But do you think it is acceptable that dp texts his sons girlfriend and they put kisses at the end. She is 17.

Your son's teenage girlfriend is lending your DP money for a takeaway? That doesn't reflect well on him if true. Does DH have a job? A DP of 3 years who flirts with you son's girlfriend and is happy to borrow money off her...and presumably can't afford a sat night take away...he is sounding less appealing all the time.

Get a room

This comment is nearly as off as his behaviour.

AnyFucker · 04/02/2017 20:35

Who has lent who money ? And where we're you at the time this money was exchanging hands ?

Littlepeople12345 · 04/02/2017 20:59

He is enjoying his ego stroked it seems. . Does your ds know about all this??

AnyFucker · 04/02/2017 21:06

Strange fucking set up. Op are you going to elaborate ?

titsbumfannythelot · 04/02/2017 21:37

What is the son saying? There's something not right about this.

TataEs · 04/02/2017 21:42

the kisses on the text is fine in most contexts. lots of ppl do it as habit. and then people like my husband put kisses only on text back to people who put kisses first, and get really stressed about the implications of said kisses.

however the dynamic seems a little off. did u see them together? are they a little flirty with each other? not that i take issue with flirting but in this circumstance it seems inappropriate. i'm not sure multiple text was necessary.

for the love of god eat all those crisps yourself!

kali110 · 04/02/2017 23:24

Crisp thing wouldn't be bad if you didn't have all of this together.
So he only puts kisses at the end of texts to you, and now her? Then yes i think that is odd.
I think the flirting is odd.
Why is she lending him money?

Whippingpiccadilly · 04/02/2017 23:34

Does she ever text you?

TheCustomaryMethod · 04/02/2017 23:35

Everybody doesnt put x on the end of their texts.

No, they certainly don't. I find it extremely irritating when an 'x' is added to an inconsequential message. They're even creeping into work emails now. I'd be annoyed at DH adopting this habit irrespective of who was involved.

All sounds bad to me.

Putting kisses on the end of a text isnt the end of the world in my opinion. It would be the text itself if it was inappropriate that I wouldn't like.

Maybe you're intimidated by a 17 year old, and viewing at as flirting. When maybe they are actually just talking

Ive never bought a certain kind of soup before until last week. My DH loves it and reminds him of his childhood, and guess what his best friend also likes it. So am I trying to proposition his best friend with a can of soup?
If he was trying too proposition her I doubt it would be with monster munch.

I honestly think you are looking a bit jealous and clutching at nothing. The comments why is he even texting a 17 year old, because it's his sons girlfriend, and it doesn't sound like anything wrong is being said.
She thanked him for invite, what was he meant too do? Text back fuck off? Ignore her text?
I'm sure nobody would mind the mum having her number. Or roles reversed.

Ameliablue · 05/02/2017 14:45

A lot of people use a kiss as a standard sign off for texts or messages to people they know so I wouldn't read anything into it.
