[quote=Anonymous]Op, know what you want. Think about who you like, who you would like to keep in your life. And act on it. Initiate plans soon after graduation or at least soon after college move-in to see who's receptive. Make the effort, for those you care about. Many will fade. It's much better to act sooner rather than let too much time slip away. And although you have the kids in common and lots on your minds re: college and that transition, try to make conversation about other things. You have lots of things you could be talking about besides your (now) adult children. At some point, talk of adult children feels like sharing gossip. Feels like gossiping about another adult and that's not a good pattern to fall into longterm.[/quote]
