Hey all, it's Siren...Okay. Usually I pose my issue and ask for opinions, but I actually have a problem this time. Sorry about the length...I can't help it.
Here's the issue at hand:
My boyfriend's family is going to Mackinac for halloween weekend, and leaving him home alone. He's invited me over and would not object to my spending the night. My mom does, though. Here's how our conversation went: "Hey mom, how much would you object to my asking you if I could spend the night at my boyfriend's one weekend?"
"I...would...no. It's not appropriate."
"Just like, one weekend..."
"NO. You're not his wife, you're not engaged, it's not appropriate."
(The worst thing about that is we technically are kind of engaged. He proposed, I accepted.)
She's refusing to even CONSIDER it. How do I get her to let me do what I want? I mean, she lets me stay over at my guyfriend Sean's house when he has parties and we all drink...that's WORSE. My bf was actually at one of those parties, but she doesn't know that.
So...help me out? Bottom line is I want to get her to okay it. I don't want to lie, and I don't want to sneak around. I hate keeping things from mom. How do I do this?
Well, I'm assuming you're over the age of sixteen. But I'm going to say exactly what the person below me said. "Mom, I'm ___ now, I'm an adult and I am responsible for my own actions and well-being. Whatever happens, not that anything will, I will take responsiblity for. I'm not your little girl anymore.". Just have a mature conversation with her about it.

(Rating: 5) I have no issues being mature about it - I usually am. She, though, tends to snap "NO" before I finish my thought. Lol. Thanks, though. =)
