[Disturbing & Depressing] Back to the future

Post Reply New Topic

This thought is inspired from the classic movie, Back to the Future.

In the movie, when Marty went to the past, (Marty Michael J. Fox) he met his mother by coincidence in the past and she fell for him - and he had to fix that in order not to mess his own existence.

Do you think if you go to the past and you approach...the girl who will be your mother (without knowing it's your mom!) in her prime, let's say in her early 20s or any age before she got married, do you think she would like you?

This reminds me of the Predestination movie plot. He’s his own father, mother, child, and killer.

BTTF is one of my favorites.

“This is all wrong.(pant, pant, pant) I don't know what it is, (pant, pant) but when I kiss you (pant, pant), it's like I'm kissing (pant, pant, pant)... my brother. I guess that doesn't make any sense, does it?”

Noooooo, that wasn’t just the creepiest incest fantasy scene EVER. lol

no, because she would remind me way too much of my summit girl.

my mother would not perceive me as a human male.

No. She'd friendzone me.

No, she is super-straight.
Chances are, we wouldn't even be friends.
And my father would be likely scared of me.

I wonder - do you guys feel some urge to celebrate your feeling of worthlessness in private? Because before the people you have to play strong and successful and it's a pleasure to take the mask off?

^^^Magz, the only truly totally worthless people are accumulated in Washington DC right now.

I think this question makes us (the men at least) to think how similar or different we are from the father when we were in the age he got met the mom and got married.
If I am less attractive than my father_in_past when he married mom, then chances the mom_in_past would reject me.

Logic, no?

in my experience, the most unlikely folks occasionally win one, from the most unlikely people.

My mother was not my type. She wouldn't have liked me, or dug me. She liked tall-dark-handsome types.

my late mother seemed to admire intelligence more than most other things.

I'm pretty sure my mom would NOT like me cuz she didn't seem to like me much till I moved out at 29. She never understood my mental & physical disabilities & was very critical of my Aspie quirks.

After I broke up with my first ex, I realized how much she had in common with my mother at a younger age it was almost frightening. The only different was she was overweight and my mother was a reasonable size back then. Today, not so much. I cringe to think I was attracted to *that* and it a source of great personal embarrassment.
