Mother-in-law-ish
My boyrfriend and I have been together now for about five years, I am 24 and he is 25. We are pretty serious about eachother.
Since he was 17 my boyfriend has been living with a woman named Claire. Claire, is his ex- girlfriends' mother. At first, I thought that this was weird, as he was living with his ex-girlfriend and her mother. Just to clarify the situation, he is still in contact with his biological mother, who is more than lovely.
Claire, has always been very obsessive over him. Demanding that she spend time with him and not with me. However in the last two years, we have fallen out with eachother, over little things.
Since then, she has been acting really strange towards him, almost inscestual behviour towards him,its werid as I suppose she is a mother figure. They go to the movies together, and watch films in the house. She buys him expensive gifts, and takes time off work to go shopping with him for the whole day, to buy him all these things. So far it ranges from a computer-ps3-wii-ipod-iphone...
What worries me is that, when she does not get to spend any time with him, say he is over my house or whatever. She cries, and goes off in a mood. She also texts him whilst he is with me, asking if he is ok, and does he have anytime for her.
Once I slept over her house, and she sat in her car in the early hours of the morning and cried for ages, not before throwing bedding at us and shouting.
I'm pretty sure this obsessive behaiour is abnormal. it's affecting my relationship with my boyfriend, and is exasabated by the fact that now she won't speak or so much as acknowledge my existence.
She sends him flirtatious text messages, and I know that I shouldn't find it creepy, but they cuddle up to eachother wit him resting his head on her chest when they sit down on the sofa!Im not sure whether she wants a son or a boyfriend!
Please help me, I'm at my wits end. this woman, treats me like dirt, and smothers my boyfriend. It makes me feel terrible. I have tried confronting her, but she denies everything, and continues her behaviour.
I dont know if i want to start a life with him, if she is going to get in the way.
What should I do? Any help is really appreciated!

Be sure he wears a condom.
So the problem is him... and YOU! How do you allow that? You should make him open his eyes and leave that woman's house. If he refuses, you should leave him!
either he leaves her
or you leave him
hope it all works out
This is creepy and just plain weird. He must leave her as soon as possible and if he doesn't want to, I think you should leave him. I'm really sorry but it takes two to work out a relationship. If he prefers to be with Claire, then you shouldn't put up with it.
I think you need to ask your boyfriend what is the closest thing to sexual he's done with this woman. He doesn't seem to be aware of the situation and should know that this behavior isn't normal, especially when you are his girlfriend. I think you should tell him to tell his cougar friend to treat you with respect. If he isn't willing to let go of these freebies from the cougar and possibly move back home with his mother, then dump him. He just wants to be a tool. It's not healthy for them to be under the same roof if she's crazy about him.
You go on and on about her. But what about him? What kind of guy exploits a needy woman like this - his ex-girl friends mother? And drags his current girl friend into it?
Oh and how he must enjoy the competition. Probably wants you 2 to mud wrestle over him.
This is so pathetic. Either dump this for the loser he is, or stay with him & in doing so, you'll have accepted & deserve every bit of it.
