It's a strange feeling
Which are correct:
1) It's a strange feeling losing to your own son.
2) It's a strange feeling to lose to your own son.
3) To lose to your own son is a strange feeling.
4) Losing to your own son is a strange feeling.
I think people say things like (1) and (2), and yet 'losing to your son' is not a feeling.
Gratefully,
Navi.
