My husband is a "mamma's boy" and I can't stand it anymore?

boxmaker40

I was in a similar situation years ago. His mother lived with us, and I did everything for over a year to make his mother and all of us feel comfortable and so on. My boyfriends name was Michael and everything he wanted to do had to be ok'd with his mom. When he came home from work at night he would get a bath, and his mother would be in the bathroom cleaning his back. Many other things happened, and I realized he had a strange relationship with his mother.
There didn't seem to be a possible way for us to live with her.
She didn't really care if her son was happy, she just wanted what she wanted. Once a mamma's boy always a mamma's boy.
I left my boyfriend cause I felt like he had a weird relationship with his mom. Being close to your mother is one thing, but we move on and have relationships with other people and kids and so on. Those guys
that are mamma's boys are not really men you can ever rely on,
unless your his mother.

Nope.....you cant change a person only help them.....sounds like you want to change him not help.

Yes, after momma is in her coffin.

VaNiLLa La Loveâ„¢

No. But take it as a good thing because mama's boys usually treat their wives as good as they do their mom. Yes, it can be annoying but hang in there.

No. If you don't like mamma's boys, why on earth did you marry one?

LOL, I don't think there's really a cure :], but maybe you could talk to him about something, spending more time with him..etc.

stactai

Uhh...doesn't sound like you want to put in much effort to change the relationship.

Maybe you don't help him out so he turns to his mom.

Just a thought.

If you want to cure him show him he is a mama's boy somehow
hell get determined and change his ways.

Steph

I'm with a mama's boy myself... There's definitely no cure.

sharon s

I have never heard of one, I stayed away from guys like that.

Nicole

nope once a mommas boy always a mommas boy...no cure for it
I see it every day my two brothers are mommas boys and it is sickining

spike_mae

yahh ...

nunya ya right

Show your true love to him..
Agree with him for her mother's right decisions
Disagree with what is not right which MIL says for you two
Get rid of hatred feelings and work with your MIL.
Be part of family the way all are living in that home
I think this is human relationhsip problem.. You need to work on it without hard feelings and make your husband understand who is good for him..

If you cant not than make him feel you are not happy with this situation and keep a distance and make him realize your importance in his life.. Hit the real issues and just go straight on that..

Or else follow what all have to say on that...

cure for being a mamma's boys ? NOPE ! why ? they're afraid of mistakes and blames of their faults , the best thing to do is ask his mom what is her son wants and donts if you can do the same thing his mom did then GREAT you saved your family into parting ways .

You picked him.

If it is time and attention devoted to you that is missing, when his mother dies you will be her replacement.

His LadyBug

oh man.. I use to date one and it was awful! he would listen to her instead of me.. I don't believe there is a cure.. just wait for the old bat to die so you can have your man to yourself. I know that sounds harsh but I know your pain.. good luck. I'm so glad that my hubby isn't a mama's boy.

JaneDoe

no cure for that if there's one...I need one ASAP lol my husband is mommas boy too

KellyR

no i have one too. it drives me crazy too. for me it takes alot of his masculinity and attractiveness away. i want a manly man who can stand on his own two feet that doesnt needs mommy's approval. i just tell my husband how much it bother's me and also make him embarrassed for it. when my husband acts like a momma's boy i start referring to her as "his mommy" and tell him how unattractive it is. its working now, my husband's manned up alot. but for my husband he likes to be really masculine and likes to act like the man of the house. and he cant do that if he needs his mommy

James

talk to your husband about this

roadtrain02

Don't worry you are not alone on that question, my female parnter is the same.
I don't really have a answer as my partner and I fight about her Mother all the time.
I guess you have to be like me and just put up with it. I'd leave my partner, but we have 4 kids.
Either just ignore it and do your own thing or leave him.

Shannon

Someone needs to tell him no one no one else comes before your wife. His mother doesn't take care of him anymore.
Does he have any married brothers that aren't mamma's boys? Otherwise try (his) Dad.

It can't come from you/your family.

Chiku

no, no cure, sorry! Sounds like in your frustration you are ready to do anything! Maybe look at it differently.. he has a good relationship with him mother. It may help you feel less irritated

love potion

well talk to him.
If you're not on good terms with your mother-in-law, it wouldn't be as good to talk to her about it.
Talk to your husband and tell him you feel uncomfortable. Hopefully, you guys come on good terms

R. M

There is a cure - but you must not date girlie-men anymore.
