[quote=Anonymous]The difficulty is, if the basis of your/your husband's distrust is, "Why would a young guy like that be honestly into you? He must be after your money," that will be a very hard message for your MIL to hear -- basically you're saying you can't believe he could possibly actually like HER. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I'm saying you can't convey that to your MIL and expect her not to be insulted & hurt. I think 9:51 has the right idea -- bring it up so that it has nothing to do with the new guy *specifically*. You can mention the fact that she's in a serious relationship as something that's spurring the conversation, but I'd present it like you'd be concerned even if she was in a relationship with someone her own age.[/quote]
