 How does she act like your mum?
it might be a good thing if it's nurturing and supportive
it might be a bad thing if she's overbearing and is wiping your mouth and cutting your food....especially in public...
is she combing your hair and tucking in your shirt?

 it's not a bad thing. Your gf wants only to care for u and she's just being attentive to your needs

 When boys were little they played with cars. Girls were given dolls.
So why do people think it is so weird that we act like mommies, when that's what we've been raised to do?
Find a girl who played with cars when she was little and who wasn't given the mommy-role over all her other siblings. Maybe a lone child. Then you probably wont have a girlfriend who acts like your mommy.
It's not in our nature any more than it is in a mans nature to care for the ones we love. But, when you add in that women are raised to be care-takers, be mommies, and to do household chores.. well, then this is what you get. It's very common. Start to do your own chores more routinely, or find a lazy girlfriend who doesn't care. In my opinion it is good that she cares for you, but you should also tell her when she crosses the line. A girlfriend doesn't really want to be like your mother, we don't. But many feel like they HAVE to, somehow, if the man can't take good enough care of himself, to the standards we were raised to have.
Me for example, I can't stand a grown man who wont eat vegetables. Maybe I sound like a mommy when I want my men to eat their greens, but in my eyes they are small children if they don't. And I want a man, not a little boy. So no, I don't want to be like a mommy, but I feel like I have to if the man acts like a child.
