My mother keeps trying to set me up with guys she finds on dating

My mom also butts her head in places she doesn't need to. She doesn't harp on me to get a girlfriend too often, but about other things, anyway. I'm not particularly close with her either, so I don't exactly feel comfortable telling her to fuck off.

The thing about parents, especially through you mid to late 20s, is that they can't tell when their role has changed. I'm a licensed EMT, but my mom still insists that I could get sepsis if I don't clean a small wound immediately.

It is unlikely that she will listen to you if you ask her to stop, I just have a feeling. Sometimes, I just tell my parents I'm dating someone just so they won't bring it up, and when they do, i just mention off hand that we broke up.

Unfortunately, I don't have any better advice for you

>my parents actually cares about me
Bo hoo. Move out, get independent and they wont have much power over your life.

And
>content with being alone
is a lie you keep telling yourself. Also dudes can get dates and sire children even when they are 35. Girls have to hurry or they become feminazis.

I finally had enough of my mom and moved far away and my life has been wonderful. Of course she guilted me and shit but I stopped telling her anything about what was happening in my life, talked about mundane things and problem solved. Don't miss her at all. If I don't want to hear it I don't answer the phone. She too bounce from one horrible bf to another yet thought she was the expert to tell me how to proceed in my love life. I'm happy alone for now and will take my time if that changes.

Given that your mom is trying to guilt trip you for not adopting her approach to relationships, pretty much the only thing you can do is immediately cut contact whenever she tries to pull this shit. Walk out of the room. Hang up the phone. Stop texting her for 24 hours. This is a means of maintaining boundaries, it's pretty much the only thing you can do when someone doesn't want to acknowledge that they can't and shouldn't have control over your personal life. You'll have to be extremely consistent with this or you'll accomplish nothing.

And you are abnormal for not pursuing a relationship, the same way calico cats are abnormal for having multicolored fur. It has no bearing on your value as a person.

"Mother, I am hereby establishing an absolute rule. I will never, ever, ever go out with any guy you recommend or try to set me up with. You can keep trying if you want, but that is the absolute rule."

I'm a guy in basically the same situation. My father and brother in law are constantly trying to set me up and it's incredibly annoying. The worst part is that they really don't know me very well outside of "oh he likes anime right" so they try to hook me up with random asian women regardless of their personalities and interests.

It may not work but all you can do is refuse and tell her to stop. You're an adult and you'll make your own decisions.

Anything more aggressive than that shouldn't be necessary and would probably harm your relationship.
