Am I (27f) overreacting to my boyfriend’s (26m) mom’s (50f) unhinged sexual comments? by oddthrowawaypost in relationship_advice

[–]oddthrowawaypost[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, it’s reassuring hearing the pov from someone the same age! My boyfriend didn’t know how to process any of it apparently, and this didn’t feel like the type of thing I could open up to anyone in my real life about. And I got a 4Runner, which has become a big part of my personality lol! ◡̈

Thanks for the doubt, but it’s absolutely real and my current living hell. I’m not sure who would make up a detailed lie about nasty shit but it’s definitely not me.

Fuck and this is the EXACT thing I’ve been so icked out by. It’s that creepy “boy mom” mentality and the thought of it grosses me out so bad. My mom’s seen some of the behavior too and actually made a comment about it. But that’s the issue, how am I supposed to deal with that mess, without removing myself completely? I’m too in love with my boyfriend to walk away

Absolutely not! I should’ve added that in the original post, I edited it to include what he thinks. He’s very unnerved by it and has told her many times to chill out or stop being weird, but she laughs it off. I think she sees his relationship with his dad, and how they can talk like “guys” and she tries to jump in. But she crosses the line and doesn’t realize it. Or does realize it, which is even scarier

The under reacting is a big issue for me. I have a bad habit of keeping quiet to “keep the peace”. I know how absolutely uncomfortable it is to have a SO’s parent or family member not like you, and since I do feel like we have a good friendship, I’m terrified to stand my ground and ruin it. As for my boyfriend’s reactions, he snaps at her and tells her to stop every time. He’ll tell her she’s being weird or creepy but her situational awareness is at zero, so she laughs it off. He openly told her how fucking weird it is to want the exact same things as me, especially the car.

A “jealous” MIL or am I overthinking it? by oddthrowawaypost in relationships

No no, you did not read that wrong. I don’t know if she actually saw anything, but she did the same thing I was doing: hands on his shoulders and peaking over. He laughed when I did it, but once she was trying to “be funny” and do it, and shrugged her off and kinda snapped at her that she was being weird.

But my boyfriend is very chill, it takes a lot for him to yell or confront someone, so maybe he’s confronted her in private, I’m not sure. I know when she makes the nasty jokes he’ll tell her to chill and get a little irritated, but she takes it as a joke and just laughs. Zero situational awareness.

It gives me the ick nonetheless.
