Dear Queenie,
Recently I accidentally met up with my son’s ex-girlfriend and we had a couple of drinks together and really got along well.
I’d like to see her again and my son says he’s all done with her.
Queenie, do you think it would be okay for me to date her?—Undecided dad
Dear Dad,
Technically there is nothing wrong with this. However, think how creepy it would be for your son to have to get accustomed to seeing his ex-girlfriend in the position of his father’s girlfriend and possibly his de facto, if not legal, stepmother – especially if they had been sleeping together when she was his girlfriend!
