Starting a new job can be exciting, but it can also come with some unexpected challenges. One woman (20F) found herself in a sticky situation when her assistant manager, Sherry (45F), tried to set her up with her son, Travis (19M). Initially, she was open to the idea of meeting him, but after a disturbing revelation about Travis's behavior, she changed her mind. Now, she's left wondering if she's in the wrong for turning him down. 😕

Was She Wrong for Rejecting Travis? 🤔
After hearing about Travis's dependency on his mom, our protagonist decided she couldn't go through with the date. Sherry, however, didn't take the rejection well and accused her of not understanding because she's not a mom. Now, our protagonist is left questioning if she's in the wrong for turning Travis down. She's learned her lesson about mixing work and personal life, but was she really the a**hole in this situation? Let's see what the internet thinks of this awkward predicament... 😬
