‘I Love a Mama’s Boy’ Has Shown Me Everything I Don’t Want in a Relationship

The show's title, I Love a Mama's Boy, speaks for itself. It highlights women trying to deal with dating a man who is a little too close to his mother, and we get to see just how close these mother-and-son duos really are. The term, "Mama's boy" is pretty self-explanatory; this is somebody who is more attached to his mother than is the norm, and the mom is usually overbearing and overstepping boundaries in her son's personal relationships. These mothers tend to insert themselves into the lives of whoever their son is dating, treat them like a baby, and, as shocking as this sounds, there is always a mother and son who act like a couple.
