[quote=Anonymous]Question for the OP - How are you living your life? Do you enjoy doing things for yourself? Do you throw dinner parties or have friends over to watch sports?

If you don't, I suggest you start trying to find joy in things for yourself. I'm not saying this as a dig, but I put my kids first and as they get older, I struggle to remember what I like to do and I'm a little lost. As your kids get older and have their own families, you may start struggling with what I'm struggling with.

If you do, how does that work? Let's say you invite friends over for a BBQ or dinner party and then your kids, with 4 or 5 other 20+ YOs show up to use the pool. Let's not kid anyone. When you invite even a few friends over, it's a party. What do you tell your guests? Do you cut your evening short? Do you move your guests into another part of the house (from an outside BBQ to an indoor event) so that your guests don't have to "party" with the 20 YOs?

I'm just trying to figure out how you manage these interactions - forget the gf - curious about how you handle it with other friends/guests. [/quote]
