Mom Asking About Aron
Also Mom keeps asking if myself and Aron are "still good."
Like every time we meet up with the folks for dinner, every 2-3 weeks on average (because they travel between Arizona and Toronto once a month). Last night we met up with my folks and the Reinhorns for dinner in a really noise restaurant. Mom texted me (because we literally had to yell to be heard) about him.
Mom: You and Aron good?
Me: Yup. He still gives the best teddy bear hugs. :P
Mom: Not to me he doesn't. Just reserved for you!
It's like she's paranoid we'll break up - I mean, even if that's the case, what is she going to do about it? Intervene if a break up happens?
Also, unrelated, but I'll be hanging out with him for Easter, along with Flora, his best friend and best friend's mom. The family friend has pretty much been part of their social circle since he was a toddler (they spend every holiday celebrating together) so they're basically immediate family. Best friend's Mom has heard about me and really wants to meet me.
Dad asked me if I had met his family yet, to which I said "Oh yeah, I've hung out with his mom and sister. Not his dad though, because his dad travels a lot."
Mom seemed impressed by this. I guess it's because Meeting The Family is a Super Serious Thing So Hopefully This Is An Indicator You Won't Break Up, because they always forget I have hung out a few times already (and it's usually fairly casual), and they always ask, and always seem... surprised.
Also, I Got Told to bring flowers. Complete with pointed looks and a "You BETTER bring flowers and make an impression. It's rude not to."
*sigh* Again, not realizing this is a casual event and not some sort of Celebratory Milestone. But I nodded enthusiastically, thanked them enthusiastically for the advice and promised I would. Then in private I asked Aron and he was like "Yo, you don't have to, but if you insist, fine, we can stop somewhere real quick tomorrow and get flowers."
