What do you think of a 39 year old man who is at his mom's house EVERYDAY! They call each other every single day. She calls him and asks for favors everyday...and he goes. She does things for him too. Gives him gas money and gives him food. He works full time! She is not an invilid (Sp). Nothing wrong with her. She drives and works full time job! What is up with them two?! She live about 20 minutes away, and he will drive there sometimes two or three times a day...for what??? Is that normal?

It's OK to call your Mom at that age. But maybe she shouldn't ask him for favors EVERDAY since he's a grown man and his own life. And 2 or 3 times a day? It depends on what the reason is. If it's not for a life-threatening reason, thats kinda crazy.
It doesn't seem normal for a mother of a grown man to always give him gas money or food unless he needs it or his giving it to him just to bless him, like if he did something extremely good to her. It doesnt seem normal for a mother of a grown man to call and ask for favors. She needs to think about her son's life and that he is an adult.
This issue you're asking about it-no, its not normal.

No law has ever been written that says it is wrong for a mom and a son to stay in touch. He either enjoys her company or feels guilty about her living alone. Since she works full time, she has the right to do whatever she wants with her money.
Obviously, you know the whole situation and feel that something isn't quite right. Has he ever been married?

They have a life of their own and its ok to be different. People have a life but its different than urs' in some ways and other ways its not!!! How many people do you know with a son? with a job? that still have a mother who loves them and cares for them? I visit my moms side of the family everyday, every single day, and I love them and they love me, and that's all that matters!!! And I try to let my family know that I love them!!!

definately a mommas boy
it is normal for people to need that attention... it is a bit sad and sick at the same time though
if you are thinking of a relationship with this man then dont bother... he sounds like he is high maintenance and enjoys the attention his mother gives
sounds like she raised him to be a woos and not a man
maybe he doesnt have a woman to give that attention and hget that attention rather that relying on his mother...
i couldnt work out his situation

It definately isn't normal - but that doesn't make it a problem.
Is the father out of the picture? That I would assume has a lot to do with the situation. If not - then you gotta a big time momma's boy on your hands.

Glad he has a good relationship with his Mom, but he needs to stand on his own feet. The good news is that you can tell how a man will treat his wife by the way he treats his Mother. If he has a loving and caring relationship with his Mom he will love and adore his wife (most often).

If you want to know how a man will treat his wife, look at how he treats his mother.
He may be spending too much time with his mother if he is neglecting his significant other (you don't mention whether you are married or dating this guy). But if he knows how to respect his mother, then he at least knows how to respect one woman, and if he can respect one woman, then he can respect other women.

I hope your planning on marring or dating him. Because you will never measure up. Not only is that soo not normal he should be ashamed to let people know he is living like that. They , from what you say act like man and wife, run, and run fast
