[bonjour tristesse.]

I know a lot of people that tells their moms all about their love life. Whether it's a cute guy she has in Bio class, her long time crush, crush for the principal (lol, I've had this case before) or actual boyfriend, they dish it out to their mom.

How many of you here actually tells their mom about their love life though?

My mom .. sheesh, she'd strangle me if I told her that I have a boyfriend .. *sigh* She's such a typical asian parent, lol. But either way even if she didn't care I wouldn't tell her .. It's too awkward for me.

[dorkafied!]

I tell my mom about the cute guy i used to see
in the hallways that i had a small crush on him.
Yesterday i told my mom about the cute guy i
see everyday at bio. My mom just smiles at me
asking me how cute he is, she doesnt let me have
a boyfriend though.

Besides the fact that they are cute, i tell them about
the cute guys so my parents wont suspect me of
having a boyfriend :X

[emceej]

i wish i could tell my mom. but she'd kill me D;

though, if i find a celebrity hot/cute then yes, i do tell her.
but real life guys that i find attractive, i don't.

[witchery]

LOL not at all...I know a lot of people who tell their mothers everything that happens in their love life and they form a really close bond over that. I actually really envy that.

Because of the language barrier it's too hard to explain anything at all. Stuff to do with emotions, and relationships use more complex English and she won't be able to understand, nor will I be able to explain myself in Chinese.

So yeah she knows very little about my love life because I can't communicate it to her, like a lot of things. She just forms assumptions in her head (like if I go out and stay out late she thinks I'm with a new boyfriend or something) and I just correct them, with brief, simple responses.

[ladolcevita.]

No. It's weird and she teases me. She treats me like a little girl and goes "Aww" and it's annoying.
My mom knows about my sister's crush and she always teases her and sometimes bring him up
whenever they're arguing even though it's irrelevant to the topic. I don't want to be like that so I don't
tell her anything.

[missimperfection]

i tried, but she just blew it off as a joke T.T

[joogrlpekaun]

Nah, she still doesn't even know that I dated a couple of guys five to six years ago. It's not that she would have been mad or anything--actually, she'd probably jump for joy if I told her I was seeing someone right now and ask me a million questions--but I just never felt like telling her and she never even noticed at the time. Back then we didn't have as great of a relationship and I was pretty private in general even with most of my friends and my parents (I didn't tell anyone when I liked a guy), and at this point I don't really see any reason to tell her when it's not like they were long-term or serious relationships, anyway, not to mention she'd probably just feel hurt that I never said anything before.

I'd probably tell her if I started going out with someone now, but only if she asked, so she'd probably only find out well after it started, and I doubt I'd tell her a whole lot of details. It's probably typical for parents to not know a ton of details about their kids' relationships in college and beyond, anyway.

[infinite*]

No. She'd probably kill me.
I tease her sometimes though, I show him a picture of a guy and say 'isn't he cute?' and she glares at me.

I tell my dad instead. Not in detail.
I tell him and he just says a few words and that's it.

[MNLV27]

I tell my mom the basic stuff, never really detailed stuff. She knows I have a boyfriend, she's met him. I tell her stories of what happened between us, just like fun stupid stuff we talk about once in a while. I've even told her about some problems we were having. On the other hand, my boyfriend is soooo open with both his parents. They basically know a lot about him and my relationship.

[xradiostatic]

sometimes i talk to her about someone i like. i don't do it much though - sometimes it gets awkward haha. i don't really go into detail - just something simple. most of the time she can tell when i like someone though because they tend to come up in conversation a lot. why must i be so obvious....

anyway, i'm pretty close to my mom and i talk to her about love/relationships in general. just not much about me and my crushes (never had a boyfriend, so yeah. that aspect isn't applicable to me).

[jodycolour]

Heck no I don't. Imagine what she'll do to me! D:
It's scary... okay, I haven't tried, so I don't know how she will react.
I'm pretty sure she'll be like, "WHAT?!?!?"

[AS1AND0LL]

I don't tell my mom but she eventually finds out if she constantly sees me hanging out with the same guy over and over. She would nag about one of my current guy friend (we use to have a thing for each other), saying things like, "Oh why were you so mean to him.. why does he not come over anymore" -____- like jeeze, it's how I flirted with him lol but she does not get my concept of flirting since I like the "play hard to get, hitting" thing but yeah she just finds out about my "love life" on her own and we'll sometimes talk about it then she goes into talks about marriages -___- which is a way different story.

[lee-chan]

well when i was in highschool she kinda figured it out since she picked me up in school and noticed the boy i had a crush on. i remember her saying, 'hey its the boy you like! he's looking here' It was funny and embarrassing. Before I entered my first relationship, I told her about it since I disliked hiding things like that you know if you have a bf and stuff. She gave me advice but was all right with it. I don' tell her everything just minor stuff.

[soma]

Haha, I don't tell my mom much. Occasionally when she asks if there's any guy out there that I like, etc etc.
But I just tell her about some cute guys I see but that's it.
And if I had a boyfriend I wouldn't be able to tell her because she'd go apesh!t on me.

[blackjackVip]

no.
even with my dad.
i feel weird and kinda awkward....they'll be shock even if i ONLY like someone...what more if i have a boyfriend...
*sigh*
when i get a boyfriend in the future, i'll probably tell them when i'm already around 20+ but for now, i keep my lovelife a secret...teehee

[Gunfire]

I pretty much don't tell my mom anything...unless it's medical/health related. I mean, I know she's there to listen and understand but I haven't encounter anything problematic when it comes to love and relationships yet. I've never had a boyfriend either, and never in my life will I tell her who my crushes are. But nonetheless, I love her. Haha. One day I'll talk to her about this stuff though.

[adaytodiefor]

Haha I do... sometimes just out of random.
My mom tells me that when she was my age even she never told her mom (my grandma) about her relationships.
My dad even agrees.

[Capriccio]

Um..that's one of the last thing I would want my mom to know about..eheh.
I mean she teases me enough by saying stuff like: "Oooh~you have a bf right!?"
"Your buying that to show off to your bf??"
Oh geez...I can't imagine what it would be like if I ever tell her I have a bf o_o;

[tranniee_x]

lately I've been trying to do the 'communication' thing with my mom ;D
I tell her everything. No secrets, no lies. So when I told her about this guy I like, she was okay with it. That's good, right? (:

[kishycathiee]

omg no.... that would just be the most awkwardest thing ever

plus i don't even have a love life hahaha
