So I have a 16 year old (nearly 17) I’ve been broken up with his father for nearly 3 years, his father is controlling and manipulative and not a very nice person. I don’t discuss his father in front of him and try to be civil about him if he is talked about which is rarely but I know his Dad doesn’t give me the same respect. So his dad has had multiple girlfriends over the 3 years and I’ve never introduced a guy to my son until last week, I introduced a really lovely guy that I really like and my son was nice to him and chatted to him etc, he stayed over (which my son knew about) and my son literally lost the plot in the middle of the night accusing me of having sex with him. I explained to my son that I’m an adult and I’m sorry if it bothers him that I’ve moved on but I’m not going to not live my life 3 years later, it’s not like I’ve introduced hundreds of guys; this is the first one ever, 5 days later he is still moody and not talking to me properly; I’m just ignoring the behaviour now because I’ve tried the other ways and they haven’t helped. Has anyone got any advice? He’s normally a lovely kid and I’m struggling with the way he’s behaving. I don’t want to disregard his feelings but on the other hand he’s ignoring me, behaviour is rude and awful, stomping around the house, he’s not my father and this is my house and the first person I’ve ever introduced, I mean my son is able to have sex he’s that old so I don’t understand why he thought me dating someone wouldn’t be that ever. Thank you for any advice or help,
