MY son’s girl keeps coming on to me.
This is so awkward and embarrassing.
She’s a very attractive, provocative young woman. She comes into the kitchen wearing nothing more than pants and a skimpy vest – I don’t know where to look.
More than once she’s told me that I’m “hunky” and manly – like a fatter Paul Hollywood.
I know I look nothing like the TV baker, but then she squeezes past me to get the milk or stands too close as I’m washing up and I feel myself falling for her.
I absolutely swear nothing untoward has happened between us – not even a sneaky kiss – but the chemistry is electric. I don’t know if I’m strong enough to resist her when she’s virtually offering herself up on a plate.
Naked
I’m currently working from home. I’m trying to get a start-up off the ground. Our 28-year-old son turned up with this girlfriend a few weeks ago. He likes to travel the world and picked her up in Amsterdam in September.
My wife thinks she’s nice. The person she has a problem with is our son who doesn’t wash, or clear up after himself and keeps asking for money. If anything, she considers his girlfriend a good influence and thinks they should get married.
My wife trusts me to behave myself in the house all day, but I’m in turmoil here.
Look, I’m a man of a certain age and sex with my wife has become predictable and dull. Dare I dip my toes in forbidden waters? If I pass up on sex with this lady, then will anyone else ever find me attractive again?
Our son is so laid back, that I doubt he’d even notice (or care) if I was caught stark naked in bed with his girlfriend.
JANE SAYS: Your mind really is all over the place. One minute you’re saying that your son’s new girlfriend embarrasses and intimidates you, the next you’re asking me if you should have sex with her.
Please put your sensible head on and put some distance between yourselves. Sleeping with her, no matter how attractive and provocative she is, is a complete no-no. You need to protect your marriage, your reputation and your home.
Be honest with your wife, tell her today that the two of them need to move on because you’re being prevented from getting on with your work and feeling relaxed and comfortable in your own kitchen.
From what I can tell, your admirer hasn’t done much more than smoulder and brush past, but you have to judge your instincts on this one and if something doesn’t feel right, then the chances are it isn’t right.
For all you know, she could be bored and getting a kick out of embarrassing you and getting you hot under the collar – this could all be a manipulative game to her.
If relations have become stale with your wife, then make a real effort to shake things up with date nights, romantic gestures and kind deeds. Pencil in some early bedtimes and use your energy and imagination positively.
This is the perfect time to turn everything around.
