Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I tried to make my mom feel better about me leaving for camp for 2 weeks by saying I wish she would come too. She took me seriously and called the camp and is now a camp counselor there. The only problem is I lied about going to the camp, and I'm really going to my boyfriend's lake house. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me to go to a car show. I told him to hold on, I had to ask my mom. I quietly asked her to say no for me. She said "Sure!". FML
Today, my boyfriend came over. My mom told him the story about the time she caught me having sex with my ex-boyfriend. My ex is his best friend. FML
Today, I got a phone call from my boyfriend, who screamed at me for being a f-ing liar and never taking time for him. He'd called my work and knew I wasn't there as I said I'd be. He was right - I was lying. I'd been driving for the past 10 hours to his family's beach house to surprise him. FML
Today, I had to lie to my boyfriend about having plans on tonight so he'd think I had a life outside of him. All my "friends" are going to a party. I'm not invited. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that my mom paid him to date me. FML
Today, I came home early, and my boyfriend's car was in my driveway. Inside, he was talking to my parents. He walked right past me and left. My mother then says, "He wanted me to tell you it's over." FML
Today, I let my boyfriend drive my car, knowing that he doesn't have a license. While he was out, he ran a stop sign, collided with another vehicle, and then left the scene of the accident. Then he lied to me about how the accident happened so I "wouldn't be so upset." FML
Today, my boyfriend convinced me to skip school with him. His mom came home early. I had to hide in his closet and wait 6 hours for her to go to her book club meeting. FML
Today, on my way to see my therapist, my father told me to lie to her and tell her that I'm happy so he wouldn't have to drive me there anymore. FML

Are you an adult? Why are you lying to your mom? Yeah it wasn’t cool of her to tell you not to go and then follow you but did you really think she didn’t know the answer to that question before she asked you?

If you're of legal age, living with your parents doesn't mean they get to tell you what to do in your own time. OP's private life is her own business and her mother doesn't get to interfere in that.

You know you should never lie to your mother. Also most parents don’t ask question they don’t already know the answer to. If your boyfriend is old enough to stay in a hotel by himself, assuming your the same age then your old enough to live on your own and not have to worry about your mom saying she doesn’t want you to go to his hotel room. So if your living under your parents roof then you better fallow there rules.

What happens under their roof is 100% their territory. What their adult daughter does in a hotel room with her boyfriend is not.

Of course your car was parked there. The lot for the store next to the hotel was full, so you had to park in the hotel's lot to do your shopping. You're too dumb to be an effective liar.

and if there is no store? what then?

If you're mature enough to spend the night with your boyfriend, you should be mature enough to be honest about it.

Why do you have to lie to your mother? Don’t you know by now your mother will always know everything, she asked you on purpose to catch you lying.

Most moms are usually on point regarding the people their kids date, so unless she's one of those controlling nutjobs, you might want to take her advice to heart.

Stand up to your parents when they invade your private life. Following you around isn't ok. However, that also means being straight on your activities. Lying to avoid "trouble" only invites problems. This all is assuming you're an adult. If you're a minor, your parents do get to tell you where you can't go. But following you around still would be not ok at all.

Regardless of you lying, your mother is a ******* psycho.

Your age makes a huge difference in this. But either way, their house, their rules. Only exception is if you are paying all of your living expenses. When they are still feeding us, letting us leech off of utilities, and housing us for free, they kind of have final say.
