Mother-in-law

Babe, r u ok?

Yeah…

I just had a dream… about… so much random stuff…

Uhuh…

But anyway. I’m suddenly wondering, r u nervous about my mum coming back?

I’m observing… nervously… 😅

Ur afraid she’s gonna sway me to drop this?

Well… if history repeats itself… 😅

She doesn’t even know you’re back in my life.

She doesn’t?

Nope.

She doesn’t know about my blog.

She’s not gonna try to set me up with anyone.

It’s only when u really show up and I’m about to go on a date with u then I’ll be pretty frank with her, “I’m going on a date”

She’ll ask “with who?”

I’ll say “A Korean guy. Don’t worry it’s nothing serious yet. I’ll introduce u two if it gets serious”

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 NOTHING SERIOUS!!!

Yes… realistically I think that’s all that I’ll say…

She might ask, “what does he do? How old is he?”

And I’ll say, “he’s in business… 37 years old…”

Lol… I think she would ask “what type of business?👀

And I’ll say, “music…”

HAHAHAHHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣 Like I’m a manager or something

Yes… I’m not sure if she’d even connect the dots… to realise that it’s you… back… in her daughter’s life…

Honestly she probably won’t these days… unless we spell it out for her when u two meet for the first time…

Ahhh… I’m feeling nervous… 😳

I don’t wanna introduce you two so soon. Let’s focus on us.

I see…

But we’re not serious until I meet your mother…

Yeah…

It was like that the whole time?

Mmmmm… I seriously talked to her about you back then because I didn’t know what to do. 

Even tho I was a grown legal adult, I didn’t know myself at all.

It’s very different now.

What do u know?

I know I have autistic traits, and coping mechanisms but I’m not diagnosed autistic. I’m not needing NDIS services. I’m so high functioning that I am high functioning. I might not be autistic at all but I have enough self-awareness now to understand and communicate if I’m feeling triggered, or if I need a mental break from a situation. 

I can let u know if I’m feeling low dopamine. I have a whole encyclopaedia of nutritional medicine and herbs in my brain 🧠 and if not there, I know how to search for that information and apply it for my own self-care.

I know my emotional boundaries with my parents and how I’ll put some guardrails up for our relationship. I’m going to navigate this carefully, but generally speaking, I think we’re gonna be fine. I’m 99% certain that my parents will feel so relieved by now. “FINALLY… SHE’S GOT A GOOD MAN TO LEAN ON”

U think that’s how they’ll see me?

Isn’t that what you are, my love?

🥰… 😏… yes… I am your good man to lean on…

So it’s gonna be smooth sailing this time…

What if… we go to the boat show together? All three of us? For an activity?

I think it’s too soon…

Oh…

Let’s establish us two again first… for at least a couple of months…

Okay…

Do u want to greet her when u come pick me up for dates?

Yes…

Lol… I guess that’s okay…

R u getting out of ur car and physically entering our house to say hi?

Yes. I would like to do that.

Should I bring flowers? 💐

Ummm… it’s up to u… are the flowers for me or for mum?!

They’re intended for u but I know ur gonna immediately pass them to her…

Yeah because she loves flower arranging… any bouquet, she’s going to be delighted and arrange it…

Okay 😏💕 I’m definitely bringing flowers every date then… (🤓📝)

Lol… who is she meeting?

Frodo Incognito 😎

But u’ll take off ur sunglasses in our home.

Yes.

R u going to wear contacts?

Initially, yes…

Natural hair, no make-up?

Mmm… do u think she’ll recognise me?

She doesn’t follow music. She only watches dramas…

I see… 👀

Lol… 😘❤️
