My son Robert has been dating a girl for six months, but I only recently learned about her.
All I knew was that they met at a café near his college, and she was too shy to meet us.
When Robert proposed, I was thrilled and invited her over for dinner. But when I saw her, I froze.
She looked confused as I led her to the kitchen and locked her in,
shouting for my son to call the police.
I believed she was a scammer.
The police arrived and explained it was a mistake—she had been mistaken for someone else with a similar name.
Embarrassed, I apologized, but she left in tears, refusing to accept it.
My son was furious and hasn’t spoken to me since.
I deeply regret what happened and wish I could undo it.
Any advice on how to fix this would mean the world.
Sincerely, Claudia.
