Sooo... I have one of those super loving yet embarrassing mothers. The one that tries to set up dates for their handsome single son. Yeah. Shes THAT mom lol. Well I have been having trouble with this. And a coworker of mine has had the same thing happen to him after his divorce. Since my divorce I have dated but nothing serious has come along and recently I have kind of stopped trying because I feel I have wasted an unforgivable amount of time on the wrong people. Well My mother want me to meet some girl that she goes bowling with, a younger girl my age of course. She is very insistent on this even though she knows how I feel. But she just thinks, oh well you just have to find the right one. And I'm like, eeeh... I don't really HAVE to....Well she keeps bugging me so I agreed to humor her with this girl she keeps talking about recently. She says we will get along great and blah blah but she is really shy. Right off the bat I'm thinking, Well this is not going to work mom.... I'm shy too. haha
Anyway she wants me to meet her soon and I am not sure how to handle it. I don't want to act disinterested and hurt her feelings but that is kinda how I feel but it's nothing because of her. I have never met her how could I not like her. But I don't pretend well. I don't know how to react to this situation. I don't even feel like dates should be "set up". they should happen naturally. I'm going to meet her to make my mother happy for now. But she will never stop until she has a grandchild.....Sorry ma not a chance.... Well what exactly should I do here? Not sure how to handle it. I don't honestly have any interest in going and Im not even in a good position to be dating right now haha. Been slow at work all winter so I'm broke as hell for one, and I just don't have the time. Who has the time? I got to much shit to get done. Thoughts? Opting out is not an option because that will just start and argument with mom. No one wants that.
