Today, after a year of living with my boyfriend at our new place, he told me that he wants to sell our house and live in a trailer, so he can be closer to his mom. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after months of planning, my boyfriend told me he's changed his mind and doesn’t want to move with me to where I got a job. Why? He doesn’t want to live that far away from his mother. FML
Today, my 24 year-old boyfriend said that he wanted to move out of our apartment, but also stay in a relationship. He's moving back in with his parents, over two hours away. FML.
Today, my boyfriend of 8 years moved in with two other women. He's spent the past 2 years telling me he can't afford to move out of his parent's house. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I moved into our own house. He proceeded to invite his parents to stay for the week. The same parents we've lived with for the past 5 years. FML
Today, my boyfriend of four years broke up with me because he wanted some independence. He moved back into his parents' house. FML
Today, while I was looking for an apartment for my boyfriend and myself, he asked me how would I feel about his mom moving in together with us. FML
Today, my boyfriend threw a fit because I "still" live with my mother at age 30. I bought her an apartment in my building and hired a live-in nurse because she is senile and permanently bedridden. FML
Today, my boyfriend broke up with me, claiming moving in was a bad idea and he is the type who needs his privacy. It was his idea to move in, he had to convince me. Now we are stuck, under lease together for the next 6 months. FML
Today, I was dropping my new boyfriend off at his house. I'd never been there before, so he was giving me directions as I drove. We passed a small trailer home on the right. Without thinking, I said, "I'm so glad I don't live in a house like that." My boyfriend told me to turn right. FML
Today, my boyfriend of 3 months broke up with me because he is moving. He's only moving 20 minutes away. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Mamas boy.

Is his mom elderly and/or in ill health, such that she needs his help?

Maybe his mom is sick or something that requires him to keep a close eye on her.

That is a horrible thought for the bf.

I honestly don't think it's a tragic thing of his Mom being sick or his Dad passing and it being hard on her if its an fml. I mean as much as my fiancé's Mother drives me absolutely insane I wouldn't be unsympathetic or uncooperative if I thought she needed more help. The fact that he wants to move into a trailer makes it sound like he's just a Mommas boy with an over bearing Mother. I know my future mother in law would be THRILLED if we moved in her back yard. Overbearing mothers...

Hell, I don't see the problem. I mean moving is a pain, I've done cross country before. But you can get a pretty damn nice trailer and a good couple acre lot for half the price of your average house. If they can afford a nice trailer it's really not an FML, other than having to move.

Well looks like it's you or the mom, time for him to grow up

Hey, trailer life is fun, right?

Dump him!!! Me or ur mama. People controlled by their mothers are not ready for relationships.

Just because he wants to be closer to his mom doesn't mean you should dump him

**** you guys saying that he needs to grow up. There's nothing immature or wrong about wanting to be closer to your mother. Call me a mama's girl, I don't care, but my family's way more important to me than romance.

#58: Ok 17 year old. I'm not mocking your age or the fact you love comics and elder scrolls. Because ( although I'm am 26 years of age) I still love comic books and elder scroll as well as a complete nerd. However I'm married now and live not too far from my parents or my wife parents. But distance is good and healthy. You can still be Momma's girl in your case, and still have romance. It's called you still call your mom and have get to gathers. Or do you plan on staying at home your whole life because you value your family so much over romance. Distance ( being that you do not live 2 states away)should not factor in to family value. Also your husband/wife become your new family. As well as starting a new family of on you're own. Of course I hope you know this.

#28 If you were given a choice between your girlfriend and your mother, what would you choose?

63 - Okay, if you're not mocking my age or my likes, then I don't know why you'd bring those things up? I might be seventeen (and a nerd? have no idea what that has to do with anything), but I'm still allowed to have an opinion. Anyway, I wasn't trying to say there's necessarily anything wrong with distance or that you can't keep a balance between family and romance, I'm sorry if that's how I came off. It just seems horrible to tell someone to grow up simply because they want to be close to their mom. There's nothing wrong or childish with wanting to be close to the people you love. I might not have worded my comment correctly, because my only real point was that he shouldn't HAVE to distance himself from his mom to be "mature". And yes, I do plan (or hope) to live as close to my family as possible for my whole life or at least most of it. I fail to see the problem with wanting that.

#74 the problem is you need to grow up. :P Nah, I kid. I'll stop instigating an Internet fight. :P Unless of course you wanna go a round. Cuz I have my tinfoil hat ready.
Cbizzlez 10
Obviously she is not okay with it If she posted it to FML so saying it's not grounds for breaking up is ridiculous

#74 "I'm beyond you're comprehension." Gandalf the White. Holding fast for thumbs down. However hopefully 74 will get it.

28- a family is essentially started with a romance, so to say your family that you already have is more important than continuing on and having family of your own than that is beyond me. You make little sense.

Your boyfriend needs to grow up

Technically speaking, he slowly is.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to be close to your mom. It's cute.
onlychildFTW 34
If it means selling a place to move into a trailer, then yes, it is wrong. Unless the "trailer" is one of those $3,000,000 bus RV's.

So, when are you guys going on jerry springer?

You clearly didn't see where this was going.. Nevermind.

They're in Italy. They'll need to go on Gerolamo Primavera-er.

Is his mom elderly and/or in ill health, such that she needs his help?
foshizzle82 7
I wonder the same thing. Just because a man wants to be closer to his family doesn't make him a mama's boy. It's ridiculous.
Meme1988 18
But the mom could move to be closer to him/he could put his house for rent/his mom may move in/his mom would put her house for rent, and she rents a house nearher son

Just look for a new place close to his moms place, a place nicer then a trailer if hes really set on it..

Does she have a disability? If so, have her move in with you or try to find her a place she can stay so you can continue your life. If not? He needs to grow up.

From the sounds of it, OP wasn't happy about any part of the mom ordeal.... jmo
laurenlovesjb 20
Wow he has big dreams. I'm sorry OP, maybe you can convince him to get a smaller house/townhouse that's still close to his mom and not a trailer? I hope you can work things out!
iiTzNeeNerz 26
It's not about moving into a trailer or finding somewhere nicer to live. Look at the big picture.

Every time you comment about something you are always going to get thumbed down!! lol
bestnameright 14
If it's a big deal for you just tell him you really feel comfortable where you are and don't want to move to be closer to his mom. Oh and I have to try and make a pun so, "guess you're trailing behind him in the relationship!" (Insert fake laugh)
loserboii 11
He's lying. His mother forced him to do that. Either that or she's still breast feeding him.
Welshite 40
Because an adult male breastfeeding makes the most sense, and therefore must be the reason. Yeah...
gracehi 33
Oh, my dear Welshite. Why would you take that seriously?
