Son 16 caught us inflagrante

[seekingwisdom4me]

New house, no bedroom lock (will be later today) and 16 year old son hears us last night and stands at doorway saying
"what are you doing?"
Thank god the duvet was on top but I said "itchy legs".
He couldn't even look at me when I saw him earlier.
My god - sooooo embarrassed.
What can I do?????? Dying off in case he says something......

I can completely understand the embarrassment and while I wouldn't necessarily my child to know when.. I do think it is good to know in a good relationship even after so many years this is normal and part of a loving relationship.

Why would he even stand there when I'm pretty sure it's obvious

He'll get over it, don't worry, for a but it will be embarrassing but then you'll both move on with your lives

I think I'd say to him 'well then DS, I'll be getting a lock for the bedroom door and shall I get some brain bleach for you while I'm at the shop?!'

I'm sure he's just as embarrassed as you.

I don't get why he would stand there looking and then ask either...mine would run a mile if I had anyone to shag

Front it out, saunter in later with the smug rosy glow of one who's getting some and say nothing. Why be embarrassed? You're entitled to a sex life.

I think it genuinely didn't occur to him op would be shagging but then it dawned on him afterwards, hence not being able to look at her.

Thanks so much, just had to share...thing is he will probably say something very dry to me but he wouldn't chance it with his dad. Dear me, my face is actually going red when I think about it.

Catmuffin, you are spot on...in the last house our rooms were not next door to each other. As for wooden floors and sliderobes that shake...oh jee...

So he didn't knock on your bedroom door, and doesn't know that people have sex?

Laughing at 'itchy legs'

BertrandRussell tbf the bleeding dog had pushed the door open just beforehand, husband said blame her but she wasn't on top of the bed, hence the itchy legs....as for sex, yep he deffo knows about it, it's just I don't think he needed to see us.
