You know every text I get from my mother right now is about how wonderful you are. I think you made an impression.

Interesting is a polite word for her. But I'm glad it went well.
She might actually stop fussing about my ability to take care of myself.

Is it odd that I’m relieved I made a good impression?
You’re more than capable of taking care of yourself

It's not. I was a tiny bit nervous she would make a terrible impression.
Fully capable by adult standards, less so by mother standards.

Ah yes. That age old one.
Not so surprisingly, you're only the third women she's ever said that to.

My high school sweetheart got the talk and one of the women at the firm I dated for a while.
No one else measured up to my mother's standards.

On the scale of women I've dated and my mother's perception? Exceptionally special.
Not that I told her we were... Just I was staying with you while she was here.

I wouldn’t mind if we were, you know.
Though this is a conversation probably best had in person

How about over dinner, at a restaurant?
