He Talks to Her Every Day
Now, I am not saying that a guy that talks to his mother every single day is horrible. In fact, for me, it's endearing, as I am close to my parents, however, it's when the phone calls of hers eclipse yours. If you've haven't been with your guy long enough to really see if he is a mama's boy,
it's crucial to note how he prioritizes those daily conversations. Sure, checking in with mom is sweet, but if he's sharing details with her that you feel should remain between the two of you, it might be time for a chat. It's about finding that balance where he can still be that caring son without compromising the intimacy and trust in your relationship. And if his first reaction is to get defensive or rush to mother for advice on every little tiff you two have, that's a red flag. The key here is for him to respect boundaries and foster a healthy partnership with you while still maintaining a loving connection with his mom.

He Refers to Her for Major Decisions
When you're dating a guy, you two should be the major players in the decision making right? Do you find your guy constantly going behind your back and asking his mom's opinion about major decisions? Well ladies, if you find that your guy is valuing his mom's opinion over yours, it could be the truth. You gotta face facts and fess up – talk to him about it!

He Compares You to Her
A true mama's boy is actually just looking for a girl that fits his mother's mold. If you find that he is constantly comparing you to his mom, constantly stating that you are just like her – it might be a sign. You might want to take an inventory of how you two are alike and see if that is why he picked you to be with.
Compliments that revolve around attaining his mother's stature in cooking, cleaning, or decor tastes could be endearing at first. Yet, this tendency to evaluate and measure up can be stifling if the bar set is not your own. It's vital to establish your unique identity in the relationship, rather than simply mirroring his mother's image. Dialogue about individuality and boundaries could help foster a healthier dynamic where love is based on who you are, not a reflection of his maternal blueprint.

He Chooses Her over You
When you're with a guy, you should be his top priority, just like he's your top priority right? Well, when a guy is choosing his mom over you, it's not a good sign. It could be something as simple as he chooses the dish that she recommends at a restaurant over your recommendation. I promise, it gets old really fast and you shouldn't settle for someone that would rather date their mother!

She Cleans/Feeds Him Often
Having a great relationship with your mom is fantastic, but if the guy you're seeing is constantly over his mother's house and she's even doing little things, like his laundry, there could be a problem. After all, if you two are living together, he should be independent enough to do his own laundry and not depend on his mom! This is truly one of the biggest mama's boy signs!

If you have a harem of 40 women, you never get to know any of them very well.
He Reveals Private Information
It's one thing to talk to your mom about your relationship, but if you guys are having problems and his mom is constantly mentioning them to you, that could be a problem. Gossip is fine between girlfriends and even if a guy has a close knit group of guy friends, but with his mother? Not cool!
