He comes to me asking if he could keep his baby blanket and bring it with him when moving into my place. Iβm completely fine with it, I have my stuffed animal from when I was a baby.
It wasnβt until yesterday that I discovered his baby blanket isnβt actually a blanket, itβs his momβs robe when she was nursing him. Obviously I was thrown off and frankly weirded out.
He then told me he also likes to sleep with it and would like to continue to sleep with it when he moves in. βWe can cuddle together with itβ was his exact words.
Your modern moid, ladies and gentlemen, nothing weird to see here.

The only halfway acceptable explanation is his mother died when he was like 5.

Died at 5 and he doesn't sleep with it. He keeps it in a box tucked away in a closet and only brings it out to quietly weep into it once a year with no one around to see him.
Toxic masculinity needs to come back in a big way. This Norman Bates behavior should have been bullied out of him by 16.

She's alive. I wonder if she knows about the robe thing?

I'm incline to make an exception just this one time. Although it's obviously weird as heck.
