So I'm about to leave the house this morning to go watch my 9 year old nephew play footy. I'm in skinny jeans, flat shoes and a white hoodie. I've got makeup on (obviously) but my hair is just up in a messy bun. My darling Mama MEB says "ohhh, you could make a bit more effort when you leave the house love". I tell her where I'm going and she replies with "exactly, there might be some hot single dads there!" **** sake.

As I'm walking up the driveway she calls out "bring me back a son in law!".

Waaahhh :( :(

Oh you have one of those mothers too?
Mine always make suggestions and offers to matchmake with people I don't even know exist. She wonders why I live on the other side of the state now.

My mother thought the foxtel man was cute so she showed him a photo of me and offered my phone number. Arghhhh

Thankfully my folks haven't been giving me too much grief since I have become recently single.
Mum has been dropping little comments....."Oh I hope you meet someone nice" and that sort of stuff but that's about it.

And i've told them that I need some time to myself anyway.
 
My mum's given up hope. I think she either thinks I have a secret boyfriend that I am just not telling her about, or I'm gay. I don't think she really minds either option, other than the fact that her not knowing means there is gossip she is missing out on. ;):D
 
My folks are good. I think they're happy I haven't married any of my exes lol

Ugh. When I told my mum that I broke up with my last boyfriend she started crying. Not out of empathy for me, but because (and I quote) she "see [her] grandchildren slipping away before [her] eyes". I was barely 24.

I'm the shame of my family for not being married with kids yet.

Your mum needs to relax!

Sounds like you need a new family :P
 
I found the best way to stop your parents asking such things is by telling them all the weird and ****ed up stories you can.

Told my mum a story many years ago. It was the last time she ever asked me about the ladies in my life.

It's all good, Mama MEB is glorious. She's just a country mum. She doesn't think it's possible for a woman to be truly happy without a husband and kids. Bless her heart.

My mum used to do the same thing to me Mebby. Almost every conversation I had with her when I was still in a relationship used to centre around kids, and we were going to have them.

I do stuff like that. Told my dad I was pregnant (I wasn't) when he dared comment on my weight. I was 15.

Hahaha I told my dad I was pregnant when I dropped out of uni so he'd be more mad about that than me quitting education. Worked like a charm.
You shady women

That would be a terrible idea in my household. If either of my younger sisters did that, I don't even know what would have happened (apart from my dad turning into the Hulk!).

Quitting Uni >>>>>>> Being pregnant.

That's why I did it. I took him out for lunch and I said, "homer, I have to tell you something. I've been hiding it for about six weeks because I was scared to tell you...I'm pregnant." Papa's face went ghost white and then red and as soon as he opened his mouth I jumped in and said "just kidding! I dropped out of uni!" And he got tears in his eyes and said "oh thank god for that!"

Did not GAF that I stopped studying after that!

Oh right, I misunderstood. I really shouldn't skim read so much :oops:

It's probably a good thing you said that to your Dad and not your Mum :D
