Is It Normal For My Mum To Be Concerned?

[abbeylee90]

I just told my mum I got a lift with that mam from dogs home to get my covid jab she said be careful with that man he might think you like him one I was on about from dogs home. He took me for dinner afterwards.

Just say thanks for the offer, but I've going something to do before I go home, so don't want to make you late/hold you back.

I'd also mention it to somebody in charge at the dog walking place, and ask them to play along with your reason so that way he won't catch you out.

[cashier]

He is trying to be your boyfriend, he has obviouly realised you are desperate and thinks it will be him.

[Floko]

Abbey, you have been given sensible and necessary advice tonight. Yet you are still trying to make excuses ....If there were not a swear filter on here, I would have a name for this man

[abbeylee90]

I just say no I'm going out with someone else if I got funny he might twist *** about me down there

[abbeylee90]

Most of them slag him off for different reason so I doubt it

[scorpiojo]

You've had months to say no to him, Abbey. 

[Floko]

"going out with someone else" ???? 

You are definitely giving him the impression he is your present crush until you find a young man. Get a grip!

Abbey  LISTEN to our advice properly.  I know you have understood that we feel you should not go out with him (or his friends)at all, now that we have more information.

Steer very, very clear because he obviously has got the wrong ideas.

This obsession with finding a boyfriend - that will put men off  for a start.  Concentrate on managing a sensible  job which will provide a living wage. Please.

[abbeylee90]

I'm not just looking for any man he gotta be right one as I could waist time going for just anyone so it end now. 

What do I say if he says why don't I come out anymore?

[Floko]

I am now signing off ; Abbey read through all the advice and take action.

[elliemay1]

Just say that you don't want to, you don't have to give a reason

[Floko]

Tell him he is spending too much time with you and asking you out

[abbeylee90]

Thanks I will do that and not message him.

[jourdain2]

Just say you have other things to do.  At the moment you can say that your Mum needs helps.  In the end, just say that you don't want to go out with him.

[abbeylee90]

Will say need to go straight home.

[abbeylee90]

People are slagging him off now as he is refusing to wear a hi vi's for the dogs home when walking 

[jourdain2]

Good, you are seeing what others see.

[abbeylee90]

Thanks we will see as he wear a yellow coat now same as hi vi's which he won't want to in summer so if he still refuses be banned from dog walking 

[scorpiojo]

But Abbey, you've had months to say no to him, yet, you've still accepted his invitations. And the watch. 

[scorpiojo]

..and do your parents know about previous lifts, going out to dinner, the watch, the offer of the zoo/concert/evening (s) out?
