Bit of a strange one this one,simply cos I can almost hear some people saying "relationship at 12 and 14?...no way!!!".
Anyway,it started in the summer and went on until about Nov.(he's only just turned 14)
DD1 has got a head on her shoulders and-to be fair-so has this lad (who I actually think is a nice lad really.)
However,he is-shall-we-say-a much sought after young lad and knows it.DD1 is also a very very good looking young girl and to be fair,I always thought they fancy themselves more than they do each other....well,so they should at their ages lol!!!
Thing is,when they split,it was ME that started to get very anxious about her.Was always worried that she was going to get depressed and not be able to get on with things....I know,I know,....she's TWELVE for gods sake lol!!!What i'm actually wondering is,does anyone have experience of getting too involved with their childrens'"relationships!?(i have 3 very close together and they've all had boyfriends and girlfriends,but I seem to get way too involved with my eldest's way too much.)This lad asked her back out on New Year's Day and-much to my hubbie's horror-I was over the moon for my daughter.Think he may possibly have been correct in saying that she's only gonna get hurt again though as,already,he's playing her up a bit.I know many of you out there are going to think I'm a complete nutter but I did think I was having anxiety attacks last time they split up.Is there a name for this...?Please don't tell me i'm living my life through my dd though because we are completely different personalities----she is much much more outgoing than I ever was and proved herself to be very strong first time they broke up.However,i'm terrified about the next time it happens and-let's face it-I suppose it's gonna happen sooner or later!
