Is this sweet or a bit controlling (or a bit of both)? For context this is about a previous job I had that my mom has already said she thinks I should go back to, but I'm not planning on it.

i mean it just seems kind of manipulative, but she might genuinely believe what she's saying. if she does, it's kind of sweet, esp since she does say at the end like "no pressure i just had to tell you!"

from the perspective of a christian with an increasingly controlling mother, i wish i got a text like this lowkey, but if she’s never gone to church before or isn’t generally religious otherwise, that’s where i’d question if it’s manipulation or not

I don’t think she’s being manipulative esp bc of what she said at the end. It doesn’t sound like she’ll hold it over your head or be upset with you at all if you don’t go work that job

think it’s a little bit of both. It sounds caring because she’s sharing something she genuinely felt and leaving the final decision up to you, but mentioning that it might be a message from the Holy Spirit could put some pressure on you. At the end of the day, you’re allowed to decide for yourself whether you want to go back to that job.

I didn't take the job and she hasn't seemed upset about it so it seems you were right
