Picture this: You’re on a first date with someone you barely know, and their mom calls not once, not twice, but FIVE times within two hours. That’s what happened to a 27-year-old woman who went on a date with a 30-year-old man named Jack. The two were set up by a mutual friend and decided to meet at a cafe. Little did she know, Jack’s mom would be joining them… via phone.

Is Sharing the Bizarre Date Story Wrong? ♀️
While the woman admits she might be in the wrong for sharing Jack’s private business with others, she couldn’t help but be weirded out by the constant calls and recaps to his mom. The situation escalated when Jack found out people knew about his mom’s involvement in the date, leading to angry texts and accusations of racism. The woman remains firm in her decision to cut ties with Jack, blocking him after receiving more of his not-so-nice messages. What do you think? Was sharing the story out of line or just a harmless recount of an unusual date? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
