      @@speakingtruths4215 blah blah everyone says something is easier said than done, but it is not. She has a CHOICE one that I and everyone else can see will not end great for her and another choice that will eliminate the guaranteed future headache and she can get back out there and choose a better future spouse. What you don't seem to get is in life we will all make mistakes but the point is to learn from them. He didn't learn he just shirked the responsibilities to his mom, instead of him sitting down getting real with the bills and situation and get himself out of what he got himself into by doing the exact same thing he is now, not holding himself accountable or being the responsible adult he should be. Additionally, maybe you didn't know that the leading cause of divorce is money, and it may very well be the reason why his previous marriage ended. From your response you are likely in this same situation, and guess what I have the same advice I have for you as I have for her, RUN.

    I agree with you guys. My husband, now ex, chose to remain a child in his mothers house and not a man in his own. I insisted we have a joint account, he only agreed if I compromised and had it at his bank, He brought me the documents to sign. I later learned I was never owner on the account with my husband even though my name was on the checks. HIS mother was his joint account holder. Once I figured that out, I opened my own account elsewhere. BTW, they gave us an allowance as if we were children, from our own money! We never owned anything together as a couple when it came to property. SHE NEEDS TO WALK AWAY! AND NOT LOOK BACK!

    Co-dependency is the new form of relationship these days and this need to change as it has completely damaged our society. Everyone needs to be single independent on their own for awhile before entering a healthy relationship. There needs to be an equal amount of give and take in all relationships including work, love and family or it will always be imbalanced. Takers attracts givers and givers attract takers. I really wish the school system would teach this stuff to kids early on but the system itself is broken internally.

      Not necessarily a school's responsibility! Home life examples from parents are more appropriate teachers. Sadly many come from broken or dysfunctional homes that did not convey what a healthy relationship should be. Fortunately, Tiffany has good instincts to recognize a problem that clearly exists BEFORE the marriage. The risk is a soon to be "wedding dream" she has already invested in would overshadow her common sense of the longer-term marriage struggles that are ahead with MIL.

      @@carlaritchie331 I agree it's totally not all the schools responsibility, it should taught first at home. Yet the schools need to warn the kids of co-dependency and toxic relationships to recognize the patterns and the RED FLAGS. The dysfunctional parent won't bring it up since they think it is normal, since they have the emotional intelligence of a broken child raising broken children. Humanities most toxic humans are in their own home, and not just roaming the streets and sitting in a cargo van after school looking for their lost dog Spot. Knowledge is Power..

    I have a feeling mommie dearest is taking a little off the top for her retirement and bills. When you don’t have agency over your finances, there’s an increased risk for abuse. I would not be surprised, if there were discrepencies in the accounting.

  • @dete503

    This far into it, get pre-marriage counseling. That probably won’t work though unless he makes serious changes. It’s healthier to cut your losses. Do not marry this man.

    I am kind of going through a similar situation with my boyfriend. Him and his mom share a checking account and my boyfriend deposits his checks into that joint account. His mom knows everything he purchases, reads his mail, etc. He helps support her because she can no longer work. I care about my boyfriend and try to stay out of it as much as possible because it is sort of not my business, but at the same time, if he were to ever ask me to marry him, a lot of things would have to change first as it relates to finances. Sometimes I don't know what to do because I feel conflicted about it. He's a great guy but his mom feels too involved in his finances. :/

    • @shutupandeatasmr4498
      @shutupandeatasmr4498 3 года назад +6

      If she can no longer work she is probably getting government assitance of some sort. He can assist from a far. He doesn’t need to share an account and girl, just don’t do it. She will forever be mooching off not just her son but YOU once you marry him. Since it will be both of your money. Cut your loses and keep it moving.

    • @shutupandeatasmr4498
      @shutupandeatasmr4498 3 года назад +5

      I say to move on because you shouldn’t wait for him to hopefully change one day. If he is set in his ways it won’t work and if he sees you as trying to wedge your way into him and his moms “business”, then he will choose her over you.

      If you and he have a good relationship where trust has been established, you both should be able to discuss this topic and get to know each others views and long-term vision on future financial management before making a marriage commitment.

  • @brianpitsilides5337
    @brianpitsilides5337 3 года назад +21

    I think this is evidence of a much deeper issue. Mockery is probably not the best approach. The fact that she has already agreed to marry him knowing this is very telling about her. I would get them both to a good counselor to work through obvious character flaws both together and separately. To say that it's because his mom loves him has nothing to do with it. There is something much deeper here. I wish everyone in this situation the best.

      @Marka L I think there is a time and a place to laugh at the failure to launch 37y/o, but this show isn't solely for entertainment. John prides himself on his counseling background. It's important to realize these are the lives or real people who need guidance.

      @@YPEFFLE agreed, but there's the obvious question as to why she wanted to marry him in the first place. She needs to work thru this in order to avoid terrible choices in the future.

    i disagree with most people here saying just automatically leave him, at least give the dude an ultimatum and let him see it from your perspective, be understanding and let him know that, you know what he went through but he needs to outgrow the past.
    If he still doesnt want to divorce his mother, then you RUN lol.

    The fact that she is considering marrying him = she's crazy as fawk! Either Tiffany must be very unattractive or has some learning disability. 37 yrs old? I would have dropped him like a bad habit as soon as he mentioned his attachment to his mother. I'd leave him to the Tiffany's of the world.

    I hope she considers extending her engagement because this needs to be resolved before they get married. They may lose money by postponing the wedding but a divorce will be far more costly. He needs to show he is capable of managing his own money and setting boundaries with mommy.
