As with any woman you’d like to date but are unsure about, ask her to have a coffee with you, and have a “pre-date mutual assessment conversation.” Basically you need to ascertain her attitude to you – if she’s attracted to you and not seeing anyone or has no other committments. Your odds are better if she’s a “young at heart'” person who listens to modern music, wears modern fashions, looks younger than she is. Then she’ll jump at the chance. However, there are the same adverse possibilities as with younger women: she’s seeing someone, she’s not attracted to you, she thinks of you as far too young for her. If it goes well, ask her out again, on a date this time, and make that clear – generally women like men to be forthright, friendly and funny. If it goes REALLY well, you don’t need advice from us. Specifically, thirty-something women love to be told that you were amazed when you found out their actual age, and they look so much younger than their actual age. As with any compliment, it needs to be sincere, so only compliment things that are actually true.

Why would it be wrong? Friends’ friends and relatives are a great source of dates. If your friend has a positive opinion of you he should be pleased that you, and not some random jerk, are dating his sister. If he doesn’t, maybe you ought to look at why he thinks that – have you mistreated other girls?

They’re probably not well off financially and hairdressing is expensive. If you really care, you pay. Ask your cousin, away from the girl, ‘Would you like me to take {name} to the hairdresser? It’d make a nice present for her, I think.’ Then ask the little girl. Chances are good they’ll say yes. If either one says no, don’t push it.

Making something that normal people can safely do into a Great Big Forbidden Deal (as I suspect Jessica above would do) is far more dangerous than supervised moderation. Make wine a part of dignified dining – a glass with the family meal once a week, for instance, and you can start that once the kid is old enough to display proper table manners. This associates alcohol with good behavior – and it had better be good behavior, from you as parents most of all. The biggest influence is going to be your own attitude to alcohol. If you’re an alcoholic who drinks any time for no apparent reason, you’ll probably raise alcoholics or rabid tee-totallers (who are really alcoholics in waiting). The kids should never see you more than a little bit drunk, and then only ever when you have friends and/or extended family around for a party. They will mimic what you do, and not only that, they will inherit a lot of your natural inclinations. What you say, they will often test out for themselves, especially when they’re annoyed with you and feeling rebellious. So don’t _tell_ them not to drink too much, _show_ them by not drinking too much yourself, and letting them see the consequences for people who do: there are plenty of object examples in life. As with all other parenting, you need to follow the concept that you are raising future human beings, who will need to know the good and evil that humanity is capable of, and will not suddenly on the night of their 21st birthday acquire a set of adult coping skills all at once. Dishonest, hyperprotective parents raise dishonest, miserable, useless kids.
