My boyfriend of 3 years is completely attached to his mum, to the point that he brings her everywhere with us! He constantly calls her when he is with me and it seems that she is his number one priority. He will even put her used sanitary towel in the trash for her! I'm convinced this behaviour is not normal and have tried to speak to him about it but it makes no difference!
I love him very much but I dont know how long I can stand this for! Is this normal or should i end it?

I would say that there is an attachment issue here. I think you need to discuss with him that it is ok to help and care for his mother, but he is overly excentric about it. You need to tell him that you are really having a hard time dealing with this and you are going to have to let him go. It is not heathly for either of you.

Loving one mother is a good thing. I have always said if you find a man who loves and respects his mom, you have a good man. However, this seems a little strange. He takes her sanitary napkins to the trash for her, if she is not physically handicapped, I don't understand why he would be doing these things. Taking her everywhere the two of you go, hmm, that is also a little more than strange behavior. I would seriously wonder what is going on between the two of them. It seems that they have some serious dysfunction going on in this relationship to say the least. Good luck and God bless*

Good points and I agree with you in most aspects except for the fact that you try to say that America did not save every ones' "assess". In both world wars Germany was winning until America's intervention in the conflict in which the war turned around for the Allies. Also without America providing resources (agricultural and manufactured goods) in the post World War era, the world would have been in much worse condition for a lot longer. So again, I agree with most of what you said and I am NOT saying one country is better than the other, but I will not accept the fact that you try to denounce the role that America played in the World Wars.

I can understand that u probably have strong feelings for him, but when the relationship is in this state and his behaviour is bothering u this much, it's time to end it. Some guys are close to their mothers but this is definitely NOT normal and seems like a case of little-boy-not-growing-up syndrome. Stop wasting ur time. U deserve better.

That level of attachment is not normal, but I don't think you'll be able to change it. I agree with a previous poster - run, and don't look back.

No it is not normal. He is too attached to his Mom and that will never change no matter how much you love him It's up to you if you want to be second fiddle to his Mom.
