Avoiding the sorts of women your mother warned you about, (+ does this still occur?)

My mother never warned me about girls. What I remember is her pointing out how cute this girl or that girl was. When I got older she never disapproved of anyone I dated. But while she was alive, I never got into the "bad girls." I use that term because I'm guessing the intention of this thread is to talk about the "bad girls." OK, I've been with a few of those too, but I enjoyed every minute of it, but then I didn't think of them as bad. The only negatives I ever experienced is that a few girls broke my heart, but that was my problem, not theirs.

My mum did warn me about a couple of pubs to avoid.
I rather liked them.

Interesting that she earned you only about a couple of pubs, (or bars for US forum members), as though you were safe enough with whoever you might meet in the nicer ones!
It is true, "bad company", (as in the kind of people who might lead you astray in some way), can be the most fun to be with, not least because you can't be sure what is coming next.

At one works Christmas party I was put on a small table with three guys from another local site I'd never met before, but I guess the organisers were putting potential trouble makers together, (no idea why I was classed as one!).

Anyway, their antics included blowing up inflatable contraceptive divices like balloons, and getting the waitresses to agree to ridiculous stipulations as to what they wanted to eat, (I spent the whole meal corpses with laughter, and those waitresses gave us royal service, so much did they enjoy all the fun!).

Bringing one of those boys home to meet your parents would certainly have been a risk, and your mum would have to have been broadminded I'd have thought, in order to tolerate them! :)

Please take the thread in whatever direction you choose, because this one is certainly a bit nebulous, (anyone having anything to say about what a mother today might try to warn their son or daughter about concerning a potential partner would be welcome though!). :)

That is too much I agree, though you can imagine them believing they were doing the best by you, even when they were not in reality, and when it comes to it we have to make our own mistakes, if that is what we are doing!
