rose, offered his hand and greeted her. She got what she needed from the house and left.
Well, apparently she texted her sister the following:
DD18: I need you to answer because it's an EMERGENCY!!!!
DD16: What???
DD18: OMG, mom has a dude at the house!
I cannot stop laughing about this since I am in my 50's and my new friend is in his young 60's. He thinks it is great he is a "dude"!

OMG, kids are awesome
I can't imagine how mine will react when by the age of 100 I finally bring a date home.

Gotta love when kids discover their parent has a life too !
Since it's been 5 yrs and my kids are 30+ yrs old..they would probably say, it's about damn time Mom.

It's my life now, my choices, my mistakes to make and my victories to celebrate. His choices made me free of liars and betrayers in my life. That is priceless.

that is cute!
I just hope they don't impose to you a curfew too early.
Pain and suffering is part of life, but I choose to feel love and compassion for all people excluding no one.

When they start calling you every 5 minutes after 1am... you're in TROUBLE...
don't ask me how I know
