[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t seriously start dating until I was in my
30s. In fact, most of my friends were like this. We all have been happily married for decades now.

[b]You don’t need to do a ton of dating to know what will work best for you in a partnership. Taking the time to know who you are is valuable too. Let your DD figure out which way works best for her.[/b][/quote]

+1 I didn't date at all in HS, just a couple times in college and early 20s, then decided to really focus on putting myself out there and making connections in my late 20s. I had a good sense of myself and was good at listening to my gut in my reactions to people. Met DH at 30 and married a year and a half later. Going on 25 yrs now

My kids (boy and girl) didn't date in HS. By choice - both were asked out and didn't want to. DD isn't dating in college either. DS does a bit, very casually, from what I can tell. I figure like me they will get there eventually.

I read once that you don't necessarily need to practice dating but you do need experience with relationships with friends. That rang true to me. Both my kids are excellent friends so I'm confident they will both find romantic partners when they are ready.[/quote]
