Well I went to Scott's parents' house this weekend with a positive attitude, hoping for his mom to like me a little more. I was super polite and courteous and I really really tried!
The first night was okay. The only problem was we were going to play cards and Scott was getting us drinks so he told me "Go sit down anywhere" so I went and sat and his dad was like "Oh not that chair!" and then his mom walked in and yelled "Get out of my chair!!!" and then they said that there are two chairs that are off limits because they are hers and his. We played cards and went to bed.
On Saturday they weren't around for most of the day (kind of awkward considering two of their kids were at home, one just flew in... my parents make a big deal to be WITH us when we're home). We went out on Saturday night with friends instead of going to a church play his mom wanted us to go to. But Scott said not to worry, she wouldn't be too upset about it. She kept pushing that we had to go to church with them Sunday morning. I said sure, anything to make her happy.
On Sunday morning we woke up and I got showered and put on dressy clothes and made myself look pretty. I was sitting on the couch waiting for everyone to be ready, and thinking I looked pretty cute. His mom walked out and immediately said she hated my purse because it's "puke green" and then she laughed and turned away. That was totally inappropriate! I told Scott later and he apologized and said she just speaks her mind. We were supposed to find a place in church for all of us to sit, so Scott and I sat down and then she came up later after the pew had filled up with other people and got mad at Scott for not letting her sit with us.
We went home and ate brunch and they offered me more food and I said thanks but I was really full and his dad said "She doesn't like your cooking" and his mom said "Fine, she's never getting any food sent home from me then" and I said "No it's really good!" and she was like "If you don't like it, too bad" or something like just completely ignoring what I said.
Scott was looking around the yard to see if I could bring Layla next time or if she'd get out. His mom asked if it's an inside dog and I said yes, and she asked if she goes to the bathroom outside and I said half the time, but she's also pee-pad trained while I"m at work and she FREAKED and said that's so disgusting why would anyone do that etc... she told me to just start kicking "it" outside and "it'll" learn fast enough. I said I don't have a fenced yard so I'd have to put her on a leash every time and she said "Well you can just leave a leash on it" ... I am never taking my dog there.
She also insulted my small town upbringing by saying she would never raise a kid in a small town because they don't get a good education. I kept my mouth shut.
FINALLY we could leave. I got my luggage from downstairs and we were just saying goodbye when his mom said "Oh that's the kind of luggage you need on a trip!" (it's a tiny suitcase that is lime green and black) and I agreed because it's a nice carry-on size but then she realized I wasn't asking why so she said "It's that ugly green so nobody at the airport would try to steal it" and she laughed and I was flustered and didn't know what to say so Scott immediately was like "What's with your ugly green comments all the time?" and she said "Well I guess it doesn't matter what color it is. It could be pink for all I care. Obviously she likes green so I guess if I buy her a present it will be a green present" ... I thanked her for letting me stay for the weekend and we said goodbye and we left.
I couldn't help crying when we got in the car. Scott asked if it's going to be a deal breaker. I told him I have to decide if I like him enough to keep putting myself in the situation where I'm going to feel judged and put down constantly for doing nothing more than dating her son. He said he understands. I told him I can't handle visiting his parents very often and he understood that too. He doesn't even like visiting. I told him I should have told his mom that the dress she wore to church looked like a tablecloth and he laughed and said "Go for it. She won't know how to take it if she's hearing the same things she's saying" and I told him I probably wouldn't go that far but he said if I did he would back me up.
He wants this to work no matter how his mom acts. He hates it. So I guess we'll see how it goes. It just really hurts me to have someone hate me so much when I've done NOTHING wrong.
