[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the mother said was just a friendly phrase. Relax. You take one comment and stretch it into his entire identity. That says a lot about you.[/quote]

I have a son and think a mom who says something like that is a major red flag.  She is expecting the gf to step into mom role and he may also be expecting that.  I’m not saying it’s immediate break up but it’s definitely proceed with caution.

I do think a lot of guys will do what they think they can get away with.  So if they think she will cook for them, they will pretend they’ don’t know how to cook.  If she’s like— look, I find it really unimpressive when guys don’t know how to cook basic meals.  Can you make dinner?  A guy who thinks that cooking is a prerequisite to getting the girl will generally get on YouTube and figure it the heck out.  It’s a little bit like stand and deliver — you need to have high expectations for them, if you expect nothing, they will take advantage of that.  [/quote]

Again, it’s a phrase. You are reading into it way more than you need to. [/quote]
