My Mom Thought No Man Was Good

At 37, I finally found a man I liked — until my mom crashed our date… from inside my closet.All my life, my mother hovered — checking my socks, watching my house from the car, even keeping binoculars “just in case.” At 37, I met Theo and decided, for once, to keep him a secret. That lasted three days.

The night he came over for dinner, things were perfect — until we heard a sneeze from the closet. Mom had broken in and was hiding there… with a thermos and a headlamp. She immediately launched into an interrogation, complete with a sponge-wiping test and a handwritten list of “Rules for Dating My Daugter” (yes, with a typo).Theo left politely — and I was sure I’d ruined everything. But three days later, he returned… to take me and my mom on a surprise date.He brought her to his literature lecture, took us on a boat ride (where she fell in the lake), bought her dry clothes, and even got her to climb a wall. By dinner, she finally admitted: “He’s not so bad.” Then, on his terrace, Theo knelt down and proposed — asking not just for my hand, but also to tolerate my mom twice a week.I said yes.And Mom? She took up Pilates, bought a floral swimsuit, and backed off — a little. Now, we’re not co-dependent. We’re just family.
