There is so much on the internet!

Backstory: I recently started writing a new blog about the horrors of dating after 30, and this was my mother’s response.

Dear Daughter,
I read your dating blog, oh my oh my … but I’ve been thinking J, you’ve got to find a way to access a different crowd, more cerebral, sophisticated men, who will appreciate you! In the way of dating and dieting I send you the attached article about colon cleansing. There is so much on the internet, I’ve been tempted. Love, Mom

Guy With Bentley=Pimp

Backstory: I was going out on a date with a new guy, and I texted my mom to tell her he picked me up in a Bentley.

I hope he isn’t a pimp trying to get you to work for him. Please don’t do it, even though you are poor!

I am not a fluzzy.

Backstory: My mom recently went on a date after a LONG drought.  She is JUST getting into text messaging, but hasn’t quite figured it out.

Me: Yay! Did you like him? Thinking of you while drinking a Corona.
Mom: Yesheisveryhandsome
Me: Awesome. You totally invited him over, didn’t you? :)
Mom: Noiamnotafluzzy
Me: Hahaha! The GOAL is to be a little fluzzy now and then!
Mom: Notitisnotbythewaywhereisthespace
Me: It’s probably the zero key.
Mom: okloveyoubesafe
Me: No we won’t. Going home with rusty and bigdog-not sure where we are. :)
Mom: Callyourdadnodont

Date With a TA

Backstory: the TA in question was my constitutional law TA, whom I asked out on a date once the course was over.

me: im having coffee with my TA today!
mom: yeah baby. who’s your momma? (just kidding) SEND DETAILS
me: of course, i’m going to wear a pushup bra
mom: just make sure you don’t rub up against the constitution…young lady
unless he rubs back
then again probably gay

Be Careful and Don’t Talk

Me: i have a date tonight
Mom: just be careful out there
Me: MOM, he’s fine. I’ve talked to him and he seems really cool. I’ll probably fuck it up anyway
Mom: Oh, don’t say that. Just smile…and don’t talk

Four Generations of Suitors

Backstory: I recently had a break up,and I have had MANY (weird) men take interest in me. This was dear mom’s response.

creepy hat guy may be 50′s!  I think you should get sugar daddies in every age group, starting with 20′s and go up to 50′s. 60 is creepy.  but having 4 generations of suitors may be fun.  Go out 4 nights a week , start the week with the youngest and end the week with the oldest and 3 nights dedicate to you and the cat!

Attack of the Cookie Creep

Also, do you remember my story about O., the cookie guy who blew on my neck at that event a few years ago? (He commented on my ‘thick’ hair, and wondered if my neck was hot…..yuccch) Well, he was there last night, giving me strange looks. I gave him the fish eye. What a creep.

I Ain’t Saying She’s a Golddigger…

I really think you need to meet a guy who earns a lot of money. I’m not trying to be like the mother from Titanic – “What do you want me to SEW for the rest of my life?!”, I just think you’d be happier.

Playing the Dating Game

Backstory: I was getting ready to go on my first date after a rough break up, and was talking to a couple of different guys.

Just wanted to bless your sweet heart……you don’t have to play the game.
BTW, what are you thinking about dating 2 men? Let me know, cause girls used to do it all the time back in my day.
I love you.

Mom: Gross.

Me: At least he voted for Obama.

Mom: He was lying.

She Really Needs A New Blender

If I run off, it will not be with a man I met in a chat room. Do they still have those,,, it will be with an Electrolux salesman that sells state of the art kitchen appliances. Love, Mom

Words Of Romantic Wisdom

All men are shitheads. It’s just the degree of shitheadness that separates one from the other.

Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number

A few years younger-no big deal- you thought he was older when you met him so he must have a little maturity.  If you like him, then go out with him.  Have fun.  You need it.   I love you

Now, back to me,  I am thinking about going out with someone younger-a lot younger-I am not sure of his age.     So, your momma is a dirty old lady

Getting to Know You

Mom: do you know him?

Me: not really

Mom: oh boy

Me: enough for it to not be uncomfortable

Mom: so you dont think he’ll rape you or anything?



Love, Mom
