That wouldn’t seem to be a big thing except that he’s not posting stuff enough to dilute any of that so the only activity you see for the last month is tied to me. His sister knew he was dating someone early on but his folks didn’t. We haven’t been dating that long so I was fine with them knowing when he was ready to tell them. I figured they’d find out about me somewhere between the end of June and his family trip in August.
His mother has FB.
During a family lunch earlier this week she opened with “So is there any news you’d like to share?” In case he wasn’t getting the hint his sister said that mom had been snooping around FB. Boy Toy confirmed that he has been dating me for a little over a month. He showed his parents a picture I sent him of me modeling a piece for my upcoming cosplay. I’m not sure they realized their son is dating someone who still plays dress-up.
His mother then asks if I’m coming to the family crab feast in a couple of weeks. I guess I am now. If I have to meet his parents, sister, and some family friends I might as well get delicious regional shellfish out of it.
I’ve only met parents once before so I’m a little nervous. He has three older sisters. He’s the youngest and the only boy. They’ll either hate me because no one is good enough for their son (happened to my mom and grandmother) or happy and relieved he’s finally bringing a girl around. I’m hoping for the latter.
At least I’m not the only one with potential nerves. I’m the only daughter of a single mother. We’re almost but not quite Gilmore Girls close. I’m not close to my extended family. He’s meeting my mom when we go to take my little monsters to the dog park on Saturday. Did I mention he never had pets growing up since his mom is allergic?
We get to take turns watching each other squirm.
