You made a rebel out of a careless man's careful daughter

Life Recap
My two jobs over the summer ended and I have acquired two more jobs. Who said we were in a recession?
I started at Claire's in the Coms as a part-time Keyholder. It was alright.
I then asked the Math Dept at OCCC if they needed any Teaching Assistants and the department chair directed me to the tutoring center. So, now I'm a almost full time math tutor for OCCC.
I tried to quit Claire's, but they wouldn't let me. Now I'm a seasonal employee who works at max 12 hours a week.
Whatever.
I am currently studying for the GRE and beginning to work on graduate school apps for Fall 2011.
Hopefully I will be able to talk to some of my Hammy profs this weekend about recommendations.
end/Life Recap

My mother told me that I don't go out much.
Most of my friends live in different parts of the country trying to figure out life post-Hamilton.
Some of my friends are still away at college.
A few of my friends live close by and I do see them quite regularly, like Jess.
My mother replied, "Yes, but Jess already has her boyfriend."

I'm sorry, what?
Is it finally that time? Is my mother FINALLY ready to push me off on to some man? I don't know whether to be thrilled that my mother no longer has the need to control me or offended that she thinks it's about time I had a steady man in my life.
I mean, when do I have time between working two jobs, studying, and keeping up with friends and their busy schedules to go out and meet a guy?

She just doesn't want me to be with you.
But, after all the guys I've met, none of them have ever compared to you.
And they knew it.
That's why they all left.

My mother thinks moving back to Long Island will improve my social life.
Sure - I'll make more friends to hang out with, but there's no place that will ever make me forget about you.

"Jackie, you're one of the only girls I've managed to keep in my life for over 6 months."
Four possibilities:
1. Any other girl can't tolerate you.
2. You can't tolerate any other girl.
3. I'm an idiot.
4. All of the above

Why don't you come home and we'll figure it out together?
