Just curious...

Is your H a "momma's boy"? Are you a "daddy's girl"?

We've always spent a lot of time with H's family since we've been together. I've always known that he has been very close to his mom. Right now, with his parents going through a divorce, I understand why he wants to be there with her/for her whenever possible. But sometimes it feels like we're never home. Our poor apartment is suffering for it, too.

I would not say that I'm a "daddy's girl". I was definitely close to my dad when I was younger, but as I started getting into my pre-teens and teens, I spent a lot more time with my mom, because I felt like I could talk to her more/share more with her.

Re: Just curious...

  • I used to be a daddys girl and i could pretty much do no wrong. Ever since I left my now XH and married DH, I am almost a black sheep, (more like dark gray).

    As for DH, he talks to his mom almost every day, but he is in no way a mommas boy. 

    my read shelf:
    Cathy (CathyL7910)'s book recommendations, liked quotes, book clubs, book trivia, book lists (read shelf)
  • My husband is definitely a Mama's boy but it doesn't bother me at all. We go over every weekend. They took me in as one of their own right away, and I love his whole family.

  • i don't think either of us is either- his mom annoys him constintantly nagging < please confirm ect ect < she once emailed me right after i got off the phone with her to say it was nice talking to me- she seems to need the last word and likes hearing herself talk- she also talks over you so you cant get a word in....ahh this wasn't meant to be a rant lol)- he likes his dad better ( more laid back easy going)

    and i was the youngest of 7 so i didn't receive much attention as a child from my dad!

  • H is called the choosen one in his family (it's just his mom, his dad passed away 8 years ago of lung cancer).  But I wouldn't call him a mama's boy.  I usually have to remind him to call her.

    I am a daddy's girl.  I found out later, but when dad first met H, dad told him I'm spoiled and H can blame him for it.  My mom always did her own thing, dad and I watched TV together, went grocery shopping, cooked etc.  I have gotten closer to my mom lately, but I'll always be a daddy's girl.

  • H is, I think, more like his mother than his father, and is maybe a little closer to her, but I certainly wouldn't call him a mama's boy. I am absolutely not a daddy's girl, I have always been way closer to my mother.
