I remember, Anne Boelyn had the same problem…
Hey, anytime!

Hehe let me share a similar story.
In college I was working in foodservice (I may have told this before but I can’t remember) and the lady I worked with kept talking about this girl and the ‘special sort of sweetness’ that she had.
For the longest time I thought she was trying to set me up with her daughter.
Then I found out that she has a SON! And he works there!
And he was hitting on my GF! (Well she wasn’t my GF when he hit on her).
It took 2 years to figure out that she was talking about my (she’s now my ex) GF!
It makes my head hurt to think about it now.
And angry very very angry (relationship ended badly)
I’m sorry CRorex, but could you diagram that for us? Your co-worker’s son was your co-worker and he was hitting on your GF, but she wasn’t your GF, and your co-worker was talking about your GF but you thought it was her daughter but it wasn’t but she wasn’t your GF yet or she used to be but wasn’t then or FUCK it’s so confusing please please straighten it out or I won’t be able to sleep
What Manduck said:
Yeah, I’ll second that: “what Manduck said”
Well, if he calls I think you should go out with him. I’m dying to hear what happens. You can’t, after bringing the subject up, just leave us hanging.
CRorex, maybe you should use names, even if you have to make them up.
Well, this could be good.
Do you, by any chance, come to work in almost-sheer pyjama bottoms?
My dear departed Mother did this to me at least twice that I know of and probably a jillion that I never heard about. The two girls that expressed an interest in meeting me turned out to be nice, attractive, interesting people. Even though nothing romantic transpired, I gained two friends I might not have otherwise had. YMMV.
I would take it as a compliment that she thinks you are worthy of her son.
Oh, don’t you worry - I’ll be sure and share, if I do hear from him (whoever he is - I don’t actually know his NAME). I think if he does call, I’ll meet him, just out of pity because he has such a scary mother (she’s never met me, and her main logic for setting me up with her son is that I have “a nice voice”). I’ll just try and make sure she doesn’t become an in-law. My sibs have crazy Ms-I-L, but I think this one would take the cake.
CRorex: I can’t for the life of me figure out the tangled threads of your story, but it sounds unpleasant, so pls accept my sympathy.

No shit. Because nobody else in Eastern Massachusetts works in freaking Boston. Wacko.
