i'm having problems with my boyfriends overbearing grmotherto the point that she invites his ex over almost daily he's addressed this with her but she continues to do it, now i dont visit or call at all. his mother is deceased and i'm tired of this meddling old woman in our life she tells him not to stay overnight at my place and always is telling him negative things this is sickening to the point that he hardly visists her i only want us all to try and get along but it is becoming unbearable to deal with it this lady is 81 yrs old and should be knitting somewhere instead of gambling at the casino every weekend. i love this man very much but some things will try even the most strong any suggestions out there.......

Your BF needs to move out of her house.
As long as he is living there, she will be pulling all sorts of squirrel stunts. She will manipulate him just because she can, and because she doesn't have control over any other aspect of her life. Expect her to pull out the stops, too. Emotional blackmail... dangling her will in front of him... you name it.
The thing is, if you and he did manage to take the relationship into marriage, you will be dealing with her more than ever. She probably isn't very far from having to be put into a nursing home. The only difference is that you would have more leverage as a wife because you wouldn't be going anywhere.
She probably needs to have her meds checked over... there are a couple that promote addictive behaviors such as gambling. There is also the possibility of the onset of dementia.
