Would you fix your son up with a blind date?

Well does he want to be fixed up? I mean some men are just happy being single. If he does, no you are not doing anything wrong at all. I think it's sweet honestly. But if he doesn't you will be doing the girl in question, a disservice and putting him in a bad spot. So I reckon it just depends on what he thinks.

If your son is working that much, are you sure he even wants to be in a relationship right now? He may want to focus on his life and career for now instead of a relationship. If he's working long hours, he may not have much to give of himself. That wouldn't be fair to a girlfriend. It may be better to wait until later. At 23 he has lots of time to get ahead in his career and to grow and mature as a person. Those things will certainly make him more ready for a relationship later. Hope this helps!

That is a hard call, I have met girls at work that seemed like they would be great for my sin but I am always hesitant. I thgink it might better for your daughter to introduce them and let them take it from there. Of course I had a bad experience setting one of my friends with my cousin. It turns out she was just trying to make her boyfriend jealous.

She'd be called a meddling sister? =p Actually I think it depends on your son. Do you think it'd be something he'd be offended by? Some kids would be offended if their mom tried to set them up on a date, where as some would think it's a sweet gesture. I think you should ask him first to make sure he wouldn't be mad. My mom once told a guy that was admiring my daughter, "She needs a daddy! If you'd like to apply..." That was a bit embaressing, to say the least.

i totally agree with wat u hav in mind for him as if he cant find the time to find a girl then u being his mom can surely help as long as hes comfortable with it.... and well we parents obiuosly want our kids to be happy n see them leading a good future, and as hes such an addorable thing as u saw im sure hed luv it if u cud help and he'll surely impress the girls as he cud get them home make them dinner talk over it and see if she whose come is his soumate! i saw u should right away get started... all the best!

I would because if hes that hard working he deserves to have a nice time and go out sometimes with a girl.

its fun to do that but for real, i dont think i will do that i will let my children to choose who they want but i will always remind them of what is right and wrong. i will keep on advicing them on how to avoid mistAKES. SINCE i been there and know what is the situation.

I guess my question would be, how does he feel about it? I would also say that the one guy I know who's mom and sister did this had a horrible first marriage. I also know the feeling. I knew one or two girls I would have liked my son to date. He figured it out on his own thought, and is now a married man. Good luck.

I think that would be great. Give it a shot it cant hurt or maybe not too much. If he doesnt like her Im sure he will let you know one way or another. Good luck with it.

How would your son react, if u think he will be ok with it then go ahead, but i would probably be offended if my mom did that to me =)I prefer to bring the guys home to meet my parents. not my parents bringing the guys home to meet me =) However, if he is that busy - will he even have time for a girl?

23 is still quite young. He seems to be very responsible and has his priorities right. Maybe your daughter could invite some friends home for dinner now and again and he might bump into them, but otherwise I don't know how you'd fix him up without him suspecting that that's what you're trying to do.

I'm an aspiring chef too!;) I think that it is not called meddling, but a gift. A token of gratitude, a reward to your son in his young hard-working life. I guess your son would really be surprised when he found out what you two are up to;) For your daughter, I think she's a loving, sweet and caring sister. How thoughtful of her to think about his brother's busy schedule and treat your son for an exciting blind date;) I hope that you two succeed on your plans and found someone for your son's blind date.

There are a few things to ask yourself before setting your son or brother up with a blind date. First, would he appreciate the fact that you are setting him up with a blind date? Second, would he be angry with you if you set him up with a blind date? Third, did he ask you for help or if you knew anyone that he might consider dating? This is what I would say to my son before I would even think about setting him up on a blind date: 'If I knew of someone that you might be interested in dating would you like to go out on a blind date with her?' If he said no then the subject would be dropped. It's actually much better for your son to find his own dates when the time suits him because he is a grown man and should be making those important decisions himself without his family getting into the middle of his life no matter what his family thinks or wants for him. It's his life. Look at it this way, you could be setting him up with problems in his life that he doesn't want or need later on down the road. Then you might not feel too great about setting him up with a blind date if that happens. I say No, I would not set my son up with a blind date unless he asked me to help him out. Otherwise it is definately meddling, interfering, sticking one's nose where it doesn't belong, or butting in. It's not a good idea unless he agrees with the blind date idea from the beginning.

Just tell your son about what you want to do if he thinks its ok then u can proceed further but if he thinks your being a lil too concerned then leave him alone... he is old enough to understand this needs... so dont worry

She would be called the co-meddler. ha ha He is only 23 and has a lot of time ahead of him to find the right person. I think it is great that he is concentrating on his career. He needs to be comfortable with where he is at before he can be comfortable with anyone in his future. I know we all want what is best for our kids. But just give him time. It will happen. :) You'll see, the right person will come along even if he is not a social person. So, mom, just hang in there and encourage him. But do not set him up on a blind date. Because if that blind date turns out horrible, he will never let you do it again. ha ha And if he is not ready, the blind date will be horrible anyways. ha ha

well i would certainly do that....who wouldnt wanna see his or her son being happy.... i think you should do that.....just be careful though...giving him a bad day will annoy him...and he will never let you do that again...

I think its not meddling, i think you are a supportive mom who is trying to help him out, but I think you should first talk to your son and have his views whether he would like it or not.

Are you taking any resumes ... LOL...Just kidding! I think that you are just looking out for him and not meddling at all! I bet he is a sweetheart and who doesn't want a sweetheart of their very own? Good luck with this and hope it all works out for hm soon! God bless!

It's so sweet that you and your daughter care enough to want him to be happy. Believe it or not there are a lot of families out there that could really care less. You and daughter know him better than anyone in the entire world and you know what kind of lady he would like to have in his life. Don't know how he would feel about it, though. You both need to keep eyes open and if/when you find a lady that might fit the bill, so-to-speak, you could probably somehow get them together on the 'sly', without him even knowing it. If you did it just right. I think it would be fun to try. You never know; you may end up finding your daughter-n-law someday...lol. All the best to you and yours.

I disagree, none of you should set him up, if he felt the need of meeting someone he would do something about it himself. Besides, it's not like he's getting olde and older.. he's still 23! Give him some time and suggest taking some time off work and/or making new friends
