Closet Conversations – How to Handle a Partner Who Is a “Mama’s Boy”
Guest on line: Mathawe Matsapola -Seasoned Journalist & Editor/Entrepreneur/Certified Life Coach and COMENSA member/ Speaker/.
Being married to a mama's boy isn't always a bad thing. A man who is close to his mother is not a mama's boy in a negative way. In fact, research has shown that boys and men who have strong relationships with their mothers are mentally healthier, more empathetic, and have better relationships with women.
A man who seems to be unhealthily attached to his mother, however, might be more of a problem. This is particularly if he can't seem to function without her.
Boundary problems, dependence, and enmeshment can be harmful to a relationship or marriage. It is important to be able to distinguish between normal and unhealthy attachments and learn how to establish healthy boundaries.
