Today, I told my mom that my boyfriend, who I've been living with for a year, and I were moving to another state at the end of the month. I told her in a restaurant, over lunch, where she then just got up and left me there without saying a word. FML

I didn't have enough room to elaborate on my post. it was spur of the moment on my part too. boyfriend is in the oilfield and they needed him up and moved ASAP. so she new a week after I knew. I just needed a week for it to set in.

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Maybe she wanted more than 2 weeks notice that you were leaving.

That changes my opinion a little! We're a military family, so I understand short notice. Doesnt make it any easier for your mom to process though... Especially if you havent discussed marriage with him your mom may be worried about you leaving to follow a boy you have no commitment with. Hopefully it all works out!!

Your mom loves you so much. The thought of you going away breaks her heart.

I'm guessing she didn't know how to react.

Wow...that sucks she just left but it's your fault for only giving her two weeks notice that you were leaving.

She has a broken heart. It'll be ok.

If OP has the right to move, then her mother has the right to walk out from a public place instead of making a scene. Maybe she got emotional and didn't want to cry in front of everyone. Breaking news like that to your mother in a public place maybe wasn't the best choice. Give her a day or two, OP.

Let her get mad. You've been living out of her house for a year now, you have every right to move out of state. Regardless of her opinion on it.
