Today, I expressed my feelings to a guy I've liked for a long time. He basically turned me down because I have the same name as his mom, and dating me would be too weird. FML

He has a point..imagine him calling your name out in bed.

I don't see why it would be weird, unless he calls his mom by her first name.

Is his mom's name something extremely generic like "Jenny"? And who actually calls their mom by their first name? It seems like an excuse.

I call both my parents by their first names. My dad since I was like 8 and my mom since I was like 10. People always think it's weird, but I don't see the big deal. I could never date someone with the same name as my dad though. It would be ugh I think.

Yeah, I couldn't moan out my Mom's name during sex.

For some it really doesn't matter they know that a persons name doesn't connect them to other people...both my uncle and cousin are with women with the same name as their sister.

Unfortunately for OP, her love interest is not one of those people.

If your uncle and cousin share a sister, then dating women with a family name is probably a perk! (cue the banjos)

I agree that this sucks, but I could never date or sleep with someone that has the same name as my father or brother.

I can't date guys who are bald or shave their head bald because it would remind me of my bald dad, which would be totally weird and awkward!

My dad is also bald and I feel the same way! Although if my bf lost his hair years down the line, I wouldn't dump him or anything of course.

I'm sorry but I can totally relate to what he did....

That sucks for you, but I definitely do understand where he's coming from.

that does suck, but I'm the same way when it comes to guys lol
