The time is getting much closer that I need to buy a shotgun. Daughter is showing more interest in love songs and boys. She has a crush on Ross Lynch. (I sure prefer him over any other teen idol!)
She told me one of her favorite songs is "Love Love Love". I looked the song up on YouTube this morning and can't say I'm all that thrilled. Sounds like a song she was probably exposed to by her mother.
I'm going to have to expose daughter to some healthier, happier songs about love. To give her a more positive view and soundtrack to that aspect of her life before it begins. I don't want to see her go through life actively seeking out dysfunctional relationships like so many people do.
On that note, maybe my thinking on dating is skewed. Maybe I do need to date, possibly involve daughter in the process, so she can see what a healthy approach is. Such as getting involved in group activities where you can socialize with other people. Making friends. Possibly finding an attraction and building from the ground up. Quite possibly failing a time or two and living through it without being destroyed by it.
