Opinions on a situation
So I met a guy while playing. He seemed like a good person so after a month or two of talking we started dating. Of course he sent me pictures of himself, told me his name, where he lives, age and I even got to talk to his parents and friends. He seems legit so I told my mom about him. She panicked when I told her and almost made brake up with him. Eventually mom and him talked on a video call and she calmed down a bit. The problem is she's always suspicious of him and asks tricky questions. I don't want to to suspect he might be a bad person (not that I didn't considered it just don't want to be questioning every little thing he does) but my mom makes it really hard. She even did a background research on him to make sure he was 100% legit. My relationship with him is really good and I really like him but the anxiety of always questioning whether he is real or not hits hard. I never expressed this to him because I don't know how to. Plus his never or rarely given me a reason to doubt him/ given sketchy vibes. I know our way of meeting wasn't the safest and I did take into consideration all that could happen. Just to clarify I'm not a minor just live with an overprotective family. And I have been dating him for a bit now.

You could say, meet up with him at a cafe while your mom sits a few tables away just to keep on eye on things. Given the relationship you've built with hi...... 2 reply
Just do you... if you like him you like him.... your mum is just being a bit overprotective but that's how mums are.... if you feel like he's not worth it drop him like a hot potato but otherwise see where things go first before making any conclusions 1 reply
Well I've only had an online friend once but everyone says it's sketchy so your feelings of anxiety are completely reasonable. I think you should talk it out with him...he might actually feel the same way towards you. Neither of you can be sure of each other ╮(￣▽￣)╭ So maybe give your mom a little leeway? She's being rightfully protectiv...... reply
