a momma's boy is a guy who is weak minded. his mother does everything for him, makes his meals, does his laundry, makes his decisions for him when he's past 18. these men cling to their mothers in a very very unnatural way. they NEVER treat the women they date/marry well because their mothers have brainwashed them so horribly against other women that no other woman will ever measure up.

that is a true momma's boy.

[been_waiting]

I don't agree with that definition.
My brother is what I think of as a mama's boy. He's very close to her, closer to her than anyone else in the family, her opinion is the most important one to him, he's sensitive and caring in a feminine way, etc etc

And he treats his gfs very well.

[thewanderingme]

does he NEED your mother to do close to everything for him? if not, he's not a mommas boy.

[been_waiting]

Not really.

And you don't make up definitions. Its opinion.

[NovemberJoseph]

Exactly ^^

[thewanderingme]

same difference.

[Prettygurl12]

Yeah... no. I don't want to be competing with his mother for his affection.

I don't quite agree with your definition, however. That sounds like a very specific definition of a very specific person.

[thewanderingme]

I asks for others to share their definition.

please, share yours.

[Prettygurl12]

Most of yours is good. Just not the part where you said they ALWAYS treat their gf/wife poorly. The SO will never win against the mother, but that doesn't mean he will treat her poorly. My dad is a bit of a momma's boy (only slightly) but it drives my mother absolutely insane. If my grandma needs her lawn mowed but my mom wants the garage door fixed... he'll mow the lawn. And then not do the garage door. Doesn't mean he's not attentive in the rest of their relationship. It's all good until my grandma calls for a favor.

I love my dad, but I don't want that. I want to be number one. All the time.

[thewanderingme]

ok, I agree with your description.

[thewanderingme]

although, I consider that being treated poorly. maybe not horribly so, but a little.

[BuchitaBuchys]

No, cuz they insist on including their mom in everything.
Worst. Threesome. Ever.

[thewanderingme]

lol.
...

[BuchitaBuchys]

Haha I'm jk :P

But I don't know. I don't know if I'd like having to compete with his own mother for attention. Not my style. I understand moms want the best, but chill lol Let your boy out past 10 eh? I won't taint him too much ;)

[JustinX9]

i'm the only child so i'm a mommas boy i love my mom but i can stand for myself... my mom only give me advice but at the end of the day the decision would still be mine

[thewanderingme]

then you're not a momma's boy, which is good. (:

[JustinX9]

well i'm closer to my mom than any of my relatives or family members... so i'm a mommas boy... its just i dont have freedom just like other guys in my age

[zinithin]

Wow, I'm surprised yes is doing so well off the bat.

[thewanderingme]

me too! I don't think most of them realize what a mommas boy actually is.

[WhaChaChaKing]

Hell no. I need to be the most important person in his life not his mom. Besides those relationships always come off as a little incesty.

Buuut with your definition of a mama's boy I don't think any girl would want to date that.

[thewanderingme]

lol, ew! I think most people don't realize that that IS what a momma's boy is like.

though, it's true, not all are complete assholes to their girlfriends.

[kangy]

Vote c
I would never
mummy boy is always agreeing with mum opinions and not having a stand of his own. I dont like puppet

[thewanderingme]

no, nobody wants to date someone who can't think for themselves.

[Anonymous]

Dating "mama's boy" is a great way to know how a man will treat you. Most of the time, if he has real respect for his mom, he'll have endless respect for his gf/wife.
I'm currently in a relationship with a "mama's boy" and he makes me feel like I'm on top of the world.

[thewanderingme]

read my response to the woman below you. you're confused what a momma's boy is.

[zorro8888]

Unless he leaves you to go cuddle with his mom

[thewanderingme]

@zorro8888 lol. that's a true momma's boy.

[zorro8888]

You should understand that being known as a momma's boy means he puts his mother before anything and everyone else including you... You have a guy who respects and loves his mom but isn't crazy about it lol but yeah cuddling is the extreme haha

[thewanderingme]

@zorro8888 when you start off dating, that's ok. he should still put family first. but once you're serious and committed (especially married), his momma should no longer come first. she should still be very important and an influence in his life. but no longer first.

[zorro8888]

Haha exactly what I think lol but some guys are never ready to release that attachment
But the cuddling is a no no from the very beginning LOL

[DontDropIt]

Probably not. They'd most likely want me to be the same way as their momma and it ain't happenin'.

[thewanderingme]

ha ha, it is weird and annoying.

[cheonsongyi]

I'm totally not for it, it's creepy. Well, but a guy who loves his mom yet can stand for himself is cool.

[iSolemnlySwear-meow]

Let me tell you how a guy treats his mom is a huge indicator on how he will treat you.
I love momma boys because they always have such a cute bond with their moms.
AND I LIKE TO BABY MY GUY ANYWAY.

[thewanderingme]

how a guy treats his mother IS DEFINETLY an indicator how he'll treat the women he dates.

but mommas boys tend to cling to their mothers and are assholes to the women they date "cause no woman will ever be as good as his mommy". they have unhealthy/twisted relationships with their mothers.

[iSolemnlySwear-meow]

I disagree I have dated a few momma boys and they always have all treated me well. Plus, if their moms approve of you they will never break up with you because ether mom's opinion means a lot. I feel like as long as you respect yourself no man will disrespect you in an asshole like way while dating you regardless if they're momma boys or not.

[thewanderingme]

wow! that last statement is horribly naive.

[TheWiseOwl]

My Mother makes my meals for me and does my laundry. *starts crying*

[linkywinky]

Uhhh, yes, as long as he's not a creepy mommas boy.

[thewanderingme]

their always creepy.

[linkywinky]

you're right, my brain was thinking something else entirely. I retract my statement.

[thewanderingme]

lol. I think everyone was just thinking a nice guy who's sweet to his mother. which of course I'd want. (:

[Born2shine01]

No... I don't like guys that can't do anything for themselves.

[blondfrog]

It depends how much of a mommas boy he is, but I don't think they would.

[Mc_Muffin]

I imagine a mamas boy (like me) being more affectionate and kind towards women.

[NovemberJoseph]

Don't agree with your definition. Regardless, most girls wouldn't.

[thewanderingme]

well, share your definition. that is apart of my details.

[NovemberJoseph]

Same as @Prettygurl12's definition

[thewanderingme]

we basically say the same thing, just that I see them as clinging to their mothers and not being able to fend for themselves much.

[NovemberJoseph]

That's a strictly more severe case though, not all momma's boys are like that. And not all of them treat their gf's poorly.

[thewanderingme]

no, but most.

[Anonymous]

Isn't every guy, who doesn't have an absolute bitch for a mom, a "mama's boy" to some degree?

[thewanderingme]

nope. a momma's boy can't take care of himself. needs mommys approval/guidance for everything.

[Opinion Owner]

Oh damn then that's no good!

[Ihav2fart]

Sooo answer your own question. ;P

[thewanderingme]

I did in the past. never again.

[Ihav2fart]

Hmmm, I love my mom but I'm not close to my mom at all.

[thewanderingme]

well, it's good that you love her. it can be hard with parents sometimes.

[Ihav2fart]

what if I let my momma make my dinner, does my laundry, cleans my room, and makes my bed cause she feels useful when I let her? I'd still almost always treat the girl I date

[thewanderingme]

understandable, if you're still living at home. and so long as you CAN do those things for yourself.

[thewanderingme]

wait! your mom cleans your room and makes your bed still?

actually... ... ... ::runs away::

[Ihav2fart]

Well I let her do it a quarter of the year, cause thats how much I see her in a year.

[thewanderingme]

mmhmm, it's ok. ;P

[Ihav2fart]

Wanna date me?

[thewanderingme]

@ihave2fart you know it! ;)

[Ihav2fart]

You're breaking my heart before we even started :(

[thewanderingme]

[thewanderingme]

[Ihav2fart]

[thewanderingme]

sure.

[RestlessYouth_]

I have, and just never again

[JackKerouac77]

I should give my mom more hugs

[thewanderingme]

that's sweet! it doesn't make you a momma's boy.

[JackKerouac77]

People should like their moms unless they have a good reason not to!
