No it's not wrong- it is a maternal instinct to want your children to be happy. I have 2 daughters and my oldest (26) will be married next June, but my youngest is 22 and just started on her career and I feel EXACTLY like you. OK, you feel a little worried because your oldest and youngest are married already and the middle isnt. I have noticed that the OLDER they get the more set in their ways, the same goes for the girl they are interested in- which makes it harder for them to "click". I wouldn't worry until he is over 32. He obviously is happy and having fun and he probably is waiting for "the One" Some of our children have a perception of the Perfect mate and he will keep looking for that one till he gets tired or finds her and that's why I say about 29, 30, and then he will start being more realistic in his ideals. The only thing you can do is the same I can do-- KEEP OUR MOUTH SHUT WHEN THEY BRING THEIR DATES HOME- It is not our place to choose their spouse- no matter What we think! Good luck to you--remember, he is happy, it's just not the life yet that you want him to have, but he'll get there, be patient, and be Quiet.

I am sorry, but I don't think there's much you can do for him short of forcing him into a relationship, which definitely will not go well, unless he needs to admit something about himself to you... If he lives at home, maybe try to push him away a bit or let him have more dependence on himself. Otherwise, I am sure that he can have happiness as he is.

How do you know that your son isn't happy? Maybe marriage isn't what he wants right now.
Let him enjoy life! He's 25--that's hardly a time to worry. He has his whole life ahead of him, and if he wants to date casually, then that's grat!
Calm down and focus on your grandchildren, not your son.
There is nothing wrong with wanting your son to be happy, but don't let what you think would make him happy blind you with what really makes HIM happy.

It's never wrong to want your son happy!! Maybe his love just hasn't come around the corner, and you don't want him hooked up with just anyone to be married or have children. If I had to do it over again, I would have dated more to find my true love, which I haven't found yet....I wouldn't have just married the first guy to ask...but would have stayed in the playing field to find my true love!

What makes you think he's not happy? He may be telling you he wants a relationship for the simple reason of making you happy.
Unless you have a friend with a nice daughter, leave him alone and let him do it on his own, Ma.

Marriage isn't for everyone.
Plus he is only 25, most people get married at 30. The more you push him, the more he will resist.

Then don't go on Yahoo! Answers asking strangers about him. Leave him be. At this point in his life, any help from parents short of financial is counter productive.

aww.. thats sad.... maybe you should spend time with your son more? and maybe he could be happy.. this thanxgiving is the best time to spend it with the whole FAMILY ! lol trust me do this and your son MAY change... but if it doesn't, just remind your son how much you love him and still tell him that your still his mother and he's still your little baby! lol!

getting married and having children is not for everyone. not everyone his happy going in that direction, besides he is young and should live it up while he has the chance.
