Really awkward moment for me a couple of days ago. I was going in CVS when I saw one of my moms friends in the parking lot and ended up walking in with her and talking. She needed to get some prescriptions filled for her husband so I walked with her to the pharmacy. So when we get there the pharmacist turns out to be a beautiful young green eyed Puerto Rican and I am like

. Now comes the awkward part which is my moms friend has been trying for the last 10+ years to hook me up with her daughter and her daughter has had a huge crush on me for as long as I can remember. So here I am looking at this beautiful woman who is staring at me while she talks to my moms friend and I can feel my moms friend looking at me like

So as she's filling the prescription we start talking and she's laughing at my corny jokes and basically taking her sweet time. My moms friend isn't saying a word and she's usually very talkative so I know she was getting pissed so I dialed it back. In the end I didnt get her number and she had a confused look on her face as we were leaving. But I'll go back there by myself and grab some gum or something and see if she's there so.
Normally I wouldn't care but this is a woman who has looked out for me in the past and she's actually a good friend of the family in general. So out of respect I didn't want to get this woman's number in front of her after telling her I'm not looking for a GF while she offers up her daughter to me. The funny part is her daughter is actually cute but I don't want to get with her and I've told her mom that before and she insists we will get married.
Her mom is very overbearing and it would be a weird situation if things don't work out between her daughter and I. I imagine my mom and her mom wouldnt be friends anymore and they've known each other longer than either of us has been alive.
Dude, look, your mother's friend doesn't own you and you don't owe her or her a daughter a damn thing. You're a grown ass man and it's up to YOU who you choose to date, simple as that. You don't need to explain yourself to anybody.
I can relate to your story, because I mentioned recently this hoe ass cousin I had an altercation with back in the summer. Her mother (my aunt by marriage) has an extremely overbearing personality to the point where you feel stifled at times. Last year, she was always saying it would be so good if me and my cousin's best friend can hook up, with no thought or consideration whatsoever for the fact that I was still grieving over the breakdown of marriage. She was saying how all this chick wants is a good man and blah blah blah (like I'm supposed to just get with a chick based on that as if that's my concern or business

) and she thinks we would suit each other. I was offended by this, because at no time were MY feelings ever considered, it's all based on getting with that broad just to make her feel better. I would have never hooked up with that chick anyway because 1)we're on two different paths spiritually, so no point in even going there, and 2)she and my cousin and the rest of that side of the family are
very tight. My skeezoid cousin is similar to her mother and very difficult to get along with at times. Even before the incident, there was no way I was going to put myself in a position where those people are gonna be in my face all the time, cos we'd never have any privacy and if we ever broke up, the shyt would never go in my favour cos they would all turn against me no matter who was at fault. Anyway, after the incident, I don't fukk with those people anymore. But imagine if I did get with her before all that?
The point is, you're not obligated to date a chick you're not interested in just because her parents want to play the role of cupid. Personally, I would have bagged that PR chick with no fukks given. If the chick's mother don't like it, too fukking bad. Just because she may have looked out for you in the past doesn't mean you have to succumb to her wishes, so don't pass up on opportunities just to mqake another person feel better. Guaranteed, they ain't doing that shyt for you. I may sound harsh here, but I'm sick and tired of people who think they have a right to dictate and coerce others into doing shyt. You ain't no Indian chick on some arranged marriage bullshyt. We live in the west and have a choice. I'm sure there's at least 100 other dudes willing to date this broad. The mother needs to back off and mind her business. I mean, the mere fact that she's been trying to hook y'all up for 10+ years....I don't know man, but.....anyway you know them better than I do.......
