[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have girl/boy twins who will be rising seniors and 18 in September and neither one has dated at all... as in not one date aside from nights at homecoming/prom/etc.  
I get where you're coming from in your post.  I too don't want them to have serious relationships but neither has any clue how to interact with the opposite gender at a romantic level or how to flirt.  Like zero. They otherwise have a ton of friends, do well in school, are athletes, attractive etc.  
I don't worry about this per say but it's just that their life experience in this regard is SO SO much different than my own.  If anything I think it's kind of a bummer to not be holding hands, flirting, kissing boys (or girls) etc in high school.  I have such fond memories of this.  Dating in high school was just fun--no pressure, expectations, etc.  The older you get the more complicated it is (and quickly). 
Such is life and I'm not losing sleep over it but I get having a passing thought or two.  I think it's reasonable to wonder about this once your kid gets close to 18.  [/quote]

Ok, you have framed it well and I agree with this sentiment.  My rising freshman just started dating someone and it has me a little apprehensive.  I didn’t expect it this young but I guess there is never perfect timing of these things [/quote]
