By the end there I think Matt finally realized that this way of trying to pick or rather trick a bride by his family's standards was never going to work. Matt's mom is pretty messed up, and even if they were able to finally trick someone into marrying into this family, it wouldn't last long.
I will never understand why some people just can't stay out of things that don't concern them. If Naomi / mother dearest would have stayed out of it her life would have been great
My aunt has wanted my brother and mother to reconcile for YEARS. She complains that he never visits us. He came last Thanksgiving and she “passed a message” from our mom (she wasn’t there or he wouldn’t have been). I finally told her that his relationship with his mother is NOT a family project. I’m the only other oldest on that side of the family, so I’m the only one that stands up to my aunt.
That’s because so many women are enculturated that they are less than men and they become wives and mothers and not a person any longer. Then they don’t know what to do with themselves when their kids grow up.
That’s what leftover mothers want. My stepmother gently “reminded” me that I’m marrying into his family. I squashed that immediately. I said “no, I’m marrying HIM and have NO OBLIGATION to the rest of his family”. She hasn’t brought it up since.

So mother dearest was looking for a personal maid for her son to marry? She didn't care about anything else but having someone do everything for her
