Wow, I'm impressed, there's actually been solid advice in here mixed in with awful advice. Here's more advice:

She sounds like she has a very codependent relationship with an undermatured mother figure, more of a sister than a mom. You should respect this but approach it with caution, don't condone or condemn it. She's still maturing as an adult because her adult role model hasn't fully matured yet. You have an opportunity to help in this maturing process and be a part of her becoming an independent and mature woman. So you should totally put a baby in her, that should fix shite.

what does the Mom look like? She's very likely going to wind up looking like her. But the emotional angle is just going to be hit or miss so I wouldn't worry about that too much.

are you dating my ex?

Eta: further details, I bailed for these reasons. She was way too immature and spoiled by her mother. She acted like her mom was a pita to her, but she carried every one of the same traits as her mom.

Listen to someone who is probably at least a couple of decades older then you and seen many women.

In this case pull your dick out of her and run as fricking fast as you can. There will be others who won't make your life as miserable. Trust me.

The fact that her mom is a train wreck and she considers her mom her best friend is concerning



You tend to become close friends with people like you.

There are a lot of factors that go into this, but in my experience - yes. And, markedly so after the wedding.

money problems- this is your issue not so much the emotional aspect.

If you are thinking long term, your biggest issue is your future mother in laws economic viability. If she is loaded monetarily from the divorce, death of husband or her own economic independence you are good to go. If she is in debt, jobless, disabled etc etc. then anticipate to one day having to subsidize her/ getting in arguments about subsidizing her, or just having her move in with you.

Best of luck.

Yes, very concerned. It is not a myth but don't ever try to convince your gf of this fact. Never even suggest that she is acting like her Mother, especially if she has issues with mom.

I would enjoy the ride but not get too attached. Sounds like a future of high drama and misery

That's a tough one. You never know what is going on with her mom. She could be facing some serious challenges in her life that you know nothing about, which could be causing her to be not like herself. A death of a loved one, menopause, loss of a job, infidelity. You just never know. I'd keep your feet and mind firmly planted in the relationship between you and your girlfriend without letting outside things (like her mom's mental state) interfere with that.

What the hell is wrong with that? Only time I get any action is when my wife gets drunk. If she got drunk every nite, I'd be a lot happier.
