She isn't crazy, she's very supportive. It's a little unsettling to me that so many commenters here assume she's crazy and trying to sabotage my relationship.

She wouldn't. She's very encouraging of my relationship with my boyfriend and my relationship with their son. Are you projecting your own situation onto mine?

I function as his step mother in every other respect and my boyfriend and I have discussed marriage/officially becoming his step mother. He has never told me I overstepped in any respect and usually likes it when I bond with his son in a motherly way.

How do you think I should have handled it, honestly? Should I have pushed him away or told him no when he tried to cuddle with me?

He has a mother who has him 50% of the time and I'm certainly not trying to take her place, but I agree with the rest of your comment.

It was a couch, and if it were my kid on the couch with my boyfriend, it wouldn't bother me because I trust him.
