[quote=Anonymous]I have a weird mom.  For example

She always thought I was unattractive (and I was a very dorky, ugly kid) but sometimes would try to make me feel better.
When I started seventh grade she was always asking me about boys, had I kissed anyone yet, etc. 
She seemed to really want me to have a boyfriend.
None in my small group of friends were kissing boys or trying to date anyone, beyond having a crush on someone or whatever, and I was shy and dorky anyway.
Anyway, after much prodding (and she promised she wouldn't tell anyone!) I made up a story about how a certain boy who I'd known from elementary kissed me by the lockers at school.
A few days later, a different boy who was also from my elementary came up to me as we were leaving school and was all "woohoo! Hey I heard all about you and Finkel!!!"
I was mortified.  I went home super angry.  My mom confessed that she had shared the information with the other boy's mom at some mom party, and well...
I never owned up to making up the story, though should have. And I never trusted her again...
There must have been a bit of confusion caused by this.  I can only imagine how strange the other moms must have thought her to be.

This is only one anecdote in a long history.  I don't want to become this person - I know I won't anyway, but anytime I see myself doing anything my mom might have, I freak out a little.[/quote]
