[quote=eney0715]Do you think having a 42-year-old step dad is okay? Why? (Enlighten me! )[/quote] well i have a stepdad. he's like in his mid-40s as well.. i dont think age really matters when it comes to a stepfather... i mean, your mom's an adult right? if she loves him, then she loves him. you can only make adjustments to that by either accepting him or trying to drive him out of your life. but the one thing that you both have in common is your love for the Woman, your mom. like i had said before age does not matter.... its only how you treat each other. think of how it will affect your mom if you were hostile to each other... [[kindof hard to explain i guess....; i dno if this helped... ]] [b]Issue;[/b] What are your thoughts on 'flirting'? Why do you think that way about it?
