Me and my boyfriends mother have never met face to face YET!We neer even talked on the phone before.But he lost his phone this week so she had no way of contacting him except through my cell.(SHE LIVE STATES AND STATES AWAY).I have a 4year old nephew who speakes very good english to be his age and hes on my voicemail saying:%26quot;Auntie cant get to the phone right now,call her back,bye bye%26quot;,cute right?I have gotten 3 job interviews over the last 12 days even with my nephew on my voicemail and ppl always thiks its so cute and continues to leave a message,but today my boyfriends mother heard it and ask did I have kids,he told her no which is the truth and then she tells him %26quot;She needs to change her voicemail because I want to like her but I dont know now,she might have kids%26quot;even after he told her no.So by him being a %26quot;momas boy%26quot; he gets pissed at me and ask me to change it and I said no,it;s not like I have loud *** music or something on there its my Nephew who speaks clear english.I feel if my voicemail is going to dictate if she likes me or not then its not meant to be.dont put my foot down now she'll be telling me how to dress!!!!!WAS I WRONG FOR SAYING NO OR SHOULD I JUST FOLD AND CHANGE IT!Should his mother control our relationship thousands of miles away,AM I WRONG FOR SAYING NO?I like it when i hear a kids voice in a voice msg. it is sooooo cute compared to the regular ones.
keep the msg and don't let the mommy tell you what to do.
be assertive ..dont be rude.
if u start saying ok and yes now...it will be that way all ur life !!! Should his mother control our relationship thousands of miles away,AM I WRONG FOR SAYING NO?You are right and he sounds a ****.Should his mother control our relationship thousands of miles away,AM I WRONG FOR SAYING NO?No.. he is wrong.. He should tell him mother it's not her business. If she is this controlling now.. watch out for later. It doesn't get better. Should his mother control our relationship thousands of miles away,AM I WRONG FOR SAYING NO?I agree with Dimari. However, as my own son grew out of cute stages, I found that I was no longer amused by little kids on answering machines. It annoys me. It's your cell, you can do what you want. If it works for you, fine.Should his mother control our relationship thousands of miles away,AM I WRONG FOR SAYING NO?You need to explain to your boyfriend that you have no intentions of changing anything because someone else thinks its not right. Your boyfriend can explain to his Mother that its your nephew and that it is YOUR phone and he nor his Mother have any right to suggest you change it. If she gets freaked out over that, what does the further hold for you if you decide to get really serious? You and the boyfriend need to set some boundaries and one of them is his Mother.
You also could call her yourself and explain that the child's voice is your nephew and that you like it and have no intentions of changing it. When HER son gets his own phone back, he can do as he pleases on his phone but since he is using YOUR phone, you think it a little inappropriate to suggest you do anything with your own phone.Should his mother control our relationship thousands of miles away,AM I WRONG FOR SAYING NO?NO! You weren't wrong. How dare she that's just stupid, don't change it just to please her or him. Stand up for yourself now or she'll think she can ran over. I'm sure your nephews voice is cute. I have the the kids I babysit on mine and it's adorable. Good luck.
