For the most part but not ALWAYS, folks who don't have healthy family relationships have usually, but not ALWAYS had issues maintaining healthy relationships. I know 100% of men who I know who had\have issues with their mother, have never maintained a healthy relationship with women. Having a relationship and having a healthy relationship is very different.Unfortunately for him, his family is not very supportive. He has no realtionship with any of them, with the exception of a younger brother who he took in after their mother threw him out. That makes things much more difficult because he doesnt have a strong support system and not many reliable friends that can help him through. Hopefully he will find the strength to deal with it all on his own.
I didn't realized that until I was divorced. Ex and his mother have a very twisted relationship, yes it is a relationship but is isn't healthy at all. He had a better (healthier) relationship with his grandmother and after she passed that is when WE went down hill.
