Boyfriend/Girlfriend relationships

[Guest guest]

Hi all. Have any of you had experience with your Aspie teenagers having a BF or

GF? My 16 year old daughter says she has a boyfriend. She met him at a

friend's church and I've never met him. I have called her friend's mother and

she doesn't know him either but has promised to try and ask around about him for

me. I hate to say it but I am immediately suspicious of a boy who wants to be

her boyfriend since she has such huge social issues. On the other hand, I don't

even know if he actually considers himself her boyfriend. In the past she has

formed attachements to boys and very quickly I've had counselors in the youth

group telling me that she was texting such and such boy constantly and telling

him she loved him. I have talked with her over and over and over again about

how the phrase " I love you " should only be used in a long term serious

relationship yet she continues to do it. Last weekend she said he had asked her

to go to the movies and it scared me to death. I felt like my 11 year daughter

(maturity wise) had been asked out on a date. Sorry this is so long but any

experience and advice you might have would be so helpful.

Thanks,

in AL
