So long story short, my gf was trying to make me a surprise today, but I had gone to my "other home", i.e. my parents.

 

She called me asking me where I am. I said "home". She said she was at my "home". I explained I was at my parents place instead. Is it a problem? Should I send her a picture of me at my parents, or just let it slide and not make it a big deal.?

You LIED and got caught about something so trivial. WHY?

 

She may or may not make a big deal out of it. What was this surprise? Just to welcome you? party?

 

What motivated you to lie?

Has she heard you refer to your parent's place as "home" before?

 

I still do, even though it's been years since I've lived there.

It's stupid, I'm hating myself right now. I'm stupid. I call my parents place home from time to time and didn't wanna sound like I am too dependent (since I've been here over 2-3x this week). I know, I know stupid me.

 

She brought me over some food since I told her I was studying and she was being thoughtful...:love:

I don't think I've ever referred to it as home in front of her... not sure.

She sounded a bit disappointed but didn't ask too much. I think I'll just let it be for now. Talking over txt about something like this does not sound very good.

Well, you were caught in a lie. There's no room for misinterpretation on her part, so please don't try to explain it away.

 

But why lie about this?

 

Anyway, did you see her that day after the lie? How did she behave? Did you apologize?

This was a few hours ago... I am afraid she's thinking I'm at some chick's place or something far fetched like that.

 

And it was not that much of a lie. I've told her plenty of times before I'm at home when at my parents. It is really my home...

No, it was a lie. She clearly saw a distinction between what she perceived as your home and your parents. AND you corrected yourself once you realized you were caught. So, you did lie to her.

 

Dude, call, text her and ask how she's doing?! She tried to do something for you that was thoughtful and here you are wondering if she thinks whether you're with another girl or not.

 

Show that you are sorry or at least appreciative of her gesture and get with her ASAP. Unless you don't want to...

Totally with my fraternal twin or whatever on this one.

Be straight with her. Tell her that you sometimes call that home too and you did it not thinking. My question is if you never said it in front of her before why start now? Also if you go back to not saying it, she will be suspicious of you I would think.
