I understand that it is possible to love a man who has overly clingy parents and not be willing to leave him just for that reason. divine makes a good point about him being still tied to apron strings. I agree, but I wouldn't expect you to break up over that. However, you do need to face that your guy is emotionally dependent on and involved with his parents to an unhealthy degree. If that wasn't the case, he would have long ago put up more appropriate barriers between his parents and himself. This is going to continue causing problems for you. You might want to have a heart-to-heart with him about this. Don't belittle him, but talk to him about how some things are between the two of you only. Don't expect him to change his parents. He can't. But he can change himself - a bit - if he understands how important it is and how wrong it is for his folks to be all up in his business as they are. This problem will come up about other things besides where you live.
