To dislike my mother's boyfriend

2 replies

My mother has been with her boyfriend for a few years now. In the beginning he was very nice to me but then it crossed the line when he started making jokes to my mum about how he had been sleeping with me whilst she was recovering from a serious illness.

He showers the family with gifts and I'm becoming concerned he is controlling my mother. He doesn't like any of her friends and didn't even visit the hospital the day she had a massive operation as one of these friends was visiting.

One of his friends made a comment about the fact that I was a full time carer and therefore 'wasn't working' to which I said I was quite annoyed. He took this as me insulting his friend and raised his fist to me saying I would see his true colors if I went to his house. This was said in front of all the family and no-one batted an eye lid. I left in tears and he has never apologised.

AIBU keeping my distance from this man and also being concerned for my mother?

Go NC with both him and your mum.

Absolutely distance yourself from him. He sounds vile and violent. I don't think I would have been able to get past him telling your mum he was sleeping with you. Its inappropriate and sick. What kind of man could ever pass that off as a joke. Protect yourself. Let your mum know you are there for her but you will not be threatened by boyfriend.
