... And it ain't good.
From all the Boyfriend's tales' she sounds like a battleaxe. So much so, that I can't help but picture her as matriarchal Mafia Ma kinda thing.
Generally, they're a rough lot... And I'm proud of Daniel for turning out as he has.
Trouble is, of our 8-month relationship, 3 months were spent sneaking around in secrecy as she'd forbidden him to see me. In short, she's apparantly not so hot on his sexuality yet, and having a boyfriend three years older than him didn't go down too well either when he broke that news. Why he told her I still don't know.
So, Daniel in his youthful earnest has been pushing her to let me go to his house, which I've only ever been allowed to drive past, and I'm shitting a brick.
There's such an air of... I dunno... Mystery? And taboo... around being at his house, and I'm terrified of meeting his family. By refusing to meet me, and the ill-advised things Daniel has said to her about me, she seems to already HAVE an opinion and image of me, and she doesn't sound the type willing to change it.
In my thoughts, I never EVER get on with her... I just find myself being cornered in a kitchen with her bearing down on me snarling :"I swear, if you hurt my son..." and tirades which mention "heavies" and "Black & Deckers" and then me leaving in tears!
So can you help? How many of you have been through this? And how did it go?
And a word of warning - I'm a wreck over this, as it means a lot to Daniel - so GOOD STORIES ONLY PLEASE!!! Lol.
:biggrin:
