Today, I watched a young shop assistant try her hardest to flirt with my 20-year-old son. When he continued to be totally oblivious, she outright invited him back to her flat. When he asked, "What for?" a piece of my soul died at how completely I have failed as a father. FML

"Wanna come **** me?" "Err...what are the benefits?"

Some people are just completely oblivious about flirting, doesn't mean they don't know about sex. Besides, it may be all a show because his dad is right there! It's awkward.

Flip the situation. Would you still feel like you "failed" if it had been your daughter being hit on by a guy? There's nothing wrong with someone NOT wanting to shag everyone of whatever gender they're interested in- if they're interested in any gender at all. There are more reasons for any given person to decline sex with any other given person than to accept.

personally, you failed as a dad by encouraging your son to take anything that throws itself at him. You might want to reevaluate your own priorities.

I feel like I've seen your sons FML about this same thing

Or he might not be interested? You've failed as a father if you think that he has to be interested if a girl hits on him. He could also be gay. Just get over it. Let him do him

mybe because his father was standing right there

Gosh, I bet you are one of those people with irrational, outdated mentality where you think sons should **** every woman they see and daughters are never to see a penis until they are married. Or if possible not even then.

geez, what a lucky kid, i would kill for that to happen to me, i would take her up on the offer though. never would happen to me. no one that i find attractive ever finds me attractive

There should be a website called how to tell if your son/daughter is gay. Because this would be at the top of the list
