Question Posted Tuesday December 19 2006, 11:54 pm
my mom basically freaked out when she found out from my bf's mom that i gave him a hickey.. but it was like awhile back but she just found out tonight. she was all like thats innappropriate and i wouldnt have expected that from you! maybe not but this is like my first serious relationship. so i was like you and his mom and everyone else did it too while yall were growin up and she got pissed. i know she is lookin out for me and doesnt want me to screw up my life over some guy but i mean me and him are both virgins and havent gone past like fingerin/handjobs [im sure she'd kill me if she knew that!!] with each other nor with anyone else and weve been together 5-6 months. i mean im not some wild child and im not gonna screw up my life like that and ive talked to her about that numerous times but i mean is a hickey really that big of a deal??

It could be much worse, which I'm sure is what your mother's main concern is. If you've talked to her about this, then you did make one step towards letting him know that you're not going to do anything, that you may regret later on. But, as a mother and a parent in general, they do tend to worry about their kids. Even if they are over-obsessing over something that isn't much of a problem to is, but it is to them.
I think talking to her is about the only thing you can do, and you have already done this, so I would not mention it again. Unless you feel you should try to talk to her about this again.
