Is it strange that my boyfriend wished me a happy mothers day but we don't have kids?

We've been together for a year. We are not married nor trying for kids.

It's not necessarily strange that your boyfriend wished you a happy Mother's Day, as some people may view the holiday as a way to celebrate all women in their lives who have nurtured and cared for them. However, it's important to communicate with your boyfriend about how you feel about the situation.

If you feel uncomfortable with the Mother's Day message, you can let your boyfriend know how you feel and why. For example, you can say something like, "I appreciate the sentiment, but I don't feel like I'm a mother yet and it makes me feel a little uncomfortable to be celebrated as one. Can we find another way to celebrate our relationship without referencing Mother's Day?"

Ultimately, it's important to communicate openly and honestly with your partner about your feelings and to work together to find a way to celebrate your relationship in a way that feels comfortable and meaningful for both of you.

Not trying to be weird or anything but maybe he wants you to be his “mommy” or something like that.

Not really. He could be joking around.
