[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 217166, member: 1233"] I think you handled it fine. For some reason there are always kids who like hickeys or think they show you "belong" to each other. (I always just thought they were dumb - why would you let someone bruise you to show you belong. Just pee on his/her leg why don't you. And bruises, OUCH, I was too much a baby to ever think THAT was OK. LOL!) You might want to mention to each of them that not only are hickeys disrespectful they are actually PROOF that you hurt the person you love. When you get right down to what they are, they are BRUISES. Yes, inflicted in "passion" but still it is not OK to bruise the one you love or let someone else bruise you. Overall, you handled it pretty well. You kept communications open, the boyfriend IS a man/boy, but he is a respectful and responsible seeming man/boy. He also has guts, because it takes guts to go to your girlfriend's mom and apologize for that kind of behavior. MANY boys, even into college age, would NOT do that, wouldn't have the courage to do it. there is a country song that comes to mind. The dad is talking to the new boyfriend, says the daughter is his pride and joy, her mama's world, she deserves respect and thats what she'll get. Then the song goes on to his having a daughter who is startign to date and he is giving HER boyfriend the same spiel. You can't stop her from dating. You can keep talking with her, listening to her, and giving her guidance. She seems to be pretty well grounded, so she will problem be fine inthe long run. [/QUOTE]
