Is it normal to have a crush on your mom?

i think i have a crush on my mom (in a sexual way, which feels wrong!) is this normal? I'm an only child and my mom is 34 she had me very young 16, we are very close i can talk to her about anything, and she is honestly my best friend, which i know shounds corny but its true. Should I tell her about this, I think it would come off as really weird, and its hard for me to focus on other girls because at the moment all i really want is my mom! what do you guys suggest?

So I have googled this now and according to history and science it is normal for teens ages 11-19 to experience this, but the feelings should fade away quick. History says that a mother son relationship several thousands years ago used to be normal and encouraged but now is considered taboo

  • No, of course it's not! God, has society gone this bad? Now people think its ok to have crushes on their parents.
    Dude, I suggest you get out more. Interact with other females and realize this women gave birth to you. This is abnormal and unhealthy.

  • It is abnormal. If she was your stepmom it would make more sense. I wouldn't tell her because it could damage the relationship. Try to focus on other girls, as hard as it may be.

    • Yea I know what you mean, I don't think I'll tell her, I'm just gonna start asking girls out and hopefully it'll help

    • How would you feel if your son told you that?

    • I don't have a son, but I would be worried, and it would feel awkward.

  • no, u have seen lots of mom and son porn, u should tell your mom your feelings and thak things from there

    • If I tell her I think it'll damage my relationship with her, and I don't want that to happen.

  • Is your dad in the picture? If you don't mind me asking?

    • No my mom got preggers when she was a teen and my dad left her! I have only met him 2 times

    • Then yes its completely normal. Its possible that you imprinted on your mother because she was and still is the number one person in your life and you love her. It could also be possible that she helped you grow into the person that you are and you just want to satisfy her by making her happy and also sexually. Its hard for you to see yourself with someone else because you only see yourself with her. I would tell her the truth but not the whole truth. Tell her that you love her more than a mother and that you can't see her not being apart of your everyday life. Good Luck!

    • You really think so? You don't think it'll damage the relationship? I want to say it cuz I know it'll make me feel so much better

  • Do not say shit, that'll make the situation much more awkward, cause it's not normal to have crush on your mom, not at least at your age.
    You're 18-19, go out there and meet more girls, take your mom out of your mind.

  • It's not normal at all. It's weird. Very weird.
    It's fine to be best friends with your mom and love her in a motherly way, but sexually is weird.
