Love /
My Polish boyfriend is a mamas boy what should i do? [28]
The bloke is 20 for christ sake! I was a bloody nightmare when I was 20 and I turned out OK - erm, at least my shrink and parole officer keep telling me!!!!! (Joke!!!)
I'm sure he will grow up in time, maybe he is rebelling so much because his Mother treats him like he is still 5!!!!! My Mother was the same so I NEVER told her what I was doing, where I was, who I was with - and as a result she let go of me and let me find my own way in life. I can guarantee that we have a better, stronger relationship because she allowed me to live MY life - needless to say, once she did let me live MY life, I let her back in again!!!! It doesn't sound to me like he's a Mummy's boy, more like the fact that his Mother won't let him find his own way in life and let him lead HIS OWN LIFE!!!
Sorry to disagree with the general consensus of this thread but I'm just speaking from personal experience. Now, Lyn, where you fit into all this is up to you both. If he is allowed to live his own life and continues to be reckless, selfish and stupid (ie drink driving) then I'd seriously reconsider your future together, but if all this stems from the fact that he is rebelling against a very overprotective Mother then it's hardly his fault. BUT, if this is the case, you may also want to reconsider your future together - who want's a Mother in Law like that!!! LOL
Tough one Lyn, but you are both so young - be wild and free and escape the clutches of THE MOTHER!!!!!!!
