I was talking to my son (age 22 and not living at home) today and somehow my MM was brought into the subject. My son has known about Him since close to the beginning, but they have never met. They have chatted a few times on Skype though.
But something I said must have triggered my kid. All of a sudden he was ranting “I don’t like him! I think he’s a creep, and I wish you’d stop seeng him! I really tried to like him for your sake, but I just can’t!”
I was somewhat taken aback. I wrote to my MM and told him what happened and he said it’s okay, to let him take the blame. He didn’t care what the kid thought about him, as long as the kid and I were ok (meaning still talking, etc)
I have the feeling they got off on the wrong foot during one of their chats. I feel weird being in the middle of it. I told the kid that no matter what, I was still his mom, but that I trust my MM completely. I don’t think it’s jealousy on my son’s part (Him taking the place of Dad, since Dad and the kid have their own problems).
I was just hoping they would get along.
It was very sweet of my MM to take the blame.
