I live with my widowed mum (I'm 36). I've always lived with her and I work full time. We get on extremely well together. I am not married, as 'it's just not happened yet'. I'd loved to be married one day, but can wait. Mum and I enjoy each other's company very well and go out a lot together. She is my best friend too. We do have our own very few friends of course, but we have no family whatsoever (all dead). The problem is, I have had comments made by christians at church like, "You can go places without your mum you know" and from a pastor, "You really need to try and detach from your mum, as it looks like you do everything together but have the sex!" I feel I am being judged and also being a christian, I feel it is my duty to (1 Tim 5 v4) look after her, in which I have no complaints about. What do you think? I love my life with my mum.
