My father passed earlier this year and I mentioned to my mother that if you want to move home, now would be a good time, since her life was going to change regardless and she has never liked it out here. Her home is Scott County Virgina, very country. Someone she knows and is like a sister with is the lady who sold us our house. I am getting the gut feeling she has her sights set on me. It's just the way it seems to be coming across to me.
# Almost immediately after I was in the chat with her and my mother, she mentioned she was not in a happy marriage. "My husband is so domineering. He rules the roost and won't let me make decisions. Really!?!"
# She let it be known that when her husband watched sports, she is sitting in another room watching Netflix.
# Out of the blue, while at her house meeting the loan agent and signing, she has to get or adjust something which needs a step stool. "Hold me." She instructs. I made a comment of "okay but if your husband walks in, I'm just helping." Which she didn't respond too but I don't think I said it that quietly. My mother heard me say the first part clearly and she was at least 10 feet away.
# She mentioned she had spare rooms and if need be "I could sleep upstairs and she could sleep in the room right next to me". I believe the inference was mom would take her room and we would be in adjacent guest rooms.
# She has made the comment that "I may not be able to get rid of her."
# She asked if I played pool. I said I liked to but I wasn't good but then her topic changed without following that up.
# She mentioned an actor lived in town but she couldn't remember what he had been in. I said no worries, I would look it up on IMDB. Her response. "Yes, I need to remember that site. You can tell me! Hehe"
# said she will be asking me for computer help since her husband is too impatient and daughter (who she looks like a sister too) is too busy to help her.
# She is hoping me and my future neighbor across the street hit it off though. This is a counter point to my gut feelings and shut down the top logically unless she is looking for something on the side though she is religious.
# "Ever we old woman love to dance with out sons! Especially our sons." (She has no son.)
#"Tell me what you prefer to drink and I will stock it."
# Her and my mother are cousins 4 times removed and they are chatty like sisters.
# I mentioned my concerns to my mother, logically. At first mom was like no, shes just being friendly but a few hours later, mother also did mention when her cousin said I could stay upstairs and that she, her cousin, could stay in the room next to me. After that the ONLY thing my mom said too this is "she is older than you". Which surprised me is that was her only voiced concern. LOL!
# She knows I'm widowed and suffer with daily migraines. She has health problems and is super sympathetic.
# When she showed us the new house, I spent more than half the time with her (10 minutes I'm guessing), in the outside basement and her showing me what, really, could have been handled in one pass.
I mean I am flattered. She is married but also thinks I will be a good match for my 'across the street neighbor' neighbor. Am I just not country and its coming across wrong or what? I am 47, my mother is 75, and mom, i believe, mentioned she is like 15 years older than me. Not a problem just stating ages as that can affect words people use and how they take them.
Thank you
