I won't go into any specifics, but there are a few items on your list that I could not understand why a guy would not want to do that. WHY not, I don't know.........

What is a mama's boy exactly? People always use that term, I don't understand whether this is a common thing (I mean girls dating a guy like this) and it has one definition, or many definitions, etc. Just was wondering if someone could enlighten me on that one finally, haha. I was just always guessing it meant he was more feminine or something? Or he was way closer to his mom than his dad? But if the latter was it, that wouldn't really be fair. I was equally close with both of my parents, just for different reasons, so I am wondering what it means if a guy is a "mama's boy."
No, feminine men are not necessarily Mama's Boy's...I guess a good description would be taking Mama his clothes to launder when he is capable himself, his Mama makes him a brown bag lunch and brings it to work for him, she reminds him when to get his oil changed in his car, when to set dental appointments...get the picture?
Verbal or physical abuse
a serious vice; drugs, gambling, etc.
Bigotry
a sudden adoption to extremes such as Born Again Christianity
The inability to accept personal responsibility for anything and always blaming others (the boss, his mother, etc.
The thinking that everything that happens is God's will. I need to be married to someone who can control their own destiny or at least try and not be complacent
A lack of interest in his heritage or the lack of one
Refusal to live in the city. I can't be married to a non urbanite.
No desire to travel - deal breaker for me. Travel is my passion

Based on what I've read by hanging out on the MIL stories board for the last several years, I think Alice's description on post #78 is more apt: the guy puts his mother; her wishes and opinions; first in his life ahead of everyone else.
Lordy, I read a story, some time back, where a man let his drunken mother take his daughter out for a ride on a motorcycle. Not only drunk, but no helmet or shoes on the kid. He was proud of having a Harley Mamma and overrode the objections of his wife and thoughts of safety for his own child. I bet if there had been a crash, with the child hurt or killed, he would have waved all guilt away from his mother and himself, saying "well, she didn't mean to do it, she just wanted to have fun with her granddaughter."
I don't know why women stick with those kinds of men - worse, tying themselves to the guy with a kid when they know good and well there will be MIL problems, but love makes people stupid
1) Someone that is estranged from or has poor family relationships.
Guess that leaves alot of women out.
I love my mom and dad, and Im on speaking terms with one uncle and aunt, but the rest of my blood family I don't willingly associate myself with. We just never 'bonded' when I was a kid, and it will always be that way.
Ive made my own little family out of old friends over the years.

So, after an evening of "romantic interaction," he says to her that he really likes her, feels they've got a good thing going, etc... He then tells her that he now feels as though he trusts her and can "be himself" around her. She's thinking, is he a cross-dresser or what?
So this 36-year old successful professional man then tells her that he still sucks his thumb and sleeps with his childhood "blanky." He was completely serious. She was out of there in 2 seconds flat.

Ah I see, so you mean it's like he has grown up but not really? Mom still does the chores and acts like he's a kid still or something?
I used to bring my laundry home for my mom to do on weekends when I was at college, because I was too lazy and busy to do it myself, haha. But we had maids back home who could do that stuff too, so I didn't feel bad about it really. My mom was definitely very protective and wanted to try to do everything she could, that's just how she was. But I don't have a mom now so I do everything myself more or less, haha. I mean nobody else is going to do it if I don't.
