Ever stop to think that maybe the OP's bf was talkin to his mom about how to break up with her in the least hurtful way? Most guys dnt have close female friends that they open up to so they ask their mother

Sometimes you don't know someone is in earshot. Like if they just get home and you don't hear them come in over the sound of the dishwasher. That's just one example.

Sounds like a mumma's boy. Imagine if you got married to him.. He wouldn't be able to make his own mind up about anything and you'd come in second best.. You dodged a bullet there OP.

#88 Nowhere in the FML did it say that it was his mom's idea to break up with OP. Chances are he just didn't know how to go about doing it. I'll be 21 in a few months and I still ask my mom how I should phrase things to people, so I can be as polite as possible.

I never said it was his mothers idea. But after re-reading my comment, I sound like an ass... My apologies.
