A Guy Brought His Mom To Their First Date, So She Left
Have you ever seen TLC’s I Love a Mama’s Boy? If you have and you’re up to date on the latest season, you watched Matt’s mom, Kelly, crash a date of his, and that’s kind of her thing.
Perhaps you thought that doesn’t happen in real life – a guy’s mom coming along on a first date, but you would be wrong.
Last week, this 23-year-old girl went on a first date with a 25-year-old guy named Jake, whom she met on a dating app.
They spoke for a couple of weeks before deciding to meet up. Jake came across as hilarious and nice. He also was super attractive in his photos.
He even proved to have excellent taste in music, and he recalled that she mentioned her love of Italian dishes, so she appreciated those things.
Jake was the one who planned out their first date, and he invited her to this cool restaurant in Dallas.
“I show up, and everything’s fine at first. He’s already there, we hug, and he even complimented my outfit,” she explained.
“But, like, five minutes after I sit down, this older woman walks in. Jake stands up, waves her over, and says, “This is my mom!” I thought I misheard him for a second.”
Jake’s mom walked over, said hello, and then actually sat down at their table with them, acting like it was no big deal.
She figured this was Jake testing her, and she giggled anxiously while telling Jake she didn’t know he was inviting someone else along on their date.
Jake responded that his mom wanted to meet her and that it was somehow completely fine for her to be there with them.
“But it was a big deal because she didn’t just stop by to say hi—she ordered wine and stayed,” she added.
“The whole time, she’s asking me these personal questions about my job, my family, even if I want kids someday. It was like an interview, not a date. Jake barely said anything. He just smiled and kept nodding like this was all normal.”
She lasted 20 minutes, and then she came up with a way to get out of there. She told Jake and his mom she wasn’t feeling so well and had to go home.
Later on, she sent Jake a text stating she didn’t think they were a good match, but she wished him all the best in his love life.
However, she’s feeling guilty, even though her roommate believes she did the right thing because bringing your mom on a first date is so bizarre.
“But my coworker said it was rude to just leave and that maybe his mom was just super close to him or nervous for him or whatever,” she continued.
Do you think it was wrong of her to walk out on the date with Jake since he brought his mom along? What would you do if someone showed up to a first date with you and their mom tagged along?
