[quote=Anonymous]Hey there!

So, I've been dating a great guy for 2 years. We do not live together but stay at each others places frequently.
His family lives 2hrs away.  When he goes to visit them for a weekend, I usually come along (as long as I don't have work or other commitments).
We have a ton of fun, hang out. It's all good.  We've even been talking about getting engaged!

Here's the goofy part.

Whenever his family comes up to visit for a weekend, it's like he disappears. I don't hear from him the entire time, he barely responds to texts.
He makes plans and does stuff with them (doesnt' always include me, or makes the plans then says "you can come too").

I didn't think much of it the first year. But now we are ending 2 years together and entering 3 years and talking about marriage.

I've asked him about it and he says, "if my family (could be just his mom, or could be his mom, sister and her husband/kids) comes to see me, I take the time to make it a nice personal visit. You shouldn't be offended because I want to spend tiime with me family.  They come first in my life"

Ok...................

When will he consider ME family?  His sister and mom text me and often say (of course it's after they did stuff)  "wish you could have joined us" 
And that's HOW I know they did stuff, or what they did.

So, I said to him, "I'm not offended, I feel left out."
He said, "I'm not leaving you out, but my mom gave birth to me, she will always come first in my life"

So..................

Now I'm a little concerned that he's a mama's boy and where would he prioritize his wife and kids if that were to happen some day?

And go!
