writes:How can I tell my mom I broke up with my now ex boyfriend? I had broken up with him once in the beginning of April because I had found him to clingy for me, I told my mom and she called me a lesbian because he was a sweet good looking boy and that I should have told her how I was feeling about him sooner so that she could get used to the idea of us not dating because we had done a lot together in the 3 months we were together, like go to a concert and. Rodeo, which she took us too, so she grew to love him. She was also very mad that I did because his great grandfather just passed away the morning after I broke up with him, but I hadn't told my mom until later that day after his great grandfather passed. We just broke up two hours ago because I feel like I'm leading him on and I just want space for a while, problem is, I don't know how to tell my mom. We're gonna wait until Monday to tell our parents but I don't know what to tell her. Can anyone help?

 I would only tell her when you are breaking up for good. Looks like now you are getting fresh air and will get back with him after things calm down. I believe that if you are getting back together to break up again you are not right for each other. Tell your mother you are not sure if he is the one for you, and that you just want her to acknowledge this but you don't want her input.

 You just need to be honest with her and tell her you just did not have feelings for him and he is not the man for you. Tell her you did not want to be leading him on.
At the end of the day this is your relationship not hers and she needs to respect your decision. Growing up many people have several relationships until they find the right partner, she just needs to accept this. She sounds childish if she is going to be calling you a lesbian just because of a break up.

 I believe that you have a cloudy view of who does what, in life....
YOU are dating this guy. Your MOTHER is not. YOU have broken up with this guy. Your MOTHER has not....
You need to be sure that you don't let your Mother's attempts to vicariously re-live HER youthful days through YOU influence just how you do live your youthful days.
WHAT is the question here???
