My boyfriend's mom is manipulating and guilt tripping him into trying to break up with me and keep him from moving in with me.

Grammaretto I bought left handed scissors.
They were hard to find then - much easier now.

Are you older than your boyfriend mikuchan? If so, perhaps that’s what’s worrying his mother, even though you get on well with each other.

Allira, I sort of knew that caca meant excrement. I looked up the etymology of 'cack' and the word has a centuries-old history of meaning excrement. I suppose when outside privies were the rule with no running water it's sort of hygienic to reserve the left hand for use in the privy.
So 'cack handed' is an insult'.

It's not a word I've heard since I was young so I probably never thought of it again!

And I know I'm cack-handed.
Or cack-footed or both.

Cack means s**t? I learn something every day.

Miku, it sounds like he is trying to get out, if he really cared he would choose you. Just walk and don't look back,

A 26 year old being supported by his mother, there’s something wrong there.There can’t be many 26 year old men who actually want to live with their mothers. Nothing will change look for a man, walk away.

Excuses excuses! Avoid like the plague. He is a mummy's boy who is unlikely to cut the apron strings at this age and you will end up being riled by her too.

Ruled not riled but probably that too

AI BOT alert ‼️

How old is this man to be manipulated by his mother, sorry but he sounds like a weak mummy’s boy, I fear this will end in disaster and you getting hurt I would dump him and look for a real man

Another old thread yawn...

I can never be bothered reading novellas.

Why is his Mum his financial support?

Why isn't a 26 yr old working and earning enough to support himself? Would he not have to share rent/ food/bills etc with you?

Are you planning to support him financially if/when the bank of mum runs dry?

Why is he still financially dependent on his mother at the age of 26? That alone should be a red light for you. I also agree with others here that a few months is far to early to be thinking of moving in together, you barely know each other.

No man who cannot walk away from his mother, when he finds hes true love is not worth wasting 5 minutes with.

If he WANTS TO Move in with you he will do it regardless

If he don't he will listen to his Mother

It's as simple as that

Don't chasww sit back and observe

What's meant for. Will NOT pass you

Give yourself PEACE In all the Chaos

There's been no replays from this poster and Mum.was spelt the American way. Mom hmmm

Does anyone else think something fishy here ???

You could say to him

" Don't worry about money, darling. You don't need to be financially supported by your Mum. I have a job and earn enough money to keep both of us . I will happily pay all the bills, do your washing, cook all your meals and clean. Just like she does. You never know, she might be quite glad of the break".

I lived in Birmingham for 2 years in the 1960's and never heard anyone saying mom.
DS is in Nottingham. I'll ask him.

But my DM was a mummy not a mum.
I'm a mum.

I'm from Nottingham, and people here say "Mam"

Didn’t we establish back in April - or more or less come to a conclusion - that this was a bit of a yarn?
Why give it the oxygen of publicity now just because it has been revived by a (deleted) spammer?
