[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BTDT. No you can’t say anything. She invites him and you are a gracious host. You can secretly hope it blows over. If she is as intelligent self aware and emotionally mature as you say she is, she will make the right choices for herself. I get it OP she has more potential and is more accomplished than the bf. We sat back and let it play out. DD called it quits on her own timeline. And yes we are relieved! [/quote]

Thank you, kind PP for this post. This is my instinct, but I can vent my real feelings on DCUM! Her bf is a few years older, but he's a dull bro, good looking but no spark, not in any way her intellectual or creative equal. I see her shrinking to fit, and it's hard to watch her become so diminished by this man. I fear it will be hard to hide my feelings about him if he comes to our house for Christmas. He has take up all her time, and she seems buried by him. She is professionally accomplished, but mature?  She's flattered by his intense focus on her, but doesn't realize it's not healthy and can't last. [/quote]

So you're jealous that she spends more time with him and less with you?[/quote]
