you make me completely miserable.....
ever since i talked to my mom about a guy i'm interested in things have been different (to me they seemed a little strained). my mom and i have always had a great relationship more friends than mother and daughter. i share nearly everything with her so this was no different. i thought she would be happy for me and of course she says that she is but it doesn't sound like she really means it. i don't know if i'm imagining it or what but it seems to me her "i don't know how i feel" is just a way for her to not hurt me with her opinion. its her tone of voice that makes me question whether she really "doesn't know" how she feels or like i said if she is just using it as an excuse not to say anything. TONIGHT when she called me back and mentioned this guy she casually mentioned "i don't know how your father will take it so i wouldn't say anything until you know you guys are serious" and tacked on to the end was "i just want you to be happy but you need to focus on school". she never said that with tripp she never said that when i was hanging out with richie. so why say it now?

fuck em cory. Okay i don't mean like ACTUALLY because family tensions are never fun. However the reality is, that it shouldn't keep you from pursuing something you want. Because your parents will love you unconditionally (particularly your mom in this case) and while we all have friends and family who may not always make decisions we agree with, we continue to love them. So while your mom may not know how she feels at first, the idea will eventually settle in. I mean, imagine it from the other point of view; what if his mom wasn't happy with the idea of you? What would you tell him? This has happened to me, and guess what, she realized i wasn't such a bad person after all...
The point is your family will always love you. And while there might appear to be some sort of "lapse" it's not that they've temporarily stopped loving you, they're just thinking about the situation you've put them/yourself in. You shouldn't let it stop you from pursuing a good thing.
Besides, times are changing. They have a black president, too =)
