Today, my boyfriend stormed out after I suggested to him that his relationship with his mother is maybe a little weird. Apparently having regular, hour-long phone discussions about your penis is a perfectly normal thing for a 23-year-old to have with his mother. FML

My ex told me his mother would sometimes go into the bathroom where he`s taking a shower to fill up the waching machine or whatever else she needs to do in there.. he didn`t see a problem with his own mother walking in on him butt-naked. I didn`t need a mommy`s boy.

It's sad to see these many people with such judgmental thoughts, as well as such immature ones. Just because a man has had a conversation with his mother about his penis doesn't mean that there is an incestuous relationship. It just means that he was raised by a good family. That he had a good home life and has always felt as though he could trust his mother.

Come on, all these people telling her to break it off because of something like this? I don't know about his family life, but not everyone is blessed with two parents, sometimes there is no Dad to ask, I should know, my mother raised my brother, sister, and I on her own with no contact what so ever from "Dad". His mother could also be a nurse, or some sort of medical professional, my point being there's too few things said here to tell her to break it off and what not. Also, if you're a grown ass man, and you were raised by a single mother, it would explain his attachment to her and ability to talk to her as such, be mindful, parents are a matching set but not everyone's set is complete. I, for one, feel completely comfortable asking my mother about something that might have me worried etc, simply put if you're old enough to have an actual adult relationship, embarrassment of topics such as genitals, shows how immature you are. On a side note, if the conversation was sexually charged, run like the wind, bullseye!

you sure thats his mother hahahahaha

Haha. Why were you with him in the first place then.

My mother and I talk about sex a good often. She raised me to be very comfortable on the topic, I understand that some find it awkward to talk to them about. All depends on how you were brought up OP.

It's good that they have a close relationship but that's just... odd to me. You'll never catch me discussing my periods with my father. *shudder*

My (now ex) boyfriend's mom had this creepy relationship with this high school kid that she actually wrote and published books about. If I ever even commented on the fact that it was weird or asked how it affected the family (the younger kids were completely neglected) he would flip out. So I totally get you OP, best of luck:)

I don't really see the problem.. Its his mother! She spent years changing his diapers and cleaning his ass! Why cant he have a conversation with her about his penis?
