Mommy issues

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

Hey, at least she's not coming over and personally inspecting it for an hour

That's just a super level of crazy and weird. The most I talk to my parents is like 5-10 minutes a day. Good god, that's not normal, at all. Run.

I don't think it's the length of the conversation that's weird. It's the topic of the conversation that's weird. It's perfectly normal to have long conversations with your parents. Just not about your genitals.

Regular, hour-long conversations with mom? Someone's got the apron strings tied a bit too tightly. That they're about his penis is creepy beyond belief. Wonder what Freud would say about that.

maybe, chinaski, but not every day, no matter what the topic is.

True-- not everyday, but I live in a different city than my parents and have been known to talk to my mom for an hour or so at a time (about normal things). And when I'm home, I spend a lot of time with them. It also helps that I'm an adult who has lived away from home for 20 years. I definitely didn't talk to them this much when I was a teen. Somehow they got more tolerable the older I got and further away I moved :)

How is this weird when it's his mom? She kinda birthed him and had to change him...

The question is, how ISN'T this weird when it's his mum?

Yes, she birthed him 23 years ago and changed him as a baby because that babies need to be taken care of, not to inspect his penis. Since then he's become an ADULT, and this kind of conversation with a parent is not needed or normal.

So he feels comfortable talking to his mom about his junk. She's not even seeing it. They're just talking about it. Not that big of a deal.

Hey, I mean if you're partial to talking about the intricacies of your genitalia for large amounts of time with your parents then more power to you! Just know that everyone isn't the same.

I guess you would have hour long conversations with your dad about your vaginal discharge?

What if his moms a doctor or something?

I have a feeling he wasn't talking about his rod for that whole hour.

unless the boyfriend has a medical issue or is trans, it's not right.

What's weird is that he has enough material to carry on several hours of conversations regarding his penis. Seems unlikely. The more likely scenario here is that he likes to speak to his mother but whining about that isn't exactly FML worthy, now is it? Throw in a dick and suddenly it's FML gold. Suck it up. If you don't like the fact he has a comfortable relationship with his mother, do him a favour and leave.

No, he only dates his mother.

Oedipus Complex if I ever heard of one.

Ovid's Withering - Oedipus Complex. Give it a listen. May not be your cup of tea musically, but lyrically very applicable to this situation.

yeah because breaking up is always the answer.

Well if he's talking to his mother about his penis there's obviously something wrong there. It could be insecurity or just something weird. Who knows what could be next. I would break up with him...

It's always the answer on fml. I swear I see it at least once on every post. Got a cactus thrown at your head? Break up with your boyfriend!

What if he was the one who threw the cactus?

Bad example there. If my boyfriend threw a cactus at my head, I'd leave him in an instant.

She birthed every bit of his body. You don't grow out of being your mothers child. 23 months old, or 23 years old, still the same parts as before.

there's gotta be an issue if a 23 year old has the same Penis as a 23month old o.O

Well, it's still the SAME penis. I'd didn't swap out or anything.
