Momma's Boy

The show had some couples as a guest with their mothers and I was astounded by the stories!

I only got to the last couple as a guest and the couple had been together for 3 years. The guy was a Momma’s boy and the relationship with the girlfriend was almost ready to go into the next stage. EXCEPT that the guy was a Momma’s boy. I’m not exaggerating by saying Momma’s boy all the time. I mean it. The guy and his mother got matching tattoos. I mean, seriously?

The girl told a story about their 3rd year anniversary, how she wanted that day for herself and her boyfriend, the whole day. When they were done with their massage, he called his mother. Is he crazy? I’m sorry to all Moms I may offend, but if the child is not a child anymore, then doing that is very inappropriate. I mean, would anyone, anyone at all want to share their boyfriends, husbands with someone else, even if it’s their mother? When you’re about to start a family, it should be YOUR family. I don’t mean drop the bomb and leave just like that, but priorities have to be set. If you love your girl, then love her completely. Don’t make her feel like she’s just second to your mother. Especially if you say you’re ready for a family.

Imagine years later, after getting married to a Momma’s boy, you have 3 kids and you’re in a picnic. You, as a mother will be playing with the kids while your husband and your mother-in-law gossip like some old, old best friends. How weird is that? Although there is nothing wrong with the mother-in-law being there, if it was family time, don’t the parents need to be together wholly as well?

I felt sorry for the girl. A girl from the audience even asked the guy who he’d pick if he was given an ultimatum, the girl or his mother. He didn’t answer directly, but I feel for the girl. It must have hurt her very much to hear the guy actually saying he wouldn’t let go of his Mom. Although I feel for her, she truly does love the guy because she said that she didn’t want to lose him even if she has to share him with his mother.

In my part, if I was the girl, I’d have just let go. If the guy truly loves her, he wouldn’t let her go through this kind of situation. He may love his mother dearly, but he’d give up everything for his girl. Any girl deserves much better than this. Every girl deserves to be loved wholly and without anyone to share her man with no matter who that other person is. A girl as beautiful as the girl in the show, deserves so much better. I do truly hope that her boyfriend would let go even a little bit of his mother to give a bigger space for his girl in his heart. If not, I hope she finds someone who’ll love her wholly and not make her feel like she has to share.
