My friend A is seeing a guy who asked her if she was ready to meet his family. She said no. She has met his parents once casually already. I am assuming he meant the rest of the family.
She texted me today and said he just sent her a text that said, "My mom and grandma are coming into town sometime before the end of March. Unless you affirmatively want to meet them, I'll schedule it for a weekend we won't get together."
She was concerned that he is pushing since she already said she was not ready to meet his family. I'm not sure if he is pushing or hopeful and was just trying to make best use of his time. Thoughts C-D?
Honestly, it sounds more hopeful--his mom and grandma are visiting, and he wants to know if she would like to meet them. If they're not in town that often, he's trying to kill two birds with one stone, and he's giving her the option to say no.
Sounds like he's just telling her that he is going to be with them that weekend and if she's not interested in joining them, that's the reason he won't be seeing her.
Doesn't sound like any kind of pressure, simply informative.
Suppose he could have said, "I'll be spending XX weekend with my mom and gram. You're welcome to join us if you'd like.
It doesn't sound like pushing to me. To me it's more like "My mom and grandma are coming in town, and I intend to spend a lot of time with them. If you'd like to be part of the group, let me know, otherwise, I'll hang with mom and grandma on a weekend we're not doing anything."

This...doesn't sound pushy to me...she can say no.
I was replying to Eve. I meant it as "I don't think anyone is being negative toward this guy at all."
