Mom won't let me do anything

[idekw]

So my mom is super awkward.

There's this girl who I've been talking to for a few weeks through text, and we want to meet.

But my mom won't let me go anywhere without telling her who I'm with and she always embarasses me with stuff and tries to give me useless advice, not to mention she doesn't trust me (even though I've never actually done anything).

I really want to do something with this girl, but how do I make it less awkward with my mom?

How do I deal with this?

Why is it that you feel embarrassed telling your mom that you're going out with a girl?
Just be honest with your mom, tell her who you're with and where you're going. If you give her straightforward answers without giving her any reason to think that you're avoiding her questions, she'll likely start trusting you more. Also, the best way to deal with useless advice is to not make a big deal out of it, just grin and bear it. She probably just wants to feel like she's a part of your life.

perfect answer. honesty is always best. first time being attracted to a girl, or boy for that matter, is kind of embarrassing with mom or dad. but we forget they felt the same way at our age.

She wont let you do anything? Or she just wants to know where you are?
The second one, I think most of us are in that situation. But seriously, just tell her you are meeting a friend for ... whatever ... even name the friend. I cant imagine that shed have an issue with it, if you tell her the truth about where you are going.
But with parents, you tell them what they need to know, nothing more....

Thanks for the advice guys.

But the problem is that neither me or the girl can drive yet, and she lives an hour away, so I would need my mom to bring me somewhere and I just feel so awkward because I have really bad anxiety... like REALLY bad

You have no choice but to suck it up, tell her it's a date, or at a minimum a "playdate" just to placate her.


You'd also need to tell the girl what is going on and why things have the story they do.

You're too young to sneak out, and while I've seen it done, it has a bit of risk to it. This is why group dates are much more popular because someone older usually has a car.

Yes, just don´t beat around the bush and tell her.
