I wish my mum had started dating again after my father passed away but she hasn't and it's not likely she's gonna start to now.
Your mum has her needs and you should be happy for her and support her.

Be happy for her, she is happy and probably has needed to be for a long time, I am sure you two will remain friends and be close. She just needs a male figure in her life that is going to complete that "love" part that maybe she was missing before. I was bothered at first by my parents dating, but all in all, it's good for them, and they back off on your life a little more when they have someone else. Talk to her and let her know you are a little worried and jealous, and ask her to reassure you that everything is going to stay the same, and that you and her are going to remain close. Wouldn't you want her to be happy for you? if it really bothers you, feel free to go do things on your own for reflection and just enjoying your own company, it does good for your soul. Do something new, or start a new hobby to use up more of your free time. You will both be fine, Im a naturally jealous person, and I've grown fine with my parents being with someone else. Good luck, and you'll be fine :)

My mum started dating a while ago and has now married the man she was dating.
I did feel jealous to start with but now the man she is with has turned out to be a really good friend to me.
My advice? Trust her to make the right choice. You have known her for a long time be she has known herself for a lot longer.
Give the man she chooses a chance. It could be the best thing you can ever do. Fair enough, he will never be 'Dad'. but that is most liklely the last thing that he wants. We men know better than to take the place of a real father.

If your mum has spent her life bringing you up to the best of her ability then surely you would be happy for her to be happy? a little jealousy is normal as you have had all her attention. but just cos your mum is with someone doesn't mean she loves you any less

Yeah, let her go for it, unless you really dont like the guy, in which case you should do what you can to jeapordise their plans and make your mum choose between you and him. I know ths wont be a popular answer, but my friends mum got married to a guy that slapped her around, but since her mum was blinded with infactuation, she would tend to take his side over hers. You were there first mate, dont forget that!

You mum is as entitled to a bit of happiness as you are.
I can understand why you might feel and bit jealous and worried, but get over it. If you love her then you should be happy that she's happy.
And it won't affect her feelings for you whatsoever.

You must realise that your mum still loves you but in a different way. She has to think of her future as well when you leave home and make your own way in the world.

This is a tricky one, if it were my mum, I would want to know if he was worthy of her, would he put her before all others and would he treat her children as if they were his own, if the answer is "yes" then I'd give her my blessing, if "No" then I'd try and persuade her to get rid. hope my answer is of some help to you.
