We been texting for 2 months or so. I asked if she wanted to hang out. She said yeah. She later tells me she can't because her mom won't let her because we never met. She said her mom invited e to come to their house and meet them. She is 18 I am 21. I don't know what to think
I know her mom wants to make sure I am not a weirdo or something.
I told her I am open about it but told her we can maybe meet close to her home, to get to know each other first, then maybe I can meet her mom.
I don't know what to think
I mean there our couples our age who are in relationships for a long time and have never met each other's parents.
I don't even know if we are even compatible or not, even if we will be friends. I have taken girls out that I already knew, but since I don't know her in real life and she wants me to meet her mom that is a first.
She also has a dad but I think the mom is the one that wants to meet me first, I don't think the dad will be there through.
I don't find it weird or anything, it's just the first time it has happened to me.
Sounds like they are a close-knit family. The religious part makes sense. Is the woman an only child? Only children can be especially close to their parents (I am one and I am). For her to say she's "not allowed" to hang out with you at 18 seems a little weird to me, but then again if she still lives with her parents, it kind of makes sense.
I wouldn't think much of it until you meet them. And yeah, I would encourage you to go through with it. If you get the mom's approval right away, you're golden Nah really, I never balked from meeting parents because parents always liked me. So I'd go for it if I were you.
As an aside, I personally never had issues with my boyfriends being close to family. My second one was an only child like myself. He was a huge mama's boy, though, and she made practically every decision in his life for him. I really hated that. I'm not saying this girl is going to turn out like that at all. It's just something to keep in mind if it rears its head in the future (assuming there is one).
Why are you texting for 2 months bro? If it takes longer than a week or so to meet in person, move on.
Actually is barely gonna be a month in a couple of days. I asked her three times. She said she wanted to know me more the first too times. I said ok. The third time she said yes but then she said that a couple days later.

No she is actually the oldest of three.
And yeah I know what you mean
I am a pretty likable guy with older woman, I give a nice guy impression.
But this is the first time meeting the girl.
Actually what she exactly said is that I can come over to there house
So maybe they just want to see me for a couple of minutes then maybe we can hang out in her room or the living room while they are in their rooms
Ok so go meet her and her mom. You like her, she obviously likes you. Whats the problem? Shes not asking you to marry her. Maybe shes very family oriented and the relationship with her mother is important to her and wants you to be part of that as her boyfriend.
Go and see her mom. Or not. But if not, leave her be. She is not making an unreasonable request.
