We've had many issues there. And yep I've called him a mamas boy. I've said to him during fights "If this is my future in marrying you then forget about it". Sad thing is I'm starting to sway towards those feelings.

Geez....you have to make him stick up for you?!? Maybe its a bit old school of me....but I think a man has a duty to defend his partner! Then again, I'm female and I'd defend my man and wouldn't let someone else walk all over him, either.
I think you should talk to him about it. If he's not open to communication, then I think you have your answer right there. And maybe the ex's mom wasn't trying to sabotage your relationship.....maybe she actually had a bit of sympathy in her heart when she reached out to you? I know its automatic to go into defense mode when an ex (or the ex's family/friends) badmouth your current partner, but sometimes people do actually want to warn the next in line so that they don't meet the same fate.
