Would it be weird to have my mom turn in my application?

Who's at fault? Me or my mom?

  • Okay, so after school, me, my twin sister, and my mom were driving to Jack in the Box to get something to eat. I was on Facebook on my phone, and I randomly announced that my guy friend is at Panera. My mom and his mom are friends, so my mom knows him. Anyway, my mom was like, "Go up to him tomorrow and ask him if Panera is good! Maybe we can go tomorrow!" I don't even know him that well, so it would be super weird if I did that. My sister chimed in and told my mom that it would be a little stalkerish if I were to do that, and I agreed with her, coz once again, I barely know him. I mean, who just randomly goes up to someone and says, "I saw on Facebook that you were at Panera yesterday. Was it good?" How stalkerish is that? Am I right? Well, my mom disagreed. She thought it would be perfectly normal if I did that. My mom and sister were bickering back and forth about it, and I got involved and started yelling at my mom about it, coz she just doesn't get my generation. Things today aren't like it was 50 years ago, you know? So my mom made a U-turn, and she said that we were going home because she was sick of me and my sister's attitudes. SO. STUPID. I can't believe she got so pissed off at me and my sister because of our opinions! Now I'm STARVING. There's legit NOTHING to eat in my fridge. Just chicken nuggets, which I'm sick of. I know this sounds childish. But I'm really pissed off. I'm so freaking hungry. It's just so annoying how my mom would be pissed off at something so little. Yeah, I shouldn't've yelled at her, but she was pissing me off by getting angry about OPINIONS! So who should be blamed the most? My mom who gets pissed off all the time? Or me and my growling stomach?

  • Answer:

    you could always eat the chicken mcnuggets again and next time dont talk so much

Honestly? I'd say both, because you could have just commented his status on facebook "ohh is it any good, my mom was wondering?" because obviously she knows him. Your mom reacted quite unfair and OTT too, though.

Your mom,...that would be very stalkerish..

I don't see why there would be anything wrong with asking him. People put things on Facebook to have people take note of it, and asking about a restaurant is not what I would consider being a stalker. I think your mom may have over-reacted, but she is your mother after all.

Moms never understand I totally relate. My mom got angry once because i said oh this game is totally stupid. And she said you shouldnt talk like that and grounded me & told my dad who made the thing even bigger. Ugh

Wow, what three women in a closed car can get into! Read back your question, and take something from it: When you argue with your mother over stupid little things, you end up upset and hungry. Really, is it worth all the hassle? You could have just stopped arguing, and then not done it. If she asked (I doubt she'd remember), just tell her you forgot. Honestly, all this energy expended over such a silly thing! Maybe your mother felt cut-off by you because she was trying to be included and you blew her off. She may be lame, but she's your mom, and she deserves better than constant arguments over stupid stuff. Next time, hold your tongue. It will help your relationship, and you'll get fed.

Neither of you! It would be a little stalkerish to ask him in person if Panera was good. Since he posted it on Facebook, it would have probably been okay to comment on his FB post. BUT, you were out of line to argue and yell at your mom. It sounds like the real issue (and the reason she didn't get you food) was that you were being disrespectful, not so much that she disagreed with you.

Your mom shouldn't be upset about your opinion. That sucks that your mom was so upset you didn't go eat. :( Maybe she's trying to set you up with this kid? Anyhow I agree it's super stalkerish to just go up to him & ask him how was it. But if you FB him that question, it's diff. That's just you browsing FB & asking a random question to his post. TOTALLY different. :)
