Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up to an email confirming my membership to a dating site. Turns out my mother is as annoyed by my loveless life as I am. FML
Today, I signed up for a dating site and used a photo of my mother and me at a wedding. Everyone stops responding when they find out they're talking to me and not her. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me that my mom paid him to date me. FML
Today, I overheard my mother Skyping with her new "boyfriend" about the $1,000 she just sent him. She barely knew what internet dating was three weeks ago. FML
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 mom called me and asked me to fix her computer, three days after saying she never wanted to see me again for dating a boy. I got lectured to on how I'm ruining my life the whole time. FML
Today, I found out my mom pretended to be me and had AIM conversations with my boyfriend. FML
Today, I asked my mom about signing up for an online dating site. She took one look at me and said, "Why get rejected online when you can just go outside for the same?" 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.

I think you missed her point! It's called reading between the lines. Good luck.

I feel as though she is "hinting" something to you... Mother knows best ;)

Mother always has an opinion but it's not always the best

I agree! was merely stating it as a joke because we all know that's not true haha! Also, that is why I put the "winky" face!

Wait a second, prescription isn't the word I'm looking for here. *subscription

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.

Sorry for the repost, the other didn't show up to me.

Maybe she's seen something when you weren't with him to make her think he's horrid.

Take the hint! She hates your boyfriend. The end.

Just because she's seen you with him it doesn't mean she's gotten to know him yet... Bring him by more often
