You may want to research the "Jocasta Complex" (the mother of Oedipus). This seems the most applicable diagnosis for your sitution.

Asking you to ignore the problem and run from these people doesn't solve the issue. Psychotherapy will help in a huge way. Forget Psychologists, CBT, DBT etc. It is classic Oedipus Complex, but even Freud was flawed. I highly recommend the works of James Hollis. His books explain your troubles in great detail and will help you understand/defeat the the problem. I'm currently working with a young man who insists that apart from birth his mother 'Is just a women who he's fallen in love with'. Very unsettling indeed, but, ultimately he will be treated and fingers crossed will get over this fascination.

PS - I would suggest his mother also has a huge PD issue. Personality disorders sadly seem to last a lifetime. You will never win a debate/argument with someone who has severe BPD (not to be confused with Bipolar disorder). I sincerely hope you manage to resole the issue.
