No its not abnormal at all, you've probably thought of this nice young man as almost part of the family and you can't just turn off those feelings.
I kept in contact with my sons girlfriend because we became good friends, they both moved on to have lovely families with other people and its lovely she keeps me up to date. I guess it would be different if she were a man as he's likely to just disappear from your lives.
Your husband is right, she will get over it but its ok for you to be upset too. Don't be hard on yourself flowers

He might be right though , she is very young . It is sad when things don't go right for our lovely GC and we feel we should wave a magic wand

I have been so upset this weekend but why should I be? My eighteen year old granddaughter and her boyfriend of four years have split up. She is heartbroken,her mum is upset and so am I.He is a lovely lad and we will miss him too.
Is this abnormal for me, her nana to be upset as well. My husband just says 'She'll get over it'.Sometimes I wish I was a man.
