The man I'm currently involved with and I were taking a casual drive yesterday evening. We were still very near my place when his Mom called him and asked if he was in the area, if he could drive her somewhere. I was fine with this, but I was expecting for him to just drop me off at home so he could attend to his business. He wanted me to meet her. I automatically got uncomfortable and requested that he just drop me off, that we could meet up again when he was finished if he wanted. He was very let down that I wasn't willing to meet her.
I was not dressed in a manner to make a first impression. I also didn't think that was the ideal scenario to meet his Mother. I told him this.
We are also, and most importantly, not in a relationship. It's heading towards that, but I'm not all about meeting his family because I feel that is something you do once you've been together officially for at least a few months. I didn't say this, because the situation was light and cheery and I didn't want to be all serious and negative.
I could tell it really bothered him, because he joked about it later on in the evening once we met up again.
He's been wanting me to meet his family for quite some time now. I think he needs to cool it a little.
