[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I told my son not to date anyone until at least after finishing grad school and taking care of his health, body and mind.  Focus on himself and what he wants to achieve with his life, improve his social skills, hobbies, etc... In other words, focus and improve on himself, first and foremost.  If he could do that, women would come to him in droves. [b] He can have ladies who are friends but dating and having a gf is a big distraction from what he wants to achieve his goals.[/b][/quote]

This is dumb. Who waits until their 58th college degree to date? Stop projecting your fears and wack experiences on your kid.

And the bolded is extra dumb. Who are you to say when he can have "ladies."  :lol:  Get a grip. [/quote]

How is that dumb?

My "tiger" Chinese father said the exact same thing to me when I was a teenager and I thought he was a crazy dad.  My teenager years revolved around nothing but soccer, golf, tennis, music, art, dancing, etc....  He even kept a leash on me when I went away to college and wouldn't want to pay my college tuition if he found out I had a girlfriend.  He always said this to me every time we talked that I should always be "investing in myself first".  My dad was a freaking lunatic and I hated him, or so I thought.

Right after the graduation ceremony, he handed me a 50K check and told me I should go exploring the world for the next twenty four months before deciding what I should do with my life.  For the first six months of graduation, I rediscovered my love for golf, art and especially music with the guitar.  For the next eighteen months, I traveled to Asia, Europe, Africa and South America.  I met my fiance, now my wife, during my stay in South America.  Her family is filthy rich that I ended up working for her family.  We're now happily residing in the US.  My wife said to me she was attracted to me because of my multi-talents.

Always invest in yourself first and foremost, and you will have no issues with dating or meeting high quality people.[/quote]
