Should have walked out and told him that YOU could do better, and dumped his ass.

To think optimistically, it could have just been one of those cases where he as a crotchety old grandma, and it's just easier to pretend to agree with her and placate her, rather than deal with it. Old people can be very stuck and stubborn, and sometimes they'll stick by whatever they said come hell or high water. Maybe he was saying it more as a, "Yes, grandma, I know *eye roll*"

I wouldn't dump him he's probably the best you can get.

My boyfriend's grandma thought we were meant for each other, which she's never said about him with any of his exes.
