What would you do if?

Your bf's mum is interferring with your relationship in the sense that she doesnt allow her son to be out late or stay away from home(we both currently live at home atm) which leads to him lying to her and the two of them having huge rows and she has all of a sudden banned you from her house as she thinks you're going to break her son's heart. He can't currently come to my house nor is he able to move out of home and can't afford to be spending money all the time to see me ie hotels etc so what would you do?

Tell your boyfriend to grow up, stop lying to his mother then get him to actually talk to her about her fears rather then sneaking around thus fuelling her contempt for you. Thats what i would do anyway

Well he is grown up, and his mum is v old fashioned and if he does tell her the truth she still has a go but obviously lying isnt good either. I'm annoyed cos if i walked away she'd been proven right but I dont think either of us should have to put up with the hassle just cos shes sooo protective of her kids.

Well it wasn't a great solution that you lied in the first place but that's a moot point.

Why can't he come to your house? His mother can't keep him at home 24/7 can she? How would she know if he came to your house? You're both legally adults, his mother can't control where he goes and who he sees anyway. So that's what's confusing me.

But either way, I think, like everyone else, that your bf really should talk to his mother and try to make her understand. And seeing her POV might help, why she's so against you in the first place (or is it just him have a gf in general?).

So maybe one of you should move out as your old enough. And if he cant tell his mother that its his life at 20 i dont hold much hope for your relationship

He does tell his mother over an over again that she cant tell him what to do and she still has a go but due to a past relationship he isnt in a good financial position to move just yet.

I didnt lie, Ive not done anything, and he cant currently come to mine as its being refurnished and the dust would affect him but after that i have no probs with him being here but im sure his mum would.

He has spoken to his mum a lot and shes very opinionated and wont see other ppls point of view, and its not something ive personally done for her to be like that, its gf's in general.
