iv been with my boyfriend for almost two months and im starting to question if we should stay together. we are perfect other than at times he is veryyyy immature and he is younger than me and a mamas boy. he asks his mom everything even advice about us, laughs at words 3yo's do and carrys a big red bookbag n puts it between us in the car saying its a barrior for a flood, wouldnt even let me buy a new lighter bc his mom wouldnt approve. he goes out of his way to talk to my mom ALOT and i hate my mom... but hes so sweet and im starting to love him, but i did just get out of a few year long serious relationship, should i ride it out or try and move on? and whats some advice as to how i can fix how he does all that?

Not only will you continue dating your boyfriend AND his mother, you'll be miserable because he doesn't have a mind of his own. He has to go to his mom about everything.
Like I said, I've dealt with this and never again.
& I let it go for so long that we had a nasty break up and it was all his mom...not him.
The older he gets, the worse this will grate on you. Immature and younger is one thing, mamma's boy is something else. He's got to grow out of that on his own. If you stay with him, one of two things will happen. Either you'll break up later because you expect him to stop being mother's little bitch and he doesn't, or you'll be the one who gets blamed when he does grow up a little bit and mommy has to blame someone for the fact her little boy doesn't worship her anymore.
Step out of that landmine of family drama now. You're 16, deal with that shit in your 20s when you might actually care about the guy in question to be thinking about settling down with him.
And honestly, don't date younger guys until the younger guy is at least drinking age. Men mature late when it comes to emotional intelligence, you're kneecapping yourself to date someone younger at 16. [ WittyUsernameHere's advice column | Ask WittyUsernameHere A Question ]
