You think you met the man of your dreams, you are two peas in a pod.  But there is one catch he is living at home with his mother and taking care of her.  Could you handle splitting your time between his job and his mom?

A lady is finding herself torn on whether or not she is being selfish because she wants her man all to herself and doesn’t know if she can share him with his mother, so she asked Sam Sylk, radio host of The Sam Sylk Show on 93.1 WZAK during his daily 1 pm Reality Hour segment.  She wanted to know if she was blocking her blessings?  Sam Sylk says yes.

Check out the young lady reality problem and Sam’s harsh reality below.

Dear Sam

I met a guy and we’ve been talking for less than a month. We are both in our 50’s. I want nothing more than to be in a loving, respectful committed relationship, but I’m not desperate enough to rush into anything because it has to be a good fit. The problem I have with him is he lives at home with his mother even though he is taking care of his mother, it still doesn’t quite sit well with me. He has a good job, but his time is limited because of the situation, I’m used to dating men who are more independent. He tells me he has been praying to God for a woman like me. I’m a little leery because although we have great communication, same commitment goals, and a physical attraction, I just think the taking care of is mother thing could hinder our relationship in many ways. How can we travel together? If we decide to get married will I be inheriting this situation? He doesn’t understand my hesitation but he has agreed to wait however long it takes for me to get to where he is. Could I be blocking my blessings and am I being selfish?
