She Invited Her Boyfriend’s Mom To His Birthday Party, So He Broke Up With Her
This woman has been dating her boyfriend for two years. Unfortunately, he just broke up with her because she didn’t respect his boundaries. Recently, she threw her boyfriend a birthday party, and he requested that she not invite his mother.
She didn’t listen and invited her anyway, which caused her boyfriend to dump her. Sadly, her boyfriend’s mother walked out on him and his father three years ago.
After no communication for all of these years, his mother randomly showed up at his house several weeks ago.
“At that time, I was the only one at his house (he and his dad were out grocery shopping). I met her, and she told me who she was. She cried and said how guilty she was to leave her son and husband for another man,” she said.
Apparently, her boyfriend’s mother came over to tell him how sorry she was for abandoning him. In the middle of this conversation, her boyfriend and his father came back to the house.
Right when her boyfriend saw his mother, he was enraged and screamed at his mother until she walked out of the house while on the verge of tears.
She and her boyfriend’s mother continued communicating after the ordeal. As they talked, she believed that his mother truly felt remorseful for her past decisions. His mother told her that she wanted the opportunity to ask for forgiveness from her son.
“So, I got emotional, and I invited her. Maybe I thought he could get closure, and, you know, it’s up to him if he wants to accept her apology. I did this because I never met my mom,” she explained.
Tragically, her mother passed away while giving birth to her, and she thinks this is part of why she felt so motivated to help her boyfriend’s mother.

In her view, it’s important for people to have a mother in their lives. Her goal was to assist in bringing her boyfriend and his mother back together so that they could maybe one day have a relationship again.
When her boyfriend found out that she’d invited his mother to his birthday party, he was furious, telling her that she had overstepped the clear boundaries he had set. Then, he told her that it wasn’t her place to decide whether or not to invite his mother to his party.
“He said, ‘You can pack your things and get out.’ Those were his words. I said sorry, but he’s not talking to me. I always ruin everything,” she shared.
Since the fight, she hasn’t been able to stop crying hysterically, acknowledging that she was wrong.
She is deeply in love with her boyfriend, but she doesn’t know what she can do to make him forgive her or take her back.
In the meantime, she accepts that he needs space to heal, and she’s holding onto hope that he will reach out to her one day.
