This was supposed to be answer to Divine. What happened I don't know...

For Divine:

Thanks. Life is very complicated. His girlfriend's parents live a few hours away. Her mother had heart surgery right before Covid hit...and in the middle of this pandemic her father has been treated for cancer with chemo, surgery, and reconstructive surgery. I think today I will send her a note. As an only child I am sure it is very difficult to not see her parents but she has been staying away because of Covid. We have been getting to know one another tentatively with notes, gifts, and cards. Perhaps we are both being cautious which is a good thing.

I am not moving into the city where they are...but somewhere outside the city probably an hour or more away. This way they can visit or I can visit...but we won't be in each other's business.


My son and his other girlfriends have lived in the same town without any negativity. In one case one of his girlfriends and I got along very well and I would have loved to have had her for a daughter-in-law.

I am going to let worry about this go. Thanks, Divine, this is really something I can let go worrying about for now.
