She Feels Like Her Boyfriend Has A Secret Relationship With Her Mom, But She Isn’t Sure If She’s Just Crazy For Thinking This
This 24-year-old woman has been dating her boyfriend, who is also 24, for 9 years. And since the housing market is crazy right now, they have been living with her parents.
Throughout her relationship, though, she admitted to always feeling weird about her boyfriend’s relationship with her 47-year-old mom.
The suspicions started way back at the beginning of their relationship, too, when her boyfriend would text her mom just as much as they spoke.
Plus, the weirdest part was that her boyfriend would have full-on deep conversations with her mom, whereas he would just have “little conversations” with her.
And what made it even stranger was that her boyfriend would always delete his texts with her mom. But, when she asked about that, her boyfriend just claimed that he didn’t want his parents looking at his conversations. So, he deleted them all.
“But our messages were still there? It was just people he didn’t want me to read that were gone. But if someone got on his phone, wouldn’t they go to our messages first?” she wondered.
That’s why she eventually became pretty curious and decided to check her mom’s phone instead. At that point, she discovered that her boyfriend and mom had been talking about their feelings and interests and even said, “I L-word you” to each other.
She asked her boyfriend what that phrase meant, too. Although he just claimed that he did not want to say “I love you” to anyone else but her.
Quite frankly, though, she thought that having a specific “inside” phrase almost made the messages even more meaningful. And she really just could not understand why her boyfriend was deleting everything.

Anyway, as time went on, it became clearer and clearer that her boyfriend and mom were constantly talking– and about much deeper things than she was ever let in on.
For instance, she once asked her boyfriend if he was doing okay, and he said yes. Yet, about 10 minutes later, her mom approached her and claimed she needed to talk to her boyfriend because he was seriously down.
So, she did ask her boyfriend again, but he just reassured her he was fine. Then, her mom revealed their text messages, and she watched as her boyfriend poured his feelings out to her mom; meanwhile, he was just texting her simple things and calling her “baby.”
This pushed her to ask her boyfriend why he was so open with her mom. But his only reasoning was that his mom was an adult, and he felt like he could trust her.
Still, she started to just push her feelings aside because she honestly thought she was crazy, just like her boyfriend and mom were claiming.
One day, however, it seemed like her dad was also starting to catch on to her boyfriend and mom’s weird relationship.
It all began after her mom fell asleep on the couch while her boyfriend was over. After he eventually left, her dad actually blew up and claimed that her boyfriend had been “dreamily” watching her mom sleep.
“It started to become a big thing, and everyone on my mom’s side thought there was something going on because of my dad and how close they [her boyfriend and mom] were,” she recalled.
“My parents would fight all the time over it. I just kept my mouth shut.”
Another time, she and her boyfriend went on a road trip vacation with her parents, and things got super weird in the car. At one point, the song “Peacock” by Katy Perry came on the radio, and her mom sent her boyfriend a bizarre text that read, “Are you brave enough to let me see your peacock?”
Apparently, her boyfriend just laughed and whispered, “Someone’s happy.” Still, at the time, she just brushed that whole incident off!
“But my God, thinking back on it now, I wish I didn’t. My boyfriend doesn’t remember this and thinks I’m crazy,” she said.
Finally, one week after she and her boyfriend welcomed their baby into the world, she realized something fishy was going on in the pantry.
At the time, she and her boyfriend were at home with her mom. And while she was in the living room, sitting with her sleeping baby, her boyfriend walked into the pantry shortly after her mom headed into the kitchen.
Now, she didn’t think anything of this at first. But then, she heard her mom start to whisper and giggle, which made her really suspicious.
She wound up getting up from the couch as slowly as she could. That way, her boyfriend and mom wouldn’t hear her approach.
But, at the last second, the floor made a creaking noise, and it sounded as though her boyfriend and mom had moved away from each other.
Then, all of a sudden, her mom was standing right by the door when she approached the kitchen and weirdly asked her, “What are you doing up?”
Her boyfriend was standing weird, too– bent over with his legs crossed– as though he was hiding something. Yet, all he asked her was, “What are you doing?”
She couldn’t figure out why both her boyfriend and mom were asking her that. After all, she was in her own house.
So, once her mom left, she asked her boyfriend what the heck was going on. But he swore he was just looking for food and that his stomach hurt.
“And once again, I brushed it off because I thought it was my postpartum brain like he was telling me,” she revealed.
Now, however, her boyfriend has never stopped deleting his messages with her mom. And that’s left her wondering whether her boyfriend and mom were once involved with each other, still are, or if she is just crazy.
Does it sound like she is really crazy, or is there something weird going on between her boyfriend and her mom? How would you feel about all of these strange incidents? How can she go about addressing the elephant in the room?
