We have weekly Zoom calls because I'm living further away now, and I've been meaning to break the news the last couple times, but can't bring myself to do it.

No, it's just... Not something I've talked to them about before. And I know my mom will have a ton of questions.

You can control information. No one os entitled to all their questions answered. Even your mom. Obviously don't be a dick about it. But if she's a dick about it, that's out your hands

Just slap her ass as she's putting the dishes in the dish washer.
They'll get the hint.

"btw, I met this girl and we have been dating for."

maybe say it over phone and not zoom, if it's giving you more anxiety?

Yeah but what questions are going to be bad to answer.

Why do your parents need a weekly zoom call with you? That seems very excessive.

Link them to your CE topics.
Once they get through the story about the handjob gone wrong, they'll be hooked. By the time they get to ones about your girlfriend, their hearts will be overflowing with joy.

My parents, particularly my mother, are Christian and can be conservative about these things. My hookup stories are not what they want to hear about.

Ah, your girlfriend is dressed up as her zebra fursona 24/7 and your parents aren't about that lifestyle. I get it.

I can relate. I never tell my parents about my dating life. Or really anything about my life at all. Major trust issues.

Honestly I wish I could avoid having my parents know about my dating life. My mom is so nosy and having her ask a bunch of questions is awkward lol. But she watches my son when I go out, so it's hard for her not to know

I live halfway across the country so my parents only see me once a year, if even that. Pretty easy to keep them out of them loop. But it doesn't feel great. Like I'm basically a stranger to them.

It's gotten worse since a lot of my family has gone down the Trump rabbit hole. My current girlfriend is black and liberal, which my conspiracy-minded white mother would not approve. I can't even imagine us all sitting in the same room without getting into an argument.

i've always felt weird about sharing that part of my life with my parents. idk why but it always felt so iffy to me so i usually kept it really private. they didn't know about my (now wife) until we'd been together almost two years and the way they found out was by meeting her in the emergency room with me when i had a surprise medical issue lol
