[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He says they won't get married for several years so why go crazy. They are obviously serious about each other so why be disruptive? [/quote] This. Your son already said they don't plan to marry for a few years, so leave this alone. Be very supportive and happy when you talk to them. Buy them an engagement present. You say you love the gf and she might be your DIL, so don't ruin the relationship. If it doesn't work out between them, then you don't want to do anything that puts you in the position of being blamed for the breakup or prevents your son from ever confiding in you or allowing you to be close to him and any future girlfriend or wife again. Whether their relationship lasts or not, your best option is to be supportive and act happy about this. OP, you're at a milestone right now. How you handle this could determine whether you become one of these MILs who can't understand why she's not close with her son and his family.[/quote]
