My mom's dating a Frat Boy
 
Im 23 and my mom is 48, and she's dating a guy the same age as me. He's actually 7 months younger than I am but he was in my grade all throughout high school. He is a total frat boy type, who was a prick in high school to me, and lots of others. I don't approve and it makes me uncomfortable to see him all the time saying shit to me about my mom, parrtying, or about how he "loves coming over." I feel like they're flaunting it, and I don't think my mom cares that I don't approve, and I know he doesn't. Does anyone else think this is weird and that I'm right to not approve? Have any similar situations or advice in general? Thanks.

Move out.

Don't really know what this is supposed to mean, but you make it sound like all fraternity men are pricks. Probably not the best thing to do here. Just saying.

Now, the fact that you even typed all of this makes me think that you already know it's ok for you to not approve.

This is a weird situation all around. It's bad enough that it's someone your age... but someone your age who you know, and who treated you poorly in high school (and continues to do so). Have you had a serious conversation with your mom about it? Because if you just roll your eyes and complain about this behind their backs, it's not going to get you anywhere, and they'll probably stay together, pushing you farther away, as you continue to do the same to them.

If you talk to your mom, and she seems to not care about what your feelings are about this (which would be sad, but could happen), and it's really bothering you, then I agree... move out.

Your mom rocks.

I'm sorry she has such a bigoted cheese dick for a son. If she was dating a black person or an Asian, I shudder to think what the title of this thread would be.

You took the words right out of my mouth. At least someone in the family is cool.

RU OX Alum 12-02-2008 02:02 PM

sorry that your mom's a slut

i hope telling the internet made you feel better though

KSUViolet06 12-02-2008 02:17 PM

She's most likely going to do what she wants. If you don't like it, move out.

VAgirl18 12-02-2008 03:32 PM

Okay, Nick Hogan.

I'm not a "bigoted" person 33girl. I'd actually say I'm more tolerant that both my mom and her frat boy bf. I'm gay, and thats why he was always a dick to me in high school and still is. I don't approve of her behavior, or why she's dating a guy i wen to school with. Please don't judge me, or better yet, don't accuse me of being something I'm not.

Senusret I 12-02-2008 09:32 PM

You can disapprove of anyone your mother dates. I, for one, hate my stepfather's guts and want to fight him.

That said... if you live there, either move out or suck it up. Not much else can be done, champ.

Then quit using terms like "frat boy" as pejoratives - especially when you haven't even clarified that the guy was actually IN a fraternity. Labeling an entire group of people with a stereotype is bigotry, no 2 ways about it. Nothing you have said makes you seem the least bit "tolerant."

Your mom is an adult. She's attracted to who she's attracted to. Deal with it.

I think you should pitch it as a reality show to Bravo.

Sounds like someone has a bit of a oedipus complex.

I think he said he's a fella who likes the fellas. So maybe he's more like Bill in "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure" with his feeling towards Missy, I mean mom (but about Dave, I mean Dad).

The thread name sounds like an MTV show to me.

I was already thinking this before I clicked on the thread. "True Life - My Mom's Dating A Frat Boy". Too funny.

I was thinking, "True Life: My Mom's a Cougar." Comic hijinx ensue!

Langox510x 12-05-2008 03:12 PM

Yeah, I had a summer fling with a mom one time. She was 38 and her son was 18.

Phase
 
It's probably just a midlife crisis phase (no offense). Most established older women typically won't put up with a younger guy's crap for long term. Younger guys sometimes get off on being with older women. That is a phase within itself for some younger guys.

Let's think about it logically. A guy in his early 20s will eventually grow up. He's probably going to want to have his own family someday. It won't make sense to stay with the older woman. The older woman is probably done having children and will be retiring way before the guy in his 20s.

Also, not all fraternity guys are bad.

Cheers,

Psst. Some people - male AND female - don't ever want to have children at all so your line of reasoning is pointless.

sorry - My point is that most of the time when you have an age gap like that it won't last. Exceptions to that are typically where the man is older and the woman is younger. Fact of the matter is that girls mature much quicker than guys.

He did hedge with "probably" and you kind-of/sort-of agree with "some" and . . .

I mean, it doesn't matter - mom's getting laid, that's what this is. Would you rather deal with a dude nailing your mom, or your mom being an unsexed annoying nag? Hell, wait until 30sec after he leaves and start hitting her up for money or whatever.

This is an opportunity, guy - you're way too caught up on the "boo hoo he calls me f-g" thing. Guess what? Lots of pieces of shit are going to call you names. Who are you going to cry to? Your mom. Do you want her to be clear-headed, or thinking about the lawn crew running train in the shed out back?

EDIT: I mean, also, it doesn't matter because this is a recurring troll. But that's not funny, is it?

My guess is that the fling is over by now.
