#my mom didn't look old imo she just had short hair and unflattering glasses

[dramatic-dolphin]

my mom just told me the funniest story, like i'm sorry that happened to her but i have tears in my eyes laughing at this.

apparently once some guy came up to our flat and said that he was looking for her (my mom's) daughter. because he saw her come up here and he'd like to get to know her. now, you'd think. my mom has two daughters, surely the guy meant me or my sister?

WRONG.

you see, this happened decades ago. my mom was..... [drumroll] SEVENTEEN years old. her "daughter"? her best friend. who was ALSO seventeen years old.

talk about looking old for your age.
