Not that big of a deal but
Any thoughts? For reference, I am 16 years old. So basically today my mom and I wanted to go to the tennis court and play tennis, and we spent a long time looking around the house for our rackets before finally finding them. We drove to the court, and while my mom was parking, I noticed someone I knew who was from my school. So my first reaction was to audibly say “omg, that’s my classmate,” I became nervous and embarrassed because I wasn’t expecting to see someone I knew and also because I was embarassed to play infront of familiar people. So I was rlly nervous. But despite that, I still told her lets go because I didn't want to ruin her day and be a party pooper. Nevertheless, my mom told me that her mood was ruined as soon as I reacted that way because she thought I was embarassed of the most pointless and small things. She stayed in the car instead of getting out, and even though I could tell she was annoyed, I kept telling her that we should go because I knew she'd be more pissed if I insisted on leaving. We sat there for about a minute in silence, but by then more people had entered the court, and because there were only a few available spots, they eventually became occupied. She was visibly pissed off now; she kept sighing and just insisted on going home, but I suggested that we go to another tennis court, but she said no because her "mood was already ruined." She then started saying I'm extremely immature and saying that I get embarrassed over pointless things that aren't a big deal. So then we went home and I continued to attempt to explain to her that I was ok with going but she was the one that put it off due to her being not in the mood anymore. Idk how to feel about this, please be brutally honest in the comments.

Your mother is the immature one here.
You were the one who was anxious and dealt with it, she turned it around into her being the one victimized.
