I'm close to my mum as well. One thing she used to do that absolutely boiled my piss every time was that she would get overly chummy with the parents of whatever lass I was seeing and then kept considering them her friends even after a lass and I broke up.
It happened a few different times, but starting at the beginning, when I was 15, I had a somewhat brief romance with a lass who lived 250 miles away (we had met on holiday that summer), and as far as I was concerned, it was finished after about two to three months because realistically, how do you keep up a relationship over 250 miles in any kind of meaningful way at that age. Anyway, a few weeks later, my mum suddenly invited their whole family to spend an entire weekend at our house. Which they did, including who I thought of by that point as my ex. If that. Nobody ever asked me, mind. My own mum never fucking asked me if I felt like that was ok. And so, the entire weekend ended up being nothing but abject awkwardness. With a lass who saw it as her big chance to win me back, while I was having none of it and just wished for it to be over.
And then another time, somebody really broke my heart after a four-year relationship by breaking up with me, and the only way for me to cope was to break off all contact with her. Because it was all so painful that I felt I had to cut her out of my life completely and put all of my energy into looking ahead and moving on, as far away from her as possible. Which a therapist later assured me quite emphatically was probably the absolute right thing for me to do at that point. But not that my mum seemed to care, because she kept doing things with my ex's parents, like visit them for tea or for their birthdays. At some point, almost a year later, she was even going to go on an actual fucking holiday with them and a group of people. That's when I lost it and said to her that if she was going on that holiday, then that would be the last she'd see of me. To her credit, she then actually cancelled her reservations. But it was something that she could just never fully get into her head. That you can't just act like nothing happened with somebody's parents when your son and their daughter are no longer seeing each other.
