Moma's Boy Boyfriend?

Question

Okay everyone, my co-worker needs your help.  She's been dating this guy for about 6 months, and they have a wonderful relationship.  the only bad thing?  he's a moma's boy, better yet, a "family boy".  His mom i a basketball coach, and he cannot miss 1 game, even if it landed on their 6 months anniversary.

He's 25, and he cannot spend 1 night away from home.  they can't go anywhere, or spend the whole night together, because his parents would know that he was with her, and that "oh my" he was having s*x!

My co-worker does not know what to do anymore.  How can she make him see that he needs to have a little more freedom - away from the family.  He'll cancel plans that they have, just because "mom called and needs me to..........".

Any ideas on what she could do to snap him out of it?  she wanted to go spend the weekend at the beach, but he can't cause he has to go home!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!  And it is for my friend, not for me - i'm married.

Thanks!

If you can't beat them, join them.  I think if she tries to take him away then their relationship will be history.  It's hard to change them especially when it comes to cutting the cord from Mom.  I think she just needs to deal with it and make the choice to accept it until.....or walk away.  I have a moma's boy and he doens't even live with her and I just deal with it.  When and if the day comes where we will be married I'm sure things will change.

This is a really difficult situation. I think that your co-worker should talk with him honestly and say that it is hard to her to live with someone that is so connected with the family and she wants to spend some time with him. Here in Brazil women doesn't like guys like this and if they prefer to be home with his mom and dad they usually end up the relationship after a month or less. 

Anyway, good luck for her and you.
