Am I in the wrong here? 😕 So I’ve only been dating my bf for a few weeks now. And he wants to...

Not overthinking things at all. You’re a grown woman who should be the one who determines if/when you introduce your partner to your parents.

Ultimately it's you in this relationship. I understand your mom wants to meet him and probably even feels entitled to meet him on her terms. As a mom though, my beautiful bestie. You are perfectly in your rights to decide when the time is right for you. Just talk to them both and tell them you're not comfortable yet

Your Mom is an awful lot like mine.
My mother practically ruined a long term girlfriend of my brother’s because of the way she treated her. Your Mom is not entitled to meet your boyfriend until YOU are ready especially if you see long term potential with this lucky guy!

If you are not comfortable tell your mom and boyfriend that. You are not overthinking it.

Trust your feelings, if the idea makes you uncomfortable it's definitely not the time yet

You can't win in this situation so you just have to do what is most correct for you. In my opinion only, you should find the proper timing and tell you mother that you love her and love that she wants to meet your new friend and you cannot wait to do that when the timing is more correct in the relationship but that time isn't right now. Your dad seems to be level, take him as a partner.
Best of luck, good energy your way.

Your MOM, is correct.

remember what Boney M had said "Mommy , Mommy Cool"
Let her cool down, and your mind he relaxed about her , then bring the two together.

Does he know how she treats you? If he doesn’t now is the time to tell him. It’s got nothing to do with him but everything to do with your Mom and setting boundaries.

I am certain he would be supportive of you 🩷.

Let him come meet bring your mom flowers and apologize and ask if he can date you. Go out to dinner and move on

He might be traditional himself. The fact you asked this means you aren't ready yet. Let him know, he will most likely understand.

Sounds like your mom should chill a bit it should be when you’re ready not her
