Let's back up a bit. What happened to his last girlfriend . . . and the one before that? At age 30, I doubt that you're his first sweerheart. When a man hits 30, without ever having been married, there's only a handfull of reasons why. One of them is when a guy is way overly attached to his mother. I strongly suspect that's what you're dealing with. His mother was already giving you the cold shoulder. I bet she disliked every girl he ever dated.

That woman has had 30 years to work on her son. He is the way she wants him to be. If he hasn't emancipated himself from maternal control by now, it's unlikely he ever will.
