My mom wants to talk to my boyfriend

[MissIndependent]

Well let me shorten this up basically I started going out with this boy then on the third day of us going out my mother wanted to talk to him. so I broke up with him and told him we should jut be bff's because if my mom found out I went with him she would've been upset and plus I thought he would say something dumb to my mother.Did I make the right choice by breaking up with him? because I was afraid of him talking to my mom or did I do the right thing by just breaking up with him until my mom felt comfortable enough with him to accept him as my boyfriend?

No you messed up on that one. Let him talk to your parents, it would make them feel better to know who is taking up so much of their daughters time. They would be lessed worried about it if they knew who he was than if you kept it under closed doors. You need to fix things and have the pow-wow between him and your mom/dad. Relax and go slower, you reacted way too fast and broke his heart in the process.

why did you break up with the poor guy for no real reason?! I'm 22 and my mom still wants to talk with my boyfriends, it's called "being a mom". it's her job to make sure she approves the guys you date and see that they won't break your heart. some of them will and you'll just have to accept that fact. and even if she doesn't approve of him, she can't make you not date him, she just won't like it and may try to make you feel guilty for it, once again, it's called "being a mom".

You made the wrong choice. Don't ever break up with someone you care about for a reason as silly as fearing mom.
