There is this guy I met off of Bumble that I like but I come from a very old-school South Asian household. So, to start with I fought long and hard with rebellion that I wanted a guy of my own choice to marry and after 3 full years of arguing, my mom said to me in secret that she would help me. So after meeting this guy, I found out from him telling me that he has a rebellious older sister who they are working on and his parents are divorced but was too uncomfortable to tell me how his parents separated and said that his father is not in the picture and that his mother recently remarried. He also told me that his mom is a bit of a hothead at that too that he has to console her now and then. He is the same age as me and works as a Boilermaker and that he never went to college after his teacher said to him it would be a waste of time to do that and instead told him he should just find an apprenticeship which he is currently under. However, my mom disapproves of him and says that he would be horrible for me because he comes from a broken family and doesn't have a college education and lied to me as to why he would choose a trade like that and probably isn't even smart. Also, he at first didn't give me his work schedule at first but after telling him the situation he told me but said to me that he is breaking his confidentiality contract with the steel mill he works at to clear my doubts and he texts me past my bedtime but I cleared that with him as well and he respects it. Not to mention he is the first to be okay with my family situation and agrees with my family morals and values. I really do like him and he is the first guy to not treat me like a sex object and I wanted a second opinion. Is my mom right or should I go out with him and see where this goes?
