This is a long thread and I didn't read the responses so pardon me if I'm repeating someone else. Here goes: 1. Tell your mom to mind her own business 2. Seek some counseling to help with your self-esteem/dependency issues 3. Be glad this girl got away. She sounds like a selfish person who would have strengthened her grip over every aspect of your life and strangled your will to live eventually 4. Have sex with some other girl(s) but don't get attached to them
Again, I think you're being unfair. I'm thinking that even if the mom had never said anything about the girl, the guy would have backed out anyway because he wasn't ready. His mom's opinion is just a crutch and an excuse. Blaming her is not going to solve anything he wasn't ready for marriage the girl was nobody is in the wrong just two different people at two different places in their lives. Life goes on.
LOL Attention clutchfans... Make sure you to keep your mother far from Moe... He might go MMA on her ass...
It WAS his decision. His mom didn't force him to do anything. She shouldn't even be a part of the discussion. You should be punched in the face for suggesting he punch his mom in the face
OP did say she had jealousy issues. That's a whole different ball of wax than strong advice. It's weird emotional game playing. She didn't force him to do anything the same way your parents never forced you to listen to them when you were growing up.
It's a tough spot a tug of war basically. You're not forced but if you don't do what they say you feel guilty.
He decided because mommy said so and he was too chicken **** to tell either of them what he really felt. He should scissor kick his mom in the trachea.
He decided because HE wasn't ready to get married. He did what his gut felt but not his heart. If the girl REALLY loved him she would've stuck by him. I've seen girls who've been beaten, had their dogs killed, shot at, but they still stick by the guy. Call that stupidity or loyalty but that's the kind of girl you want. If she's really down for you she will NEVER leave.
Stuck by him like his mommy would? Don't leave me mommy, please don't leave me. How old are you? Do you still live at home?
wow, what a thread...only read part of it, so my advice may be too late... 1) Do what you want, don't make decisions to make others happy... 2) If you're not ready for marriage, you're not...don't force it as it's not fair to either of you, people will get hurt... 3) If you truly love this woman, it wouldn't be that hard to suck it up and get married, and it wouldn't matter what your mom or anyone thought... 4) If it doesn't work out, you can always get divorced... If you can't stop thinking about her, is it because you miss her, or is it just that you just need someone there...
