Yo, buckle up, fam! We’re diving into a wild dating tale that’ll have you rolling on the floor! Picture this: our gal finally gets ready for a first date, all dolled up and feeling fly, when BOOM! The dude texts her and asks if his mom can tag along. Like, what is this, a family reunion? 😂 So, she rolls with it, because why not? Spoiler alert: the date takes a turn when the guy asks her what she thought of his mom instead of, ya know, asking if she wants to see him again! Talk about pressure! I mean, who knew dating had a 'meet the parents' level right outta the gate? Grab your snacks and tune in for some laughs as we unpack this crazy date disaster! 🍿✨
Takeaways:
So, imagine showing up for a date, and then boom! Mom’s crashing the party!
This poor lady thought she was getting a romantic dinner, not a family reunion!
When your date asks how you feel about their mom, it’s like a test you didn’t study for!
Dating tip: If your first date includes the fam, you might need to run!
Ever felt like dating is just a long job interview? Welcome to the club!
Next time you get a date invite, check if the whole family is included!
Transcripts
Speaker A:
Good morning.
Speaker A:
It's Haystack, and I've stumbled across a crazy date story.
Speaker A:
I thought I had some crazy first dates, but this poor lady.
Speaker A:
So she's been talking to this guy for about a month or so.
Speaker A:
You know, they've been texting, building chemistry, probably overanalyzing emojis like we all do.
Speaker A:
And she finally goes on this date.
Speaker A:
She's dressed up, she's pulling into the restaurant, she's feeling good.
Speaker A:
Ding.
Speaker A:
Text message.
Speaker A:
And he says, hey, quick question.
Speaker A:
Is it cool if my mom joins us?
Speaker A:
She's in town.
Speaker A:
What?
Speaker A:
First of all, she's in town.
Speaker A:
What is she, a touring comedian?
Speaker A:
You catch her this weekend at the Grove.
Speaker A:
Like, and, and so anyway, this.
Speaker A:
This poor lady tells him, yeah, which tells me that she's polite and that dating has gone so badly, she's like, eh, what else can go wrong?
Speaker A:
So anyway, she goes in and somehow apparently this dinner goes pretty well, which seems crazy to me.
Speaker A:
Can you imagine showing up to a first date and they just spring on you at the last moment?
Speaker A:
Third person, and it's his mom.
Speaker A:
And you know she's going to ask mom questions.
Speaker A:
So what do you do for a living?
Speaker A:
Do you want any children?
Speaker A:
Do you have children?
Speaker A:
Do you want more children?
Speaker A:
Can you fix him?
Speaker A:
The guy is sitting there like he.
Speaker A:
He brought a reference check to dinner.
Speaker A:
He's not even dating.
Speaker A:
He's outsourcing dating at this point.
Speaker A:
And where it goes off the rails even further is at the end of the night.
Speaker A:
So this guy walks this poor lady to her car.
Speaker A:
This is the moment, right?
Speaker A:
This is when you say, oh, I had a great time.
Speaker A:
I'd like to see you again.
Speaker A:
The guy looks her dead in the eye and goes, so, what did you think of my mom?
Speaker A:
Excuse me, sir.
Speaker A:
I thought I was supposed to be on a date with you.
Speaker A:
Why does it feel like I just completed the final round of a job interview?
Speaker A:
She's polite.
Speaker A:
She says, oh, she was nice.
Speaker A:
And he says, good, because I can't date anyone who doesn't like her.
Speaker A:
Oh, okay.
Speaker A:
So.
Speaker A:
So they're not dating.
Speaker A:
This is America's next top daughter in law.
Speaker A:
Can you imagine that pressure?
Speaker A:
You're not worried about chemistry.
Speaker A:
You're not.
Speaker A:
You're.
Speaker A:
You're thinking, oh, did I laugh at mom's stories?
Speaker A:
Did I?
Speaker A:
Should I have given her more compliments on her cardigan?
Speaker A:
And you know, mom is judging her.
Speaker A:
Moms don't just sit in.
Speaker A:
She came with a scorecard.
Speaker A:
Eye contact, good manners, acceptable.
Speaker A:
She tolerates my son.
Speaker A:
That's.
Speaker A:
That's concerning, but we'll monitor the situation.
Speaker A:
So what is next is what I want to know.
Speaker A:
They get ready for the next date.
Speaker A:
Hey, do you mind if dad joins?
Speaker A:
Also, my aunt is on zoom.
Speaker A:
Look, I get it.
Speaker A:
Wanting your partner to like your family is normal.
Speaker A:
But that's a later problem, not a first date problem.
Speaker A:
That's a we've been dating six months, let's see if you can survive Thanksgiving problem.
Speaker A:
You don't open with that.
Speaker A:
You don't start with, hey, meet my mom on the first date.
Speaker A:
That's like starting a video game on the final boss.
