I was in a relationship where my gf was codependant on her mom. Her mom got in the way I feel and if she could not have a good time neither could we. Her mom had a bf but she butted into ours and my gf and her mom would be on the fone at least 6 times a day, or her mom would come over cause she lived 2 doors down. now am regretting leaving the relationship. did I do the right thing? am so confused

Well, if you can work it out give it another try. Just keep in mind the Mother is always going to be in the picture.

If you do work it out, you might give moving some thought.

You left because you recognised your partner was codependent?

Would you have preferred she transferred that dependency to you?

Was your girlfriend quite young?

Was this the first live-in relationship your partner had been in?

How long did you live together?

Were you aware that she may have been unhappy?

Were you honourable in the relationship?


So many variables to a rather judgemental assumption that your partner was codependent...

Is her mother unwell,alone, extremely close to her daughter?

Did your partner have children?
