Mom hands off my boyfriend6/7/2023 Six months after our great-granddaughter was born they broke up for the final time. They had a long history of breaking up and getting back together. We told our grandson that if they broke up, the furniture must stay with him. We let them both pick them out and spent about $1,200. We told our grandson we would buy him a crib, dresser and chest. Yes, it's a good idea to think before acting.īut the one time you got out of your head here, the one time you got into your heart/gut/other non-overthinking parts of your anatomy, the message was this: "We're so through."ĭEAR CAROLYN: When our grandson's girlfriend was pregnant, her mom threw them both a baby shower. Yes, his not holding your hand is a micro-reason to break up. There are a lot of specifics to talk about here, but I'm going general: Please don't talk yourself into anyone, for any reason. Another part of me feels like we can work through this, and all couples have incompatibilities.ĭEAR READER: When fate hands you "OK," you grab on and don't let go! I think I saw a cat meme on that. ![]() The relationship is otherwise progressing OK.Īny thoughts on how I should think through this? Part of me feels like we're so through. We're still trying to work it out, but I'm trying to sort out whether this should be a deal-breaker. I've given up on ever taking a romantic walk with him but I'm still upset about the no-touching-while-moving thing. I am not clingy, but holding hands to stay close while weaving through a crowd or crossing the street seems reasonable to me. He likes to be totally "unencumbered." Part of it seems to be his DNA and part a hang-up about any touch being a form of public displays of affection. If we're walking side by side or weaving through crowds, he does not want to hold hands or touch in any way. DEAR CAROLYN: My boyfriend has hang-ups about being touched in public.
