Hi Honey
Men and women are so different, in the way we think and the way we go about doing things.
Firstly one thing you should know is that this is not about YOU this is what is going on with Jeffery and how he is handling this situation. My feeling is that he does have feelings for you and because their is another girl involved he can not get his head round what to do so to him it seems easier to push you away albeit through his Mum which is not very masculine or adult like.
What I would normally suggest to my clients is that the first thing is to communicate with each other and in this case it seems he is not prepared for that as he is letting his Mother take control. I ask myself when is he going to take control of his life and be the Man because if he continues as he is will never have the true relationship a Man and a Woman should have. It does sound to me from her replies to you that she is a very controlling woman which is not a good space for a woman to be in.
How would it be if you let him go with love and know that sometimes people come into our life for a reason and maybe they will only stay for a short time and what we need to ask ourselves is "What did I learn from that relationship"? And if at anytime he feels he wants to see you again it will be for the right reasons and not through you pushing him. He will respect you a lot more for it, believe me honey.
I know when you are young and you give your love to someone and you think this is the one, that it can be hard when the other person is not behaving in the same way. Through my experiences I have learnt that you need to go through the hard times with men to find out who you truly are and what love is really all about.
Bear in mind is that men hate needy or controlling women. What I found out through my Relationship Training is that women are looking from their men for certainity, to be cherished and complimented. It is obvious that Jeff is not at this stage yet!
Would you want someone who did not give you these things?
After my husband announced to me that he had been unfaithful for our 25 years of marriage and we are now in the most beautiful relationship, we want to help others overcome their relationship challenges. One thing I had to do was take a look at myself and how had I been in the relationship and when you can be totally honest with yourself and each other that is when a relationship can become magical!

Be loving to yourself and remember you have lots of wonderful things to look forward to yet!
