Message: From GoLocalProv by John Simpson, GoLocalProv Advice Columnist: Dear John, I am a woman in my 40s. Happily married, but my relationship with my father-in-law is cordial at best. He’s divorced and fancies himself, I suspect, to be something of a gift to the ladies. He typically comes to our house on holidays, so he has gotten to know our circle of friends. Well, I was somewhere between annoyed and angry when a close friend (who is a bit older than I am) informed me that my father-in-law called to ask her out on a date! I’m not sure exactly why this bugged me so much. I think it’s partly the sheer presumption of him thinking my friend, who is attractive, very accomplished, and significantly younger than he is, would be interested (she is not), in addition to the fact that I don’t want our lives to intersect any more than they do now. But most of all, I think he should have at least given us a little advance warning that he was going to do this, don’t you think? Is it unreasonable of me to expect that? My husband doesn’t think so, and I want a second opinion. Signed, Irked http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/dear-john-my-father-in-law-is-trying-to-date-my-friends
