Subject he 10 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: needs some friends. Dear Stephen Shirley, My husband and I 11 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 1: are in our late forties and we've been married for 12 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: twenty years. We have one son that was active in 13 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: sports and he worked with my husband helping to build 14 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,239 Speaker 1: his trucking business. Our son is nineteen years old and 15 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: he recently left the nest and moved out two hours. 16 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: Moved about two hours from us to be closer to school. 17 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: He decided to change his major and transferred to a 18 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: better school for his degree program, and I was ecstatic. 19 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: My husband tried to make him stay closer home, and 20 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: I had to talk some sense into him so our 21 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: son could pursue his dreams as soon As my son 22 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: moved into his new place in his new city, my 23 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: husband went into a depressed mood, and I did my 24 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: best to keep him company and entertain him as much 25 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: as I could. I realized that my husband does not 26 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: have real friends. He has guys that work with him 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: and my son. He stopped talking to his buddies while 28 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: he was getting his business going, so they eventually stopped 29 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: coming around. All he did was go to our son's games, 30 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: go out to eat with our son, work with our son, 31 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: and watch movies with our son. It's hard for my 32 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: husband to sit home and relax without trying to FaceTime 33 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: our son. My son sent me a text telling me 34 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: that he was moving in with his girlfriend and he's 35 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: hoping his dad will reconnect with his friends so he 36 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: won't call him so much. I didn't tell my husband 37 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: about the text because I didn't want to crush him. Yesterday, 38 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: he said that we should go visit my son for Easter, 39 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: and I made up a lot of excuses why we shouldn't. 40 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: The only thing that keeps him occupied is sex, but 41 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: I'm not going to keep doing that all the time, 42 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: so he needs his friends. Should I plan a playdate 43 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: for him? How do I get him out of this 44 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: house more. You're certainly right about one thing, and that's 45 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: the subject of your letter. The subject is he needs 46 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: some friends, and your husband really really does need some friends. 47 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm happy that your husband and son are really, 48 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: really close, but this is way too much. I mean, 49 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: your son moved away to live his life and follow 50 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: his dreams, and you've been an excellent wife who's tried 51 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: to fill in the blanks of the board and your 52 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: husband's you know, feeling. But no matter what you do, 53 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 1: that isn't enough. And you, guys, you and your son 54 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: obviously can't go on like this because your son has 55 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: a real girlfriend now and he won't be coming back 56 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: or having you guys over anytime soon. I mean, notice 57 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: your son didn't invite you guys over for Easter. Your 58 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: husband that you're going, I say, instead of planning a date, 59 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 1: because you asked about planning a play date for your husband, 60 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: Plan a party, plan a dinner and bite some of 61 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 1: his old friends that he used to work with and 62 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: some of you know, some of the his old buddies. 63 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: I mean, he has some from the past. Maybe invite 64 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: them over see if they'll come. You got to find 65 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: out what they're doing and bite some other couples over um, 66 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: try to connect, try to you know, get some parties, 67 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: going a dinner, going something, you know, so it can 68 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: distract him from from being so needy where your son is. 69 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: I've really never heard of this before, a father being 70 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: so attached to a son that he won't let go 71 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: like this. I mean, all kids leave the next eventually, 72 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: but if you have a dinner party or a house 73 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: party or something, you know, maybe that way you can 74 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: slowly get your husband to start hanging out with his 75 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: guy friends or some people his age at least.

That's when the father is attached to the sun. 151 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: He had his whole life wrapped around the boy. He 152 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: was living vicariously through the sun. That's no, I just 153 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: made that up just now, Okay, okay, is that really 154 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: a thing? I mean, you know, well, it's it's very 155 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: very rare. It's very rare, but it is the direct 156 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: opposite of a mama's boy. But the daddy's boy. There 157 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: are men who are attaching live vicariously through their sons, 158 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: go to all sporting events and all like this and 159 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: their whole life.
