met this lady ttwo years ago and been living with her ever since.. she loves me and vice versa. she's 86 but looks extremely good for her age.. she's very immobile and kind.. she basically treats me like her own! i'm 26! the only problem ihave with her is that she never likes the guys i'm interested in for whatever reasons.. i am now dating a very nice guy who treats me well and yet she makes little snubbish remarks about him... like i wonder why a strong, successful man like that isn't married and many other annoying comments... anyway, yesterday he took me to a movie and asked me if i wanted to accompany him for a weekend in Florida and i said yes! when i told the lady i may be going to florida.. her face turned sour and before i finished she yelled NOOOOO! then she started asking me if i was going to sleep with him and all these other annoying questions! she always says i should find someone who could do things for me and now that i've found she can't stand it! i mean the guy is educated and owns property and is respectful towards me... so whats her problem.. i'm beginning to feel that she's not happy for me.. what do u think? how should i keep her from prying?

she's afraid you'll leave her all alone. Nobody wants to be alone, especially old people...

Well, consider that, at 86, she may have a range of fears about her own future and yours, as well. She sounds quite attached to you -- as you said, even in a maternal sense.
Find a way to reassure her, if you can. My own father is 85, and although he's in great shape, change of any sort is not something he enjoys.
To me, it doesn't sound as if she's unhappy *for you,* but rather unhappy about what your new-found happiness might represent for her.
Good luck.

I accept as true with Been there. Possessiveness and jealousy stem from lack of self assurance in oneself. once you elevate how cool or sensible your male friends are, he in all risk thinks you do no longer see those traits in him which makes him all stormy. Scorpios are patently incredibly distrustful of others, yet once you like him then that should no longer be a situation. i will admit i do unlike him calling you a "buddy-whore". I felt like that became way out of line. in case you have confidence him to hold close out along with his female friends, he ought to grant you an identical freedom. That being suggested, it is your relationship and not mine. it particularly is as much as you. in simple terms be careful, save in mind that having to stroll on eggshells would not circulate properly for a manner forward for a relationship. solid success.
