Perhaps she's trying to be part of your social circle in a wrong way. She may feel left out of your growing up and your relationships with friends, so she inserts herself into your friends' stories, but it comes across as 'blowing' them instead of adding to them.
She might be over - curious. Some moms are just eager to know everything about their kids' lives and might accidentally overstep when it comes to your friends' stories.
It could be that she wants to give her opinion or advice all the time. Maybe she thinks she has more life experience and believes she can help you and your friends with her insights, but she doesn't realize she's ruining the stories.
If we break it down, 'flashing' has the idea of something being shown briefly or suddenly. So'mom flashing my friends stories' could imply that your mom is sporadically bringing up and telling the stories of your friends. It might be that she finds these stories interesting or relevant in the context she's in, like when she wants to make a point in a conversation or just share some interesting tales she's heard about your friends.
She can use different voices for different characters in the story. For instance, a deep voice for the big bad wolf and a high - pitched voice for the little red riding hood. This makes the story more interesting.
You could talk to your mom about how it makes you feel. Maybe she doesn't realize she's doing it. Just be honest and say that you want her to let you and your friends have your own space to share stories without her interfering.
Maybe she just has a limited repertoire of stories. Or perhaps those are her favorite stories and she wants to share them over and over again because they hold special meaning for her.
Maybe they still have some interest in your life or just out of habit.
It could be that they haven't fully moved on and are keeping tabs on you. Or perhaps it's just a habit and they don't really mean much by it.
Another reason could be that he is just a very observant person. He wants to stay updated on what's going on in the lives of people around him, and for some reason, your stories are more appealing to him. Maybe you have a unique style of presenting things in your stories that he enjoys. It could also be that he is trying to be supportive, especially if you are friends or part of the same community.
Maybe he's interested in you or just finds your stories really engaging.
