How will you react if your parent force you to date someone you don’t want to?

[Anonymous]

I’m a 19 years old college student and I live with my parents. There is this handsome dude in my university, and my mom had a crush on him! Seriously! It’s like she is in love with him and she is forcing me to date him! He is very attractive and all my female friends think the same and he came from a wealthy family, so I feel that my mother is pressuring me! I attract him and that’s how my first relationship béguin and I didn’t felt anything. This boy doesn’t know that even some cute messages I sent him are dictated by my mother! She was always very protective with me, and now she is pressuring me to be closer to this guy, and when I says that I’m not in love with him, she yells at me, telling me that I would be the most stupid girl ever to reject a guy like that! He is handsome and wealthy, but I don’t feel anything for him, and I had to make the first steps that my mother ordained me to do so I can seduce him. I’ve been dating him for 2 weeks and my mom is asking me everyday if he messaged me while I don’t care about him! Please I don’t know if it’s normal but I doubt. I mean.. she’s my mother but I never dated anyone before, because I was never attracted to someone. Is my situation normal?

Normal

Not normal

Tell her he admitted he is sterile, but still wanted to have a three way with you and his boyfriend and that he thinks herpes is gone now because he thinks the heroin cured it and that the anti psychotic medications are making him less violent and the divorce of his baby momma is going to go through just as soon as he can talk to her and get the restraining order lifted with the help of his parol officer.

Pressuring is pretty normal, my mum sometimes tries to get me to date girls she knows one way or the other. Usually I just laugh it off and go about my business. To be fair I will actually meet the girl most of the time to see if there is something there, my mum does know me fairly well after all.

My grandmother tries to do things like that. I just don’t do what she says.

Tell her to naff off! I will date whoever I want to date!

Thank you for MHG!

I'm an open minded person, but that is actually pretty messed up. Plus, nobody's perfect, so it's got me pretty suspicious. that really does sound like an episode of the twilight zone right there. You're welcome to try and get to know him, see if you'll like him but this sounds creepy, to put it bluntly.

[KaterinaJones]

Can’t be asked to read the full thing but from I did read, sounds not normal, date whoever you fucking like 😂

[Kit_Kat88]

How does he act with you? I would want to date a guy like that if he's kind. I'd understand if he's rude or arrogant. Just make up an excuse to why it ended.

[Kit_Kat88]

It would bother me and my mom did control who I dated before. The messaging situation you described reminds me of then.

[Nita2585]

I would act like a badass, misandrist, hyper feminist and the guy will flee 😆😆😆😆😆

Your mother is deranged and you are a grown ass woman. Tell her to shove it, and do as you please. No one tells you who to love!

[madgoat]

In her own way, she's trying to do he best for you and feels its a no brainer.
Can you give him an honest chance?

[Giggletr0n]

No totally not normal, I mean your Mum (assuming this is true) is using you as a go between just so she can get closer to this guy she has a crush on.

My parents would never be able to force me to date anyone. I'd laugh in their face and tell them to fuck off. Disrespect me I disrespect you.

[Pink2000]

I’d give it a shot just to shut them up then make up a reason why it won’t work

[bilco]

don't do it, your mother must have ulterior motives, stay well away, if your not interested find someone else

[Athena374]

They can’t force me to date someone I don’t want to. No one can force anyone to do that.

[name_is_eric]

I'm an adult, so they can't force me to do anything.
But let's say they could, I'd trust my parents' judgement.

[Anonymous]

Well my mom doesn't even think I like guys. So it would be a huge surprise to hear her say anything like that

[SuccessfulHornDog]

Is this a cultural thing? she needs to back off and give you some space

[Danxsarah]

Tell em no and walk away your an adult make ur own choices

[KazFDT]

Are they literally pointing a gun at you and saying date him or die? If not then you aren't being forced and you can do whatever the fuck you want.

[SwagsMcBags]

I stopped reading after the first few sentences. You're an adult. Start acting like one.

[SoulfullWanderer]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure your mom's possessed.

[ChocolateCheesecake]

That's weird that she is in love with him

[LegateLanius]

Laugh at them and not date them

[legalboxers]

its your life. fuck em

[awkwardman]

You need to end it. And if possible move out.

[loveslongnails]

Tell her to date him

[Gottabsavagee]

I’d date who I want

[tlrmrs]

That's fucked up

[FckTheRichAndFamous]

Not normal at all
