I'm dating a younger guy(I'm 17 and he's 16). Neither of us drive. We still do tons of stuff together though. But every time he can't get a ride for us from one of his parents, I ask my mom. And usually this is the downfall of the date. She knows he can't drive, and that both of his parents work. but still she bluntly refuses most of the time. And if she DOES say yes it's usually an aggravated "FINE" and then this whole thing about how she hates how boys treat girls now. There was one time that she said "If he really valued your company he would be taking the time to plan it out and making sure HE could get you there and then back home. You shouldn't have to have any part of it" I don't really think she is right on her statement even though I know its mostly opinion, his parents working isn't his fault, and there are some days where he is busy so the days that he's home and has to get a ride from my mom is just the way it has to be or we don't hang out. Besides that I want to be the one contributing to the relationship too. He usually plans them cause he knows I don't mind what we do as long as we do something. But it's not the end of the world for my mom to drive us from time to time. Whats her problem? Do you think she's right?
by the sounds of what she's saying she believes in the old style of dating, where the men always take the girls out, pay the bill etc. Has she had a bad past with men? It maybe her issues that are resurfacing when you ask her to drive you as she feels the girl needs to be pampered and taken care of by the man.
maybe a little gift from the both of you to your mum will help? Show her she's appreicated and you still value and care for her. Reassuring her will help her be nice back to you.
I know where you are coming from, and your mom is being a little selfish. I can remember when I didn't have a car my family would give me a hard time about giving me a ride because it was just such an inconvience-even though they weren't doing anything important a lot of the time-, and I dreaded having to ask them for rides. She is just self-consumed, and you are interrupting her "daily rituals". Just work on trying to a get liscense and suck it up a little longer, I know it sucks; but that is all you can do.
i have the same problem. I'm 16 and my boyfriend is 17 and we both don't drive. except the problem is that I hate asking his mom to drive us places and she works too. my mom works but she never drives me anywhere so I sometimes ask her and its the same deal. so I don't think ur mom is right at all. I can't seem to figure out what my mom's problem is either but once I find out ill let you kno. ha
