Yes, unfortunately. Since my parents have done everything for me instead of teaching me how to do things, it has been my way of "surviving". I hate it and I'm mad at my parents for that. It makes me feel worthless, with no skills and useless. I feel like I'm not independent because my parents handicapped me.
Welcome to America in the 21st Century.
No offense but that's a pathetic excuse. Its easy to fold your arms and say "its your fault for providing me so much love and support, you handicapped me". Just be honest with yourself, you are lazy.. thats why you haven't accomplished what you to do in life.. it has nothing to do with your parents. You lack determination
@lovemedammit That's easy to say when you have not received that treatment. If you use a child to a certain behavior, he will see it as normal. I have been educated like this since I was a child. I know I have some responsibility in this, but it's easy to say that I'm lazy without having lived through that kind of situation. The thing is, i have so many things to learn I don't even know where to start with.
Also, I am not lazy. When it come to work that must be done, I do it. How do you know I have accomplished nothing in my life? I don't know anything about me, yet you still judge with that small amount of information.
However, you are right, I lack determination, which is explained by what I said earlier : I got used to that environment. Nevertheless, if I'm alone, I can survive and do things myself.
I'd date a momma's boy as long as he didn't :
1. Only ever take his mom's side when it comes to our relationship
2. Is planning on living with her for the majority of his life
No I wouldn't. The guy must show me he's very independent. I've met a real mama's boy and it feels very weird when he talks about his mother as it sounds as he had Oedipus complex. Pretty weird.
I knew a mama’s boy. He always relied on her to pay for all his things, doesn’t have or want a job, can’t drive himself to college, always plays his PC games, calls her a bitch when he doesn’t get his way... yeah that’s a big fat NO for me.
Kinda, I'm close with my mom but she does not control my life. I'm actually hanging out half the time at my roommates and half the time at her house at this point in my life. I can find it sometimes easier to relax at her place
No way! He should be independent and not be at his mother’s whims. I have no time for that. There’s a difference between treating your mother with respect and following all her orders.
My boyfriend's parents call him every day. I don't care that much. As long as it doesn't hurt the relationship with your girlfriend, a good relationship with your parents is usually a good thing!
No.
Real mamas boys are whiney and helpless.
I will date a lady's man however - men close to their mothers and sisters, who develop understanding about how women think, act and feel.
If he’s going to tell her every time I curse at him we gonna have a problem.
I am and will always be.
I'll never be able to repay her for making me who I am, attaching to her forever and giving her all I can is the least I can do to try ❤
I'm my daddy's girl. Dating a mamma's boy would be okay as long as we're not both too spoiled. We'd end up living with our parents and unemployed lol
As long as he can take care of himself and thinks for himself... And she doesn't influence our relationship negatively... I don't have a problem
Hell no and I doubt most women would. It’s hard to fuck your man when he’s still attached by an umbilical cord to his mama.
there’s nothing wrong w being a mama’s boy and i would date one as long as it’s not a borderline, creepy obsession w his mother.
In my experience it's kind of a turnoff. It can be an unhealthy attachment to their mother to the point where they won't move out and their attachment interferes with the relationship.
Depends. It would be Nice if he had a great relationship to his mom so they dont fight all the time. However I don't want him to be super attached to her like a baby.
Nope. She doesn't treat me like a child anymore and I don't behave like a child around her.
My mom still treats me like a mommas boy and I’ve been living as a girl since I was 14 😝
It’s sweet if they have a good relationship with their mom of course but not if they’re incapable of being without them or anything weird
Yes as long as he's decently independent. Someone who cares about their mum is cool. Someone who is controlled by his mum is not.
