Although, maybe you don't get that chance. How someone acts under pressure is telling, and I wouldn't blame him if he didn't trust you enough to date you any more.
Completely agree with both of you.
This is how trust issues develop for **** sake

I would have a very hard time forgiving something like this. It was in fact very cruel of you. I am already very shy when I have to meet new people. Meeting the parents of your bf/gf can already be nerve wrecking enough, but you just made it tenfolds more awkward for him. And not just for him, but your mother as well.

Honestly if you haven't been going out for a long time I can see him dumping you for this.

Okay you can calm down a bit. You don't have to be suffering from a mental disability or PTSD to be upset by something like this.

Don't tell me to calm down right now
The OP is so ****ing triggering you have no idea.
I didn't say you need to have problems to be affected by this, but it certainly does not help.

I think what's worse is that you don't seem all that remorseful about it, evident by saying ''it was just a joke'' and telling that other member to ''loosen up''. Although at least you made this thread, so I do think deep down you might know you messed up. Maybe if you acknowledge your mistake to him and make an effort to understand that you can't play with people's emotions like this, it could still work out. If you can't do that, it's safe to say he doesn't deserve you.

I suffer from Social Anxiety, and if this situation happened to me, it wouldn't really harm me and won't make anything "awkward" in fact it would be a nice way to loosen up when feeling nervous meeting a parent.

As a matter of fact my mom took a kick out of it.
My boyfriend did come around and he did admit that the situation made him feel awkward, he has forgiven me though after countless apologies. But we did laugh about it.

@ThatSassyKid I apologise, try to meditate and find other activities to engage on as I understand this thread has been too much for you. I'm a little concerned. :S

@Scion, thanks for that.

If I was the boyfriend, maybe I'd put a cockroach in your drink to get even.

As a matter of fact I do, and not all people with SA suffer the same. This kind of situation is kind of comical to me personally and wouldn't harm me in anyway. I would just laugh it off.

Hey wait a minute, this is not like putting a cockroach in my drink. That's taking it too far. If he pranked me like telling me he accidentally crashed my car to a post. Then we would be even. I would laugh knowing it's a prank.
