Eeyore has been "dating" this girl for about a month. My sister knows the girls family (and has for about 10 years) and says there is no way the mom would allow her freshman daughter to date. I explained that their "dating" relationship consisted of Eeyore walking her to her bus after school, texting and talking on the phone.
I offered to let the girl come with on one of our family outings this week but she wasn't able to/wasn't allowed/didn't want to/???
Last night, Eeyore and her talked about having him come to her house and hang out today. Per Eeyore, last night her mom said she'd think about it. Eeyore woke up at 1:00pm, showered and said 'see ya' cause he was walking to her house.
Umm....hold your horses there sugar...
1. Do you know her address? No, but I know what neighborhood she lives in.
2. Did you mean to try and walk over a mile in your brand new boots? My gym shoes aren't cool.
3. Did you confirm with her that her mom said yes and that they are expecting you at this time? No.
Umm....so you are just going to show up at her house. Not sure that her mom is going to be okay with that. That assumes that you can even find her house (he showed me the address he had written down --he had the street name wrong, I was able to figure out which street he meant but he would not have been able to do so.)
He's on the phone with the girl now. I don't think she actually asked her mom.
He just decides how something "should be" and then gets all upset when the world isn't that way. I feel bad for him. I don't know how to get him to understand that society has norms and that he needs to learn them.
