Dingo444 Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 Hey everyone...I've recently met someone who I went on a date with and clicked with on all aspects. Everything couldn'tve went better on the date and we made arrangements to meet again this week at sometime. When I broke this news to my mom, she didn't seem to thrilled about it. I always feel like nothing is good enough for her or that whatever I'm doing isn't right because of her reaction. She was happy I was meeting someone, but immediately jumped into the "don't get serious!" talk. My mom then proceeded to ask me "why are you so needy?", which stung a little. I'm not needy I just want love and a relationship. I had just gotten out of a 2 year relationship in November and have been finally able to pick up and move on with my life and going on dates has been something I've been doing for about two months now. I guess my question to you all would be..how do I approach my mom about this? She always seems like she is against me being serious or dating someone. It is disheartening when I'm excited about something, but I need to be afraid to tell my own family about it just because I can predict her reaction. My mom is single and maybe that has something to do with it? Or perhaps she doesn't like the fact that I am getting into something that could be serious....either way..I never know how to just tell her to knock it off and try and be happy for me.
