Today, a woman turned up uninvited at my house, ready for our first date. After some embarrassed investigating, it turns out my mother signed me up to Tinder and arranged a date, all without telling me, because she refuses to believe I prefer solitude over dating. FML

Today, I was at dinner with my boyfriend and his family. We were talking about relationships, and I commented on how online dating was the dumbest thing ever. His mom and step-dad went on to tell me how they had met through an online dating service. FML

Today, my girlfriend told me she wanted get to know my mom, so they went off and had a chat. After an hour, I noticed my girlfriend was gone and my mom was waiting for me. Apparently I've been dumped through my mother. FML

Key word, here, perhaps: 'decent'.

Op must be Selena Gomez. Justin Bieber isn't a decent boyfriend. Or girlfriend. Or singer.

I just hate it when people hijack things and make situations awkward.

There's a massively distasteful joke in here somewhere, I just can't seem to hit it.

This all depends on your boyfriend. Perhaps she has mistaken him for one of your teachers or a local drug dealer? Just blow him on her couch with the door unlocked, it seems to be a popular way of introducing boyfriends to parents.

Just blow him on her couch with the door unlocked. Dozens of other posters have found that this method ensures he will meet your parents in a timely manner. She might think he is just someone you know, but this method will clarify things.
