So I had a female "friend" tell me that I had mommy issues because I didn't want to date her friend. I didn't want to date her friend because she physically reminded me of my mother. I mean she looked like a younger version of my mother. Now that's not bad thing, my mom is a wonderful woman and not unattractive. I just find it weird to date a woman who looks like my mother. Is that not normal?
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

This is interesting I can't even date a woman with the same first name as my mother because it weirds me out, let alone one who looks like her!
Your friend was just annoyed you rejected her friend.

Yep.tryst type said:
Any kind of sweeping statement like that is really just a shaming tool/device.
They hope you'll 'prove' them wrong by doing what they 'want' you do to.
Don't read anything into it, I'm sure she didn't put very much thought into it.
The hardest thing for most humans to do is say something like this:
"Even though your opinion is different than I'd like it to be, and even though I disagree with it, I respect it as your opinion and we'll just leave it at that."
It's much easier to say:
"You're Wrong! You are wrong because of X!"
Where X is the first simple to understand idea that pops into their head.
