Mamacita, I see adult co-dependent dysfunction is not limited to the mother-son relationship! Thanks for stopping by and sharing your story. Your boyfriend's former date probably went to church every day to pray for the end of time. By the way, thanks for sharing your wonderfully weird dating mail!

OK: here’s a story. A few years ago, my current boyfriend was set up by his boss. Turns out she was still living with Dad (35) and went to Mass every morning. She cooked for Dad and fed him (in his Barcalounger no doubt) and they went on vacation together once a year. Ah, that would have been heaven for him, right? Dad and he in their Baraloungers, watching the game, dropping her off at church each a.m…vacationing with Dad…We still joke about it.

Believe me, Kathie. I have gotten a lot of good material out of dating. but I’m not sure I’d have survived past the first breakfast with mom. His mom.

I’m back and thinking you should date that guy and then blog about it…it could be your next book. The anatomy of a very bad date…and then another and another….

Hey Susan, this is hilarious–a great view into a world I’m not currently in. First of all, speed dating for 20 somethings is akin to the simple act of breathing. They walk out hte door and have three dates by the time they reach work. Second, that guy living with his mother–that’s hilarious. HILARIOUS. I kind of wish you dated him just to report on his life and the real comings and goings. I mean, can you imagine? Thanks for sharing this part of your life…we’re laughing with you, I swear.
