This subject sounds like a whole other show.
Quote From: lalalalalaok so what happens when you 24 yrs old and want to move out and have your own life but your mother wont let you??
my parents divorced a few yrs ago and since then my mom has leaned on me as if i was her husband, i finally got an apt with out her knowing and just told her one day that i was moving out then she refused to speak to me for 3 months! i have a full time job and pay all my own bills i have a college degree and no criminal record, no kids, no evidence of bad decisions in the past, i hardly even drink but still she makes me feel like im a bad person for "not being there to take care of her" the problem with being there is that i cannot date from there because she feels as though i am "cheating" on her if i have a boyfriend I'm no expert, but your mother sounds like a very troubled woman. If she isn't willing to get help by joining some kind of support group or go to counseling, you have to do the best you can to deal with her on your own terms. Something in her mind is topsy-turvey. I wish you the best and hope that you can live a normal life. You may just have to "divorce" yourself from her, so to speak. That's sad but it's a survival tactic.
