Is it considered normal for a 45 year old man to speak with his mother 2-3 times per day every day.?

Question

We have 2 teenage girls, who do not call us, as parents that many times per day.

Answer 1

No. it isnt normal. He sounds like a mama's boy.

Answer 2

I'm thinking no! Unless she's ill or something and he's concerned about her being alone. Some special circumstance like that. My husband's 47, we've been married over 23 years, I'd say he is close to his mother....but never, EVER has he called he 2 or 3xs in a day. Twice a week, usually. My brother's 43, also close to our Mother, he is her only son and our Father died over 30 years ago, so they're very close and he has NEVER called her 2-3xs per day. My Mom would think he was crazy! He probably calls her once every other day, maybe every three days, something like that. I think this man you're speaking of needs a life beyond his mommy....where does he find the time? Doesn't he have other obligations in his day to day life?
Good luck with that one!

Answer 3

Unless she is alone and he is worried about her for some real reason, then NO, it is NOT normal. What is he...a MOMMA's BOY? Maybe he is still breast feeding, because something here isn't quite right. What might be normal would be to speak to her maybe once a week, at most! At 45, it would be normal for them to both have their own separate and independent lives. Question is...what is it that is prompting him to continue this type of frequency in communicating with her? But whatever it is, it's also probably beyond your control.

Answer 4

as quickly as, perchance yet 5?! i might say perchance as quickly as a week or each 2 weeks is general. Is she the single calling him or any incorrect way around? the two way it does not sound wholesome- if he's asking her it appears like he's in simple terms too insecure to determine issues out on his very own & desires her approval. If she's calling him it appears like she desires to administration her son and he's not putting a supply as much as that which isn't reliable the two. have you ever mentioned something to him approximately it? His reaction could supply you a concept of what the priority is.

Answer 5

sounds different to say the least, but first you have to define "normal". Personally, I think this is a little much, but it depends on the circumstances, there might be a good reason for it. What are the calls about and how long has this been going on. Maybe mother is worried about losing her son.

Answer 6

It's a little odd. Does she have "issues" that requires his constant contact, or does he just like to talk to her? Maybe suggest he cut it back to 2-3 times per week.

Answer 7

There's nothing wrong with it, if he enjoys talking to his mother that much and she's not annoyed by it AND it's not weird conversations everytime they talk then it's fine. If either is intruding on the others lives on purpose as a result of these conversations then whoever is prompting these conversations needs to lay off. In other words... it's a bit much, but as long as neither of them care then you shouldn't either.

Answer 8

It is if he is a mommas boy.

If you two have teenagers, then it's way too late for this to matter. He is what he is and isn't going to change. For all these years you have put up with it and NOW you want him to change? If you didn't like him being a mommas boy, you shouldn't have married him to begin with. Too late now.

Answer 9

Personally, I think it's sweet. I think its a good quality for a guy to be close with his mom. Average, probably not. Sweet and attractive? To me, yes. Just as long and every detail of a relationship isnt told.

Answer 10

No that is not normal! One of them or maybe both of them obviously have separation issues! If my husband talked on the phone to anyone that much not just his mom, but to anyone, it would drive me plum crazy! How would he feel if you done that?
