If I may??? Piggy back off Que's thread....any Momma Boys in Da' House???

[sistuhchey]

Que, fathers defintely have an impact on some ladies relationships.......But what about you men and your mom???

When choosing a mate do you think of or about your mom, and what she would think??? Or do you look for a mother figure in a mate????..If mom was a housewife...do you look for a stay at home mate??? if she was a corporate exec...do you search for the exec type???....what if she was docile, quiet as a church mouse...and sat on the front church pew...do you fellows look and compare...


Can we women hear from the fellows???????

I consider my mother a superwoman. She raised me, earned a masters degree, teached, & took care of her husband. She didn't take any disrespect from anyone. Some men learn the weaknesses of women from watching their mother being mistreated. Well I don't know how to mistreat a woman because my mother wouldn't stand for it. That's why I hate vulnerable women. I love women with little bitch in them. My father respected his wife's opinion. When I found out my ex-wife couldn't live up to that standard I knew I got the short end of the stick.

My mom raised me and my three brothers and we all are educated and successful. She basically didn’t work outside the home until I was about 12. She also made the point known that her mother never worked a day in her life. Never had too. Mom taught us one thing, for sure, how to take care of ourselves. Mom always let us know that Pop was the king pin and had the last and final word with regard to the family. If he said no, it wasn’t happening. Mom would never disrespect my father with foul words at least in front of us. Mom made a big point of always being trim and looking good when ever leaving the house. She told us that my father told her when they got married, if she was ever to get fat, he would leave her. Mom made the house a home.

How did that affect me, good and bad. I tend to rely solely on my own abilities. In a relationship that can be bad. I get turned off quick by a woman with a big mouth. I view it as disrespect when a woman tries to talk me into something that I have already made a decision on. I don’t tell a woman what to do, because I don’t expect a woman to tell me what to do. I have no tolerance for a thick headed woman. I don’t cross the line an tell any woman how to be a woman or mother, and I expect the same. I guess I'm attracted to and feel most comfortable with a simple woman that’s good looking and respectful.

so I guess overall...our parents really do have a important role when it comes to matters of the heart!!!

I was my Momma's favorite child, and though I can't say i was a Momma's boy in the traditional sense, I did live to make her proud, and I always was the one to stop when everyone else was too busy and see if she need anything. Unfortunately, one of those things was cigarettes, and I used to surprise her with a case every now and then when I came home from college, and which ended her life way too soon. It certainly did teach me about respecting women, just witnessing my parents' relationship ( and I don't mean positive examples) Being a Momma's boy kept me off the streets and on the right track.

I can certainly say that I did not look for her traits in a mate. Meeting my wife was a fateful occurrence... I couldn't possibly have picked someone so wonderful on purpose.
