i understand respecting the parents and all, but if a girl's not willing to put YOU first, then don't accept being second...

. It is easy however for the daughter to tell her mom she will have her bf sleep over as much as he/she wants. 



Everyone saying this is either stupid, skanky, or raised by skanks.

What daughter would tell Hey old fashioned Southern parents "quit coming over to my house to be with me. I'm trying to frick guys and have adult sleepovers"

She should call one the daughter has a serious boyfriend though.

How long yall been dating? It's very possible that the mom doesn't like or trust you. Do you talk to her? Make her feel her daughter is loved and safe?

How on Earth is it skanky to expect a 28 YEAR OLD WOMAN to have a sex life?

PS. If you have to micromanage your daughter's life at 28, you either think she's an idiot or you've done a shitty job as a parent. This mother is a selfish, controlling cockblocker if you ask me.

Good women are hard to find, she just cares about her daughter. If you marry her one day, she will be just as protective over your kids....put a ring on it

Her mom will stop coming over randomly once she walks in on you having sex with her daughter and her daughter reacts appropriately (i.e. telling her mother to get the frick out of her house). That should bring the matter to a head nicely.

Didn't read the whole thread so I apologize if it's been said already. But it doesn't sound to me like the mother has that much control over your girlfriend.

Maybe have a conversation with her, but it seems to me that she just wants to avoid conflict with her mother over this issue. And that's understandable. Especially if it's no problem for her to stay at your place.

People have different family dynamics, and if you can't adapt to her's, then it probably won't last.

OP, be careful.

There may be some history of which you are unaware, some money issues (kids take money from parents and think it is a gift when it is really a purchase of power), an illness, etc. They could also just be crazy, have a different family dynamic, or be from another culture (this should be abvious to you, just not me).

Your best bet is not to institute abrupt change. Discuss the matter purely on an informational level (So tell me more about your parents, you growing up, etc.). Dobthe same.

If the chick is worth the time, slow play, find what is lurking beneath the surface, navigate accordingly.

If not, don't.

OP, if you're waiting for the perfect situation with any girl, you might as well just hang it up. It doesn't exist. If you really like the girl, handle it like an adult, ask her to do the same, and continue in the relationship.

Better put a ring on it. Just go along with the flow, appease her parents for now. You don't want them dogging you like they likely did the other suitors before you.

When momma decides you're no good, you're done for.

Sounds like a typical Baptist family, I went through a couple of these down in GA when I lived there, sheltered girls (who want to have some fun) but feel like they need to make parents happy. Just make sure she knows you are your own person and that you make your own decisions not someone else. If she doesn't take the hint ditch her...

If I would have left my wife because of her strict mom I would have never been married to her for 13 awesome years. Why don't you man the frick up and talk to your girlfriend like a big boy.
