5 WAYS TO TELL HE IS A MAMA'S BOY....

1.) He calls her “Mommy.”

Every now and then, this is okay. But, at some point, a man has got to graduate to a good sturdy “Ma” or “Mom.” You should be cowering with fear that you’ve fallen in love with a punk ass if he continuously referred to her as “Mommy” and she gladly answers.

I call my mother "Mommy"

2.) He won’t date a woman his mother doesn’t “approve” of.

You definitely want your guy’s mom to get to know and love you. However, if she’s bashing you because you don’t press his socks and hand wash his boxers, get ready to make a quick exit because he’s not looking for a wife, he’s looking for his mom, and YOU can never take HER place. Furthermore, you want a man who can trust his own judgements on who and who not to date.

She has to approve of ANY and EVERY body I date.

3.) He’s always bringing her along.

It’s never cool for you to tell your guy that you don’t want his mom around, so there will be times where you’ll have to oblige. But please note it should be prefaced with: baby, my mom’s coming with us today, but after we do what we do with her, let’s do…..” We can’t say no to that, and we’ll more than likely have a great time with the both of them. For example, house hunting is a great outing to include his mother, but she does NOT have to be a part of bed sheet shopping to follow.

She likes to travel with me and come to stay at my place as often as possible.

4.) He has to call his mom every time you have an argument or disagreement to seek council.

Bottom line, a man should be able to articulate his thoughts and ideas without his mom’s help. It’s one thing to seek advisory under certain circumstances i.e. cheating, irresponsible mothering, addiction and so on. If your man is calling his mom over the smallest disagreements to feel justified, that’s a problem. You already know who she’s going to side with and come running to his rescue while bashing you. Once again, you will never trump the importance or position of a man’s mother so consider a lost battle and move on, with great speed.

5.) Talks to his mom all day, everyday.

If the first thing your man does when he wakes up and last thing he does before he goes to sleep is call his mom, you already know you’re in direct competition with her and you won’t win. If she’s ill, widowed or elderly then by all means, constant communication is necessary and you shouldn’t interfere. But if she’s still fairly young and spry, she could let her son live, firstly, allow him privacy, second, and lastly, let him manage his own love affairs.

I talk to my mother almost everyday!
