Confided In My Mom..my Boyfriend Got Pissed.. Posted: 08-20-07 13:54pm
Well it all started when we went to my
folks for dinner and drinks. Everybody
drank a little too much and my boyfriend
and mom were having a conversation. I felt
a little sick so I went to the bathroom.
My boyfriend said something about me and
my mom told him that she knew he had a
kid. I had confided that to her because I
was heart broken when he told me so I
needed advice and someone to talk to. And
who better than my mother rite?
He got angry telling me that I wasn't
supposed to tell anyone. That I lost his
trust again and more than that?? I don't
have friends so I talked to her and it
pissed him off. So now I lost his
trust(again)
But I'm mad that with every argument we
have he says that. And I'm the one that
ends up trying hard to get it back:( I
think he does it to make me feel bad and
him to get a macho ego boost. Was I wrong
in confiding something like that to my
mom? He.ll probably grab his things and
leave the house but I think that will give
him time to let it sink in and see that it
was my mother I was confiding in and that
it wasn't wrong or anything. This happened
yesterday so I'm so hurt. Any help will
help

You have every right to confide in your
mom. Why is he so worried about people
knowing he has a kid anyway? He should be
proud of it.
If he has to be immature and throw a
tantrum, let him come back when he is
ready. Don't go chasing after him, you
have nothing to apologize for. You need
someone to talk to, too!!
Controlling who you talk to and who you
confide in is a warning sign of emotional
abuse. Don't let him do it, don't go
running back to him. Let him come to you
and apologize. Of course there are secrets
you might want to keep between the two of
you... but in this case, it just seems
silly that he would care.
