[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please don't rake me over the coals for this. So DS's best friend, I'd say they're equally handsome young men, gregarious, both sporty, my DS is more accomplished in academics ([b]attends more selective private[/b]). They hang together all the time. Well, maybe not as much this summer.

Over the weekend his friend brought his new gf to our beach house. Super sweet girl, super cute, very outgoing! Plays soccer and cheers. After, we asked DS if he's met any of her friends (hint, hint). He honestly said no. Isn't it odd that his best friend's gf hasn't tried to introduce him to her friends to get the double date/couple thing going?

Back in my day it was super common to set up friends with each other. Am I reaching? I think my DS is sometimes super immature for his age. I'm wondering if this is another signal of it.[/quote]

And this is relevant because ... why?[/quote]

In some circles, a boy at for example, a Big 3 private, would be a status symbol demonstrating some level of family money, connections, athletic prowess and baseline intelligence.[/quote]

Are you from around here? When I was growing up, the schools that we associated with guys that were a “good catch” were not at all the schools that parents freak over. Sidwell? We never saw those kids. They had no time to be as social as we wanted. GDS? Too nerdy. The girls all chased after the douchey Landon guys or the fun Gonzaga guys. We didn’t care if they were ivy bound or their families came here on the mayflower. We cared if they scored in the lacrosse game we were watching, if there parents were always out of town and they could throw parties, and how they looked with their shirt off. Duh. [/quote]

That wasn't me. -OP[/quote]
